Lots of different groups have someone in the running...fun! Go Miss Iowa!

Gabby Douglas didn't look too impressed with Miss California's gymnastics dance...the Olympics are a pretty tough act to follow.

Odds to win the title...

Miss Maryland was...not good.

Agreed.

I have yet to like any of the singers..... :O

Some of these talents...hmm.

I haven't mocked any of the talents since Miss Michigan Kaye Lani Rae Rafko won with hula dancing back in 1987. I remember audibly groaning when they announced her talent, but she won! So, I figure, what do I know?

Yes, very...interesting performances so far.

The way they've been doing the talent segment for the last few years does the singers no favor. Why can't they do it like they do the rest of the categories: announce the names of those who are moving on, break, then talent? Give the singers time to warm up!

I'm sure that's part of it.....some of them I just wasn't impressed with their arrangements :cool:

I can't believe Miss Maryland made it through after her talent. I'd have put Miss Iowa through instead.

I am on call at work, so of course, I'm busy.

Is Miss SC still in the running?

Yes! Final 7 now :)

Agreed again.

I think Savvy is going to take it....

Honeychile - Miss SC is first runner-up!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Agreed x2

I think Savvy has it

Congrats to Miss Arkansas!

WOOHOO! KNEW it! Congratulations to all KKG ladies!

Miss Arkansas, Savvy Shields, Kappa Kappa Gamma, University of Arkansas

Whew!!!! :)

Yay! Congrats to Miss Arkansas!

Miss Arkansas! Our 3rd winner and 2nd UA Greek woman after Donna Axum - Miss America 1964 Was a Delta Delta Delta.

I know, right? I was afraid it was going to be Miss Maryland when she was in the final three at the end.

Yep...when they panned past the three and she had that pursed lips/no smile expression, I thought "Yikes!"

I am so glad that the winner is a confirmed NPC woman!

Congratulations to Miss Arkansas and Kappa Kappa Gamma!

Well, I'm ecstatic that Savvy brought it home for KKG!
I also know Miss Iowa from dancing with her when we were younger (she played Clara and I was a girl at the party in a local production of the Nutcracker) and she is just a wonderful lady with a great heart and a great family. She makes Iowa proud.

Savvy Shields was at the 2016 CMA Awards on 11/2.
