I WAS WAITING FOR YOUR RECAP!!!! YAY!! AGREE ON A LOT OF THE THINGS YOU MENTIONED!! Btw Liz seemed out of it lol. I love that your a pageant enthusiast before a beauty queen because you get really detailed in your commentary rather than just a basic “she’s good” or “she’s bad” etc etc
When New Mexico answered I was so sad...it wasn't great and with NC doing so well it just wasn't going to be her night. But I feel like NM would have a great look for Universe.
Victoria Wejko quite honestly, what if NC nailed the question? NM didn’t bomb her answer like SC Teen 2007. I thought she did fine! Why should the best final word win? When did the competition become Miss Interview Queen? If people are nitpicking NM’s answer, then I find a lot of things to nitpick NC!! Her walk was stiff as hell!! Her face is not a Miss Universe face. Just that alone makes her undeserving of the title. How can she be Miss USA? She will not do well at Miss Universe. I find it amusing when people pick on NM’s answer and blame it on that as the reason why she lost and yet they totally overlook NC’s flaws. She didn’t have the best performance last night. She can’t even walk!! Her face pales in comparison to NM, FL, KS, Minnesota, CA, GA, etc! It is ridiculous that she won because “she nailed the final word.” Oh please, let’s be real here, this is a beauty pageant, this isn’t Miss Interview Queen! She is not running for political office for Pete sakes!
I loved Miss Oklahoma from the start. Fantastic young lady. Her work with the Chickasaw nation should be noted and I wish more people knew about it. Fantastic job. Enjoyed watching your videos. Thanks again 😊
So, I am competing in National American Miss for my state, and I was wondering if we have to wear a different outfit for personal introduction and interview or can it be the same exact outfit?
Dani Walker I was wondering because the personal introduction competition is on a different day than the interview competition. P.S. Thank you so much 😊
Miss NC did her thing all the way through. She was extremely consistent with her determination! She just shines and is so confident! And can we talk about her hair. So stunning! Talk about breaking barriers in the pageant industry. She does that and I love everything about what she brings to the Miss Universe Organization. Her accomplishments speak so much volume. Much love Miss NC! And congratulations to the other ladies also. What an awesome group of ladies. 💖
Roy Garcia I was not referring to her being black when I said breaking barriers. As a matter of fact, I never even put black, African American or any other race/ethnicity in my post. You added that to the message not me. I was referring to her hair and accomplishments. A curly fro is has not necessarily been popular in the states. I was not referring to just skin color. She is also the first attorney to win. And she doesn’t have the average look that people see Miss Universe to normally have. So there you go. Now, I encourage you to go back and read what I wrote again and read carefully so you will not misinterpreted my words again. Thanks.
Dragoslav Vega, Brazilian-American Nationalists I never said black, African American or any other race or ethnicity in my post so I’m not sure who you are referring to here. Please don’t do that on Dani’s channel. She is so positive and negativity is not what she wants here and neither do I. Please exit if you have no respect for other people. Thank you.
Dani it was awesome to meet you in person with that gold number head to toe -you’re even more fabulous in person. Blaise looked awesome too🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 I hope you like the picture I took of the both of you
Jamil Johnson remember when seal sang to the queens at Universe though? Last year they sang to the top 3. It was a special moment to be serenaded. I like it 💕
I love love LOVE Miss NC as our new Miss USA. I had her in my top 10 after prelims but after watching the competition progress she easily fell into my top 3. 2 of the top 3 (OK & NM) were in my original top 5 after prelims so I am soooo pleased with the results. Miss NC reminds me of my daughter so I’m likely a bit biased on how beautiful I think she is, nonetheless I believe she’s absolutely stunning! FACTS! I don’t understand all the comments of disappointment about anyone in the top 3. I’m also amazed about how it was such a colorful top 15, 10, 5, & 3. I know “diverse” can be an annoying cliche word, but geez it was soooo truly beautiful this year. Lastly, I’m super proud of Miss OK, I felt like she was a dark horse the whole time, but I knew she’d do well.
I believe she had the best on-stage answers. If I were judging, even though I loved so many of the girls, I couldn't have honestly selected anyone but her because she earned it.
That was Lacie’s third pageant. But Miss Hawaii USA was her first one and competing in USA was her second. Hawaii hasn’t had anyone advance to the top since Chelsea Harding got 1st runner Up in Miss USA a couple years ago. Hawaii made all of us proud back home. I love North Carolina as our new USA.
