Did anyone else watch Miss Teen America on Friday night? Miss South Carolina was a finalist, and I thought she was a shoo-in until she choked on the Question part. I felt so bad for her, not knowing that...


She is an ADPi at Clemson! Her name is Lindsey Sporrer, and I'll let you judge the rest:


Congratulations to Lindsey, for being a Finalist!!

Miss Teen South Carolina is an ADPi named Lindsey? But the news says that Miss Teen SC was named Lauren Caitlin Upton...I'm confused.

ETA: Mystery solved: Lindsey Sporrer was in the top 15 of the 2004 Miss Teen pagent!

Mystik - you just beat me to it!

Lindsey is the 2004 Miss Teen South Carolina. She is a member of our Zeta Nu chapter at the Clemson. It doesn't look like Lauren Caitlin Upton is a member .

Thank heavens! I truly felt sorry for Lauren Caitlin Upton - you just know that she'll be kicking herself for the rest of her life!

I didn't watch the pageant but I found a thread (entertainment forum) with a link to her Q&A on youtube. I was shocked. I literally was thinking "how stupid is this girl". I mean I get that the girls are nervous and stuff but from what I know about pageant these girls also TRAIN and to get to Miss Teen USA most have spent years doing local pageants. Her answer was just beyond stupid. EXiADPi said that it looked like Mario Lopez was trying not to laugh at her answer.

I can totally see anti-pageant folks use her answer as an example of that "girls should be focused on thier studies and not pageants".

It reminded me of watching Miss Universe. Watching that pageant, during the Q&A is just a train wreck waiting to happen. The only ones who usually "understand" the questions are the contestants who speak fluent English. I don't know what happens mid-translation but I just love how the contestants give an answer that has absolutely nothing to do with the question (hence Lauren).

But hey if she ever makes it to Miss Universe (as Miss USA), she should remember to just give a stupid answer that has nothing to do with the question and she'll win (since the last couple of Miss Universes haven't answered their questions "correctly" and end up winning).

What cracks me during the Miss Universe pageants is when they ask for an interpreter, and the interpreter says something different than the contestant!

Yahoo News has a follow up story...here's the link: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070828/...south_carolina

And while she's currently not a sister, she *could* still wind up as a sister of ours!
