Is it even legal to NOT have a Ms. Mississippi in the final five?

Last year's Miss Mississippi, Chelsea Rick, was only Top 15.

Congrats to Miss New York!
Just have to guess that her interview was amazing because seriously that talent was not.

Has there EVER been a threepeat in Miss America History?
ETA: I guess that the judges went for an Interview Queen this year.

Congrats to her, but I have to ask...
 Why have a talent portion?

Agreed. The best talents by any definition weren't seen tonight:
KY, CT, TX and IA.

I was listening but not watching. Which question did she answer? I thought they all did remarkably well in that stage. The last (campus rape) one wasted too much time in build up but she was still on target.

Theoretically, though it counts the largest percent of all parts, someone could have a higher score if they did outstanding on every part but talent than someone who didn't do as well on the other parts but had a better talent performance.