New Mexico got this Miss Universe vibes, too bad she was not selected to represent the country. I hope she joins in another arena such as Miss World, Miss Earth, Miss International, Miss intercontinental or Miss Supranational...great recap😘🌹hugs from LA.
Braty Baby how long have you been watching Miss Universe pageants?! Sometimes giving a not so good of an answer can catapult you to that status of #MissUniverse, for example, did Olivia Culpo gave a very good response for her final question at Miss Universe yet she won? Hmmm some say it's because she's prettier than Janine Tugonon who gave and delivered the best response at that night. I'm just saying that New Mexico have a stronger chance of becoming the next Miss Universe. Go review and watch the pageants since 1952 & tell me if she doesn't give you this "miss universe vibes" that I was referring to. I respect your opinion, respect mine as well instead of riding on my own personal comments.
“I’m sick of the word diverse”. Honey, I couldn’t have said it better myself!!! This year’s pageant was a huge disappointment. Miss New Mexico was gorgeous, intelligent (a Master’s degree in accounting....not everyone can do that) and she presented herself beautifully on-stage. After watching the prelims, I didn’t even have NC in my 15. Thanks for your re-cap.....you two are a riot...but really gentle in your reviews.
Dani, On Cheslie. Cheslie is the oldest Miss USA ever at 28. But, I also saw something else that I never saw before. The winner is African-American, The 1st Runner Up was Hispanic (New Mexico), and the 2nd Runner Up (Oklahoma) was a native American. As I said in an earlier post on your predictions earlier in the week, this was the best Miss USA group ever. But I was shocked of some of the contestants that I thought who would be in the top 15 didn't make it. The ones I picked didn't make it: California Georgia (who reminded me of Olivia Culpo) Illnois (who was in Sarah Rose Summers' Miss Teen USA group) New Jersey and Texas, who I thought would win. I was wrong. Now for Cheslie, she reminds me of Kira McCullough, who you two saw last year at the 2018 Miss USA Pageant, I am just wondering , how would Cheslie do at Miss Universe later this year? Thank you.
Very disappointed with the results this year....USA can say goodbye to the Miss Universe crown , she will probably in the top 16 because she is from USA.
Seascorp Scorpio have to agree. Don’t get me wrong she’s beautiful but I don’t see miss universe vibes here. And USA has made finals every year since 2011
I agree to an extent. I think she's worthy of being a semifinalist, but that's it. The first runner-up, Alejandra, could have easily been top 5 at Miss Universe.
I do think Cheslie will never be a top 15/20 semifinalist in Miss Universe as pageant fans hate her. Definitely she is no Miss USA and Miss Universe material.
Dani, I can’t expressed how disappointed and upset I am at this year’s results. This year’s group is so facially stunning!! So many beauties from NM, FL, KS, Minnesota, GA, CA, NJ, etc.! And in the end.. a facially weak NC won!! The pageant community and viewers are disappointed and outraged at the results!!
I've seen the disappointment and it's hard for me to understand from my personal experience. When I got to Miss USA, I saw fellow contestants who were stunning in images. I thought, "That's probably editing." But after seeing them in person I realized that their images didn't do them justice. After that experience, I feel that all the women who compete at Miss USA are beautiful. I can still remember my cousin's comments, who came to see me at Miss USA. After the 2018 show we saw with Kara the next day and had lunch together at Margarittaville. My cousin remarked how under rated Kara was. She said, "I had no idea how beautiful Kara was without makeup on, until I just saw her up close." I don't think most people understand how stunning each of these women are, until they meet them in person.
I don't know how many of u noticed but miss Usa 2019 proved the pageant superstition wrong. Miss North Carolina had her hands in the bottom not on the top. Yet,she won!!
@@DaniWalker i think this yr miss usa 2019 is really an amazing contender. I think she can be an amazing competitor at miss universe. People have already started acting racist towards
@Dragoslav Vega, Brazilian-American Nationalists why is it pricking u ? I have not even mentioned ur name. But didn't u say that miss usa 2019 is worst!! On what parameter r u saying she's worst??? I have nothing to do with who u r or what part of the world u r from. Many r speaking rubbish abt her and so i have said in general. I didn't even say u t racist!!!!!!! Why r u taking the blame on u ??????? I think u urself infact know then that ur comments embody racism. Also in pageants there is no scope of being conservative. In pageantry ww encourage inclusivity and acceptance!!!
