Was Miss Iowa the one who spoke backwards? If so, yes, that dress was beautiful, but not on her.
We've had dozens of disputes over Misses PA/NJ/NY - women who went to school in one state so could represent it. The one that's outstanding in my memory is one Miss PA who lived in NJ, but took THREE credits in a Philadelphia Community College!

I couldn't stand Arkansas's gown...way too flashy for me, IMO.

That was Arkansas.
Georgia's voice seems to fade into the background of the music.

You mean not telling everyone who the finalists are and THEN having them do their talents? I agree.
I hope they at least told the finalists back stage so that girls aren't waiting back stage to do their talent and never being called.

Isn't this what they did last year? It obviously hasn't been aired here yet, but I'm not sure if I'm going to watch it later, so I'm relying on you guys.
Last year they had the girls sit off to the side, and revealed who the finalists were when it came time for them to do their talent.

Some of them - Miss Hawaii has been a competitive Hula Dancer for 18 years (it said).

Eh, I think it's kind of cruel to have them sit there in front of everyone, in their costumes, when they could be keeping limber or whatever.

Miss California looked really surprised to be called, so I'm thinking they had no idea they would be called.. that's crazy

All of the efforts to make the pageant more modern and relevant- I still think some of the talents are a snooze...
I appreciate the efforts to revamp, but it almost seems like they're trying TOO hard to say "hey, we're hip, we're cool and modern". I also love how Mario always has to say "these beautiful, talented, intelligent women" or some variation. Mario, we know you've already hit on at least half the contestants...
