Suzette charles is of west indian and italian american descent.
In my humble opinion, I believe that suzette charles was vastly moretalited on the night of the pageant then was vanessa williams. Of course, I realize a lot more goes into judging who will be miss america than strictly the talent but I think that suzette really deserved at that night. I guess if anything might have hurt her. It was her height, but she was absolutely stunning and very articulate and could sing like a bird. Maybe fate or the felt the same way. And ultimately found a way to get Her The Crown.
Back when the pageant was a PAGEANT and actually fun to watch!
She took over when Vanessa Williams had to step down, I think..? And I remembered this spell-binding performance!!! Perfection ๐
I love Vanessa Williams and agree she was the right choice overall. But this girl here sounds as good if not better than Striesand herself!
Still one of the best talents in the ""MA""… seized the moment with grace…๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝโค๏ธ๐๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ๐๐ผ…..
Any other year- she would have nailed it. Two exceptional women competing in the same year- only one could win.
Excellent performance. She was good. I think it was probably only a few points between Vanessa and Suzette. Vanessa just had that star appeal.
Absolute class and charm and one of the best Miss America talent we have EVER had ! God bless our wonderful Miss America Suzette Charles โค
SUZETTE CHARLES DID BECOME MISS AMERCIA AFTER VANESSA LEFT
What a great voice โค๏ธ๐
Damn…this is actually a better performance than Vanessa's by like 5 inches
This was just so beautifully done. She has an awesome voice. Bravo ๐
Beautiful
A good performance a little Streisandish which is always good
Bravo!
She should have won!
Suzette Charles is a Miss America to be proud of and one of the best singers they have EVER had! God bless Suzette Charles!
Best talent
Outstanding, wow!
She is actually the most sweetest person you ever meet. I met her and that's something that I will never forget. I will keep that forever and never forget it I actually have a picture from when her and I met right in my bedroom and I look at it everyday and it makes me happy that I actually got a chance to meet my Miss America. And it's just really awesome how 1984 my year has two Miss America's I consider them my both of them my Miss America I love Suzette and I love Vanessa and I just find that awesome that I have to miss America's and anybody else that was born in 1984 has two Miss America's only time 1984 which is awesome
Both Suzette and Vanessa sang Barbra and they both excelled.
She can sing like nobody's business but she looks like the meanest person on the earth.
Wow she can sing, lol she sang better than Vanessa both were good
Personally I like the song however I think that there were moments in the song when I think that she over did the notes. The notes were either sold loud or she held the notes to long.