Great review Dani! Cheslie did a spectacular job throughout the competition and I'm really happy she won Miss USA! Congratulations to her! ❤ In addition, I was absolutely blown away that a majority of my front runners didn't make the cut. It really does go to show that interviews are the most important part of the competiton. Overall I'm happy for the girls who made the Top 15. One thing I found very unfair though was that they brought back the same judges from prelims/interviews to final night. I have nothing against a whole female panel but it's a little biased knowing that they're gonna put the girls with the highest interview score through to Top 5 regardless of her performance in swim/gown. I love your reviews as per usual and I can't wait to see Cheslie's reign and her journey to Miss Universe! ❤
I thought the same, I wish I could have fixed the sound but hotel rooms are so dark at night. Poor Liz was so tired. We had 4 hours of sleep before Miss USA, the queens dinner and after party. So exhausted but, she's such a trooper.
Dani I think you need to do another reaction video to the reaction the new Miss USA Cheslie Kyrst. And educate the people again why she won and how the Miss USA system works. I feel like optics and emotions from this pageant has gotten out of hand. We should be uplifting ALL of these women not tearing them down. Miss USA and Miss Universe is more of a job interview more than a pageant. The world is so divided and its just a pageant people. Miss New Mexico will be ok her future is bright.
So true. Allie is a sweet heart!! I know that great things will come her way even if Miss USA was not for her. I understand the disappointment. So many of us have felt that, but I believe she will be just fine
When the top 3 was announced. I'm thought ok New Mexico is going to win. But when they answered the final word Man North Carolina nailed that thing . It reminds me of Miss Universe 2007 Rito Mori came out of nowhere and won everything. I loved New Mexico I'm sad that she didn't win. But still congrats to Miss North Carolina and goodluck in Miss Universe
Riyo did Battle Ly Jonaitis of Venezuela, Honey Lee of Korea, Lourdes Avaralos of Paraguay, and Rachel Smith of USA in a tough comp though. She snuck in, Honey was the fav btwn the 2, Paraguay was the oh she made the 5, USA had the fall but kept it together, and Ly is my personal fav of The Venezuelan contingency so... great yr 2007!
@@lashayjohnson4403 Ly Jonaitis is one of my all-time favorite Miss Venezuela's, and Honey Lee could have been South Korea's first Miss Universe. Riyo Mori performed well, and won. Was she the most beautiful? No, but she did perform well. You just never know in pageantry. A different set of judges, a different result, most likely.
We were so tired lol. We slept 4 hours then we went to Miss USA, a queens dinner, then the after party. Probably should have recorded the next day but we had other travel plans.
Miss Usa was disappointing. There were a lot of intelligent women but me being a guy ( I can't help it Dani ) we often go by looks. I am sorry for my earlier comments, Dani , I totally agree with your assessment in this video.
Not true, there is a community of Pageant Boys who compete alongside these women against other men who do pageants like myself. I am judging these girls off of looks, poise, confidence, ease of speaking/articulation, fierceness, and who I believe can carry the crown for all 51.... I am blessed to have 13 yrs in pageantry and coach so I dont want you to assume that in present day mindet maybe in the past
I agree with you regarding the experience the contestants get from Miss America but Miss Connecticut didn’t make it to the finals! Robbed! And interestingly enough, she was the only one to make it to the finals in Miss America for her year out of all the girls that had prior experience in that pageant! Oh and yes you are right Triana was Miss Oklahoma 2017 and competed at Miss America that same year.
Hi Dani, can you also do Bb. Pilipinas prediction and recap when its finished? Im sure, that will get a lot of views and I want to see your opinion towards the pageant. Thank you! Love from The Philippines.
@@DaniWalker June 9th. I know right? I'm rooting for Patch Magtanong who just recently passed the boards for being a lawyer. It would be nice to see a Battle of Lawyers from USA, Colombia and The Philippines if that happens.
I think Cheslie will be a great Miss USA. I think her Miss Universe placement is up in the air. I think Cheslie would have been a better Miss USA, but I believe Alejandra would have done better at Miss Universe. I'm satisfied with my home state rep's placement. That's Nicolette Jennings. Her, Kansas, and Ohio could have made top 5, but they did well. Texas shouldn't have missed too 15.
