As for wearing another dress, they have the preliminaries, she probably wore a red dress for the the pre-lims and was saving this one for the actual competition.

I personally thought she was robbed. Her answers on the final two questions were amazing, but she got fourth. Yet, Japan, who didn't even answer her questions correctly (ie. she didn't answer what she was actually asked) made it to 1st runner up. WTF?!? That makes absolutely no sense to me.

I thought Puerto Rico's dress was absolutely hideous. I'm sorry as a judge I'd be looking at the dress and how they carry the dress off and what it looks like as a factor. Because let's face it they are all beautiful women so "looks" really can't be a determining factor. I mean during the swimsuit I was actually looking at how they were carrying themselves and if they looked like they actually ate.

I think this is probably why I appreciate the Miss America pageant more, because they do more interview questions, a talent portion and the girls recieve scholarships to continue their education.

Question (because I'm to lazy to look for the Miss USA thread), is Tara greek?

The whole Miss USA circuit has cut the interview portion to counting for very very little. It's all about the evening gown etc.
