The Miss America pageant was a blast! It was my first time in Vegas, too, so it was all very exciting. The first few days we were out there, the contestants had appearances. We modeled in a fashion show, attended dinner receptions and a private screening of Dreamgirls, and also had a night out at Planet Hollywood. During the day, we rehearsed for the show.
At the end of the week, we had preliminary competitions in all categories. I was the very first interview then I competed in swimsuit, eveningwear, talent and onstage question. It was nice to finally be standing on stage after six months of anticipation!
Although I didn't place, competing at Miss America was one of the most memorable experiences of my life thus far!
Congratulations to Lauren Nelson, Miss America 2007! The title was well deserved!