It’s odd that when you talked about Arkansas answer you said she needs to give a specific solution for the question she was asked I disagree it’s not fair at all this is not the presidential debate they are discussing policy in the House of Representatives ... she is a young woman in college not even studying politics who is dressing up in an evening gown and swimsuit for a beauty contest .. if they want a queen who is outstanding in interview, a good speaker, and can answer the worlds problems swimsuit and evening gown competitions are pointless
I think that pageants ask girls these questions because people who aren't familiar with pageants ask us difficult questions. As the face of a profitable business and brand, MUO, you have to be able answer questions like the ones we see during the show. Have you seen the Olivia Culpo interview that was sooooo political? It was honestly the most intense pageant interview I've ever seen.
Thanks for your efforts in efficient updating. My final thoughts on this outcome & apparent direction the MUO is taking is: When will it carry over to the MUNI competition to ever give MUSA(NC) a chance to compete for the MUNI crown? Obviously, Philippines deserved the crown last year. But if the MUO , does not carry over the same criteria @MUNI as they do @ MUSA, then it’s very confusing to prepare for all GIRLS from around the world & TRUST me they will exit MUO & actually go to MISS WORLD. So, the MUO needs to express their criteria of what they are looking for to be consistent around the globe. •BE UNIQUE •HAVE EXPERIENCE IN YOUR PLATFORM •HAVE DOCTORATE LEVEL EDUCATION •SPEAK CONCISELY & DON’T go OVER LIMIT WHILE SPEAKING. • YOU CAN MESS UP IN SWIMSUIT WITH THE BODY WRAP & STILL advance. • BUT DON’T go OVER speaking limit during final Q/A by ONE WORD! Yes, I’m a little perturbed!
I have thought the same thing. Prep for state is very different from what they value at nationals, or what they seek at an international level. That's what makes it so difficult.
I’m so late but I think New Mexico would have been a better miss universe candidate, such a strong performer when it comes to the stage in term of her walk and knowing how to catch camera at the right time along with her fresh personality. Her interview skills are good and can be improved for the pageant. I think North Carolina would be a killer candidate for Miss World actually. I think she’s fits the concept of beauty with a purpose more than Miss Universe and And would do an amazing the interviews and challenges for miss World.
Personally, MOU should abandon the selection committee full of women. This is not supporting women or equality or feminism. This is dividing men and women, this is too much. There should be at least one men in the selection committee
My random thoughts no one asked for, but I must share with like-minded people 😝 Minnesota had all the FACE! Where did she come from?!!! And Kansas!!! On NC- I adore her, she’s obviously very educated, well-spoken and successful. I love that she wore her natural curls. I think she’s beautiful, but I do get a more America vibe from her. While I think she did great on stage and she looked amazing, I don’t think she had the best stage presence. Was this the first time a contestant with a visible tattoo made top 3? Noticed it in prelims and wondered if she was going to cover it. For the record, it doesn’t bother me at all but I know visible ink can be a bit taboo on stage. I thought it was odd that they kept all the contestants lined up on stage during EG. It distracted me from the walking contestant. Bummed that they didn’t get to change gowns- although it did seem like all the girls with the ‘better’ gowns from prelims advanced. Also found it odd they had them dancing in swimsuits? Do they always do this and I just overlooked it?
Miss Spain in 2014 at Miss Universe had a visible tattoo on her thigh. I thought the same thing during gown. I didn't think they'd show that line up on tv. I thought maybe that they wouldn't show the other girls in the camera shot, but I guess they did. I haven't seen the filmed show. Last year we danced in swim too.
@@DaniWalker i am going to go back and watch that.... believe it or not dani, i judge gown harder than swim so thats why i may not have noticed. Us men in pageantry tattoos give bonus points for some.... I am not bothered by it, depending on tat size
Funny thing about this video You both seemed and sounded so tired .....why were you whispering....lmao I actually preferred that we got to see the girls durning final 3 and no one performed around them. Production was good....still needed a longer runway Overall happy with the show, the semi finalist and overall winner
We were soooo tired lol We slept 4 hours before the show. We went to a queen's dinner then the after party but we wanted to get the recap filmed asap because we left to Tahoe the next morning. I'd love a longer runway too.
New Mexico and Maryland were my picks...N.C. intelligent, articulate and cute but more Miss America than Miss USA/Miss Universe but wish her all the best...
Quite honestly, she stands NO chance at Miss Universe. Let’s face it, if she does make it, she did because of sash factor!! Does she have the accomplishments? Yes. Does she have the interview skills? Yes. But, this is a beauty pageant!! Why is Miss USA/ Miss Universe so popular? Because it’s a beauty pageant! I know I sound superficial but at the end of the day, will the average viewer/Pageant fan care about her achievements? Will they care if she aced her final word? NO! Hell no!! She’s not running for political office!! What if she is an attorney? Good for her! But, this is Miss USA. She will compete in Miss Universe!! Facial beauty is the most important! She can be the best talker in the world but if she can’t walk in heels or loses facially in contrast to other states/countries, then she is not deserving of the title!! She should go to Miss America then!! That’s the pageant she should go to!! This is Miss USA! This is not Miss Interview Queen!
B Davis lmao obviously I know, I’ve watched this pageant for so many years! My disappointment about this pageant is WHY? Why choose the best answer? We are not selecting Miss Interview Queen. Who cares if she aces her question? 10/20 years down the line, most people will not remember. They will only remember her facial beauty, her placement at Miss Universe! Another wasted quota at Miss Universe!! USA just lost a Miss Universe! Robbery!
Very true. I'll say that I've competed against women who are stunning facially but I went home with the crown because of my interview and stage performance.
I've judged pageants and the reason for that, when you're a judge, is because they understand that Miss USA's job mostly requires inspiring others, building the self-esteem of young women and interacting with people. You look for the girl who can sit down with children and interact with them, as well as the woman who can meet with politicians. It's hard to do both.
Correct! She does so many things aside from talking. Fixing her dress so boobs wont pop, fixing hair constantly then she noticed her lips then suddenly her back itches 😂😂😂
We were both so tired. We only slept 4 hours before Miss USA, she's such a trooper for powering through. We both wanted to get this out for everyone. Our vlog is coming soon and we'll be awake lol
I loved FL MN, Kansas, Ohio and of course NM was my top favorite👑 She looked like a Miss Universe Liz, I agree about ur statement about diversity and I dislike female empowerment Why don’t we empowered everyone Why isolation men Would we want our dads/brothers/boyfriends to be discriminated No Let’s empower everyone We are all here together and we need each other👑💕👑 And yes Last years runway was the best This year it was like landing a jumbo jet at a municipal airport😂😂😂 Just not enough room Every pageant needs a long runway so we can execute our turns well and show off personalities
Well...I have watched Miss USA for close to 40 years and was very disappointed.I think I am also not happy with IMG running the pageant.No male judges?! Not impressed with how they all look a like since IMG took over. Way too politically correct. And in no means am I racist!!! Miss USA enough is enough get with the program or else you won't have any more viewers. Nice job Dani as always.
Not a big fan of the winner this year. Yes she answered well and seems intelligent, but this is a beauty contest after all and they should be looking for a combination of many things, including beauty. Her looks are average at best and she looks way too much like Miss USA 2017!
@@DaniWalker In my opinion they could be twins and I think they should have chosen a different kind of girl this year. What happened to diversity? But good luck to her at MU!
Yes, lol. In order to get all the recaps out I have to film them in the hotel. Hotel lighting isn't great and if I filmed in the room it would be grainy :(
I WAS WAITING FOR YOUR RECAP!!!! YAY!! AGREE ON A LOT OF THE THINGS YOU MENTIONED!!

That makes me smile. So glad you came to watch.
So, I am competing in National American Miss for my state, and I was wondering if we have to wear a different outfit for personal introduction and interview or can it be the same exact outfit?
Everyone (or almost everyone) wears the same outfit for both. There's no reason to wear different outfits and the judges don't care.

Dani, On Cheslie. Cheslie is the oldest Miss USA ever at 28. But, I also saw something else that I never saw before. The winner is African-American, The 1st Runner Up was Hispanic (New Mexico), and the 2nd Runner Up (Oklahoma) was a native American. As I said in an earlier post on your predictions earlier in the week, this was the best Miss USA group ever. But I was shocked of some of the contestants that I thought who would be in the top 15 didn't make it.
The ones I picked didn't make it:
California
Georgia (who reminded me of Olivia Culpo)
Illnois (who was in Sarah Rose Summers' Miss Teen USA group)
New Jersey and Texas, who I thought would win. I was wrong. Now for Cheslie, she reminds me of Kira McCullough, who you two saw last year at the 2018 Miss USA Pageant, I am just wondering , how would Cheslie do at Miss Universe later this year? Thank you.
William Dunphy to me NC would have been a great Miss America, but I don’t see her winning Miss Universe.
@@MrModel--CAPTURED-ON-FILM The USA hasn't won since 2012. But who knows.
I didn't know IL and Sarah competed together. That's a fun fact. I guess we'll have to wait and see the results.
@@DaniWalker Alexandra Plotz competed as Miss Illinois Teen USA 2012. Thank you.
Very disappointed with the results this year....USA can say goodbye to the Miss Universe crown , she will probably in the top 16 because she is from USA.
Seascorp Scorpio have to agree. Don’t get me wrong she’s beautiful but I don’t see miss universe vibes here. And USA has made finals every year since 2011
I agree! Thank you for telling the truth
I agree to an extent. I think she's worthy of being a semifinalist, but that's it. The first runner-up, Alejandra, could have easily been top 5 at Miss Universe.
I do think Cheslie will never be a top 15/20 semifinalist in Miss Universe as pageant fans hate her. Definitely she is no Miss USA and Miss Universe material.
Dani, I can’t expressed how disappointed and upset I am at this year’s results. This year’s group is so facially stunning!! So many beauties from NM, FL, KS, Minnesota, GA, CA, NJ, etc.! And in the end.. a facially weak NC won!! The pageant community and viewers are disappointed and outraged at the results!!
I've seen the disappointment and it's hard for me to understand from my personal experience. When I got to Miss USA, I saw fellow contestants who were stunning in images. I thought, "That's probably editing." But after seeing them in person I realized that their images didn't do them justice. After that experience, I feel that all the women who compete at Miss USA are beautiful. I can still remember my cousin's comments, who came to see me at Miss USA. After the 2018 show we saw with Kara the next day and had lunch together at Margarittaville. My cousin remarked how under rated Kara was. She said, "I had no idea how beautiful Kara was without makeup on, until I just saw her up close." I don't think most people understand how stunning each of these women are, until they meet them in person.
You are all over the internet insulting this girl... Go get a life!!!
I don't know how many of u noticed but miss Usa 2019 proved the pageant superstition wrong. Miss North Carolina had her hands in the bottom not on the top. Yet,she won!!
Shinjan Bhatta ohhh didn’t notice that!!!
@@DaniWalker i think this yr miss usa 2019 is really an amazing contender. I think she can be an amazing competitor at miss universe. People have already started acting racist towards
@Dragoslav Vega, Brazilian-American Nationalists why is it pricking u ? I have not even mentioned ur name. But didn't u say that miss usa 2019 is worst!! On what parameter r u saying she's worst??? I have nothing to do with who u r or what part of the world u r from. Many r speaking rubbish abt her and so i have said in general. I didn't even say u t racist!!!!!!! Why r u taking the blame on u ??????? I think u urself infact know then that ur comments embody racism. Also in pageants there is no scope of being conservative. In pageantry ww encourage inclusivity and acceptance!!!
I think she can too. I can't wait to meet her :)
Great review Dani! Cheslie did a spectacular job throughout the competition and I'm really happy she won Miss USA! Congratulations to her! ❤
In addition, I was absolutely blown away that a majority of my front runners didn't make the cut. It really does go to show that interviews are the most important part of the competiton. Overall I'm happy for the girls who made the Top 15.
One thing I found very unfair though was that they brought back the same judges from prelims/interviews to final night. I have nothing against a whole female panel but it's a little biased knowing that they're gonna put the girls with the highest interview score through to Top 5 regardless of her performance in swim/gown.
I love your reviews as per usual and I can't wait to see Cheslie's reign and her journey to Miss Universe! ❤
They were fab!! I can't wait either. A lot of pageant weight interview as the largest percentage of the score.
Will we EVER break free of those boring/tired Sherri Hill gowns?
Yes she competed in Miss America having the Oklahoma title as well
Nevada teen was also asked about immigration during her interview by Paula (muo president) is it because they were latinas?
Sound echo was really bad, but I enjoy your enthusiasm and passion Your partner though seems so bored and like she didnt want to be in the video.
I thought the same, I wish I could have fixed the sound but hotel rooms are so dark at night. Poor Liz was so tired. We had 4 hours of sleep before Miss USA, the queens dinner and after party. So exhausted but, she's such a trooper.
OKLAHOMA AND OHIO DID GO TO MISS AMERICA 2018
CONNECTICUT DID AMERICA ALSO
Actually Oklahoma competed in Miss America 2018 and Connecticut competed in Miss America 2016.
@@itsjustjae85 Connecticut competed in Miss America 2015, not 2016.
Dani I think you need to do another reaction video to the reaction the new Miss USA Cheslie Kyrst. And educate the people again why she won and how the Miss USA system works. I feel like optics and emotions from this pageant has gotten out of hand. We should be uplifting ALL of these women not tearing them down. Miss USA and Miss Universe is more of a job interview more than a pageant. The world is so divided and its just a pageant people. Miss New Mexico will be ok her future is bright.
So true. Allie is a sweet heart!! I know that great things will come her way even if Miss USA was not for her. I understand the disappointment. So many of us have felt that, but I believe she will be just fine
You’re right about Oklahoma being at Miss. America. It was either the year Savvy won or Cara won
It was Cara year
When the top 3 was announced.
I'm thought ok New Mexico is going to win.
But when they answered the final word
Man North Carolina nailed that thing .
It reminds me of Miss Universe 2007
Rito Mori came out of nowhere and won everything.
I loved New Mexico I'm sad that she didn't win.
But still congrats to Miss North Carolina and goodluck in Miss Universe
Exactly. I need to watch that show though!!!
Riyo did Battle Ly Jonaitis of Venezuela, Honey Lee of Korea, Lourdes Avaralos of Paraguay, and Rachel Smith of USA in a tough comp though. She snuck in, Honey was the fav btwn the 2, Paraguay was the oh she made the 5, USA had the fall but kept it together, and Ly is my personal fav of The Venezuelan contingency so... great yr 2007!
@@lashayjohnson4403 Ly Jonaitis is one of my all-time favorite Miss Venezuela's, and Honey Lee could have been South Korea's first Miss Universe. Riyo Mori performed well, and won. Was she the most beautiful? No, but she did perform well. You just never know in pageantry. A different set of judges, a different result, most likely.
Liz looks different here tho compared from during she competed in Miss USA 2018.... and she seems quiet tho
We were so tired lol. We slept 4 hours then we went to Miss USA, a queens dinner, then the after party. Probably should have recorded the next day but we had other travel plans.
Dani Walker ooh hahha no wonder....
Miss Usa was disappointing. There were a lot of intelligent women but me being a guy ( I can't help it Dani ) we often go by looks. I am sorry for my earlier comments, Dani , I totally agree with your assessment in this video.
Not true, there is a community of Pageant Boys who compete alongside these women against other men who do pageants like myself. I am judging these girls off of looks, poise, confidence, ease of speaking/articulation, fierceness, and who I believe can carry the crown for all 51.... I am blessed to have 13 yrs in pageantry and coach so I dont want you to assume that in present day mindet maybe in the past
I agree with you regarding the experience the contestants get from Miss America but Miss Connecticut didn’t make it to the finals! Robbed! And interestingly enough, she was the only one to make it to the finals in Miss America for her year out of all the girls that had prior experience in that pageant! Oh and yes you are right Triana was Miss Oklahoma 2017 and competed at Miss America that same year.
Thanks for confirming!! I didn't know that about CT
New Mexico 💓💓💓
Fabulous queen
Hi Dani!
Hi!!!
Hi Dani, can you also do Bb. Pilipinas prediction and recap when its finished? Im sure, that will get a lot of views and I want to see your opinion towards the pageant. Thank you! Love from The Philippines.
I need to go to the Philippines!!! When is the show. I've seen the girls. I don't know if I've ever seen a stronger year.
@@DaniWalker June 9th. I know right? I'm rooting for Patch Magtanong who just recently passed the boards for being a lawyer. It would be nice to see a Battle of Lawyers from USA, Colombia and The Philippines if that happens.
Dani Walker, literally in the bathroom 😂
Gotta do what you gotta do to make the recap happen hahaha. The best lighting is in the bathroom.
I think Cheslie will be a great Miss USA. I think her Miss Universe placement is up in the air. I think Cheslie would have been a better Miss USA, but I believe Alejandra would have done better at Miss Universe. I'm satisfied with my home state rep's placement. That's Nicolette Jennings. Her, Kansas, and Ohio could have made top 5, but they did well. Texas shouldn't have missed too 15.
Yes to all of this. I completely feel where you're coming from. You're spot on in my opinion.
@@DaniWalker Thanks. I've watched a lot of pageants. I definitely have an opinion. Continue to shine bright, Dani.
Thank you!
Lip fillers : Idaho. What happened? And there were several who had fake teeth that needed to be shaved down
So sad,my miss u.s.a.is New Mexico,I like her very much
Such a sweetheart. Love her too
It’s odd that when you talked about Arkansas answer you said she needs to give a specific solution for the question she was asked I disagree it’s not fair at all this is not the presidential debate they are discussing policy in the House of Representatives ... she is a young woman in college not even studying politics who is dressing up in an evening gown and swimsuit for a beauty contest .. if they want a queen who is outstanding in interview, a good speaker, and can answer the worlds problems swimsuit and evening gown competitions are pointless
I think that pageants ask girls these questions because people who aren't familiar with pageants ask us difficult questions. As the face of a profitable business and brand, MUO, you have to be able answer questions like the ones we see during the show. Have you seen the Olivia Culpo interview that was sooooo political? It was honestly the most intense pageant interview I've ever seen.
But that didn’t work for CT who was top 15 in Miss America.
Wait this would be fun if somebody make this one as a parody video. I mean I just laughed watch how liz react.
Thanks for your efforts in efficient updating. My final thoughts on this outcome & apparent direction the MUO is taking is:
When will it carry over to the MUNI competition to ever give MUSA(NC) a chance to compete for the MUNI crown?
Obviously, Philippines deserved the crown last year.
But if the MUO , does not carry over the same criteria @MUNI as they do @ MUSA, then it’s very confusing to prepare for all GIRLS from around the world & TRUST me they will exit MUO & actually go to MISS WORLD.
So, the MUO needs to express their criteria of what they are looking for to be consistent around the globe.
•BE UNIQUE
•HAVE EXPERIENCE IN YOUR PLATFORM
•HAVE DOCTORATE LEVEL EDUCATION
•SPEAK CONCISELY & DON’T go OVER LIMIT
WHILE SPEAKING.
• YOU CAN MESS UP IN SWIMSUIT WITH THE BODY WRAP & STILL advance.
• BUT DON’T go OVER speaking limit during final Q/A by ONE WORD!
Yes, I’m a little perturbed!
I have thought the same thing. Prep for state is very different from what they value at nationals, or what they seek at an international level. That's what makes it so difficult.
I’m so late but I think New Mexico would have been a better miss universe candidate, such a strong performer when it comes to the stage in term of her walk and knowing how to catch camera at the right time along with her fresh personality. Her interview skills are good and can be improved for the pageant. I think North Carolina would be a killer candidate for Miss World actually. I think she’s fits the concept of beauty with a purpose more than Miss Universe and And would do an amazing the interviews and challenges for miss World.
I with the USA org owned more franchises so the contestants at USA had other chances to compete internationally
Get rid of the sidekick. You don’t need her
Yes please kick her aside! 😀
Personally, MOU should abandon the selection committee full of women. This is not supporting women or equality or feminism. This is dividing men and women, this is too much. There should be at least one men in the selection committee
I don't mind the committee. When I was at USA, I was actually just excited to meet them lol. I had a great time in interview.
My random thoughts no one asked for, but I must share with like-minded people 😝
Minnesota had all the FACE! Where did she come from?!!! And Kansas!!! On NC- I adore her, she’s obviously very educated, well-spoken and successful. I love that she wore her natural curls. I think she’s beautiful, but I do get a more America vibe from her. While I think she did great on stage and she looked amazing, I don’t think she had the best stage presence.
Was this the first time a contestant with a visible tattoo made top 3? Noticed it in prelims and wondered if she was going to cover it. For the record, it doesn’t bother me at all but I know visible ink can be a bit taboo on stage.
I thought it was odd that they kept all the contestants lined up on stage during EG. It distracted me from the walking contestant.
Bummed that they didn’t get to change gowns- although it did seem like all the girls with the ‘better’ gowns from prelims advanced.
Also found it odd they had them dancing in swimsuits? Do they always do this and I just overlooked it?
Miss Spain in 2014 at Miss Universe had a visible tattoo on her thigh. I thought the same thing during gown. I didn't think they'd show that line up on tv. I thought maybe that they wouldn't show the other girls in the camera shot, but I guess they did. I haven't seen the filmed show.
Last year we danced in swim too.
Who had a tattoo i know at Miss America Teresa Vail Miss Kansas openly had hers showing so I dont mind it
Miss Spain 2014 had one on her thigh
@@DaniWalker i am going to go back and watch that.... believe it or not dani, i judge gown harder than swim so thats why i may not have noticed. Us men in pageantry tattoos give bonus points for some.... I am not bothered by it, depending on tat size
You are so cute, Dani Walker
Thank you!!!
Funny thing about this video
You both seemed and sounded so tired .....why were you whispering....lmao
I actually preferred that we got to see the girls durning final 3 and no one performed around them.
Production was good....still needed a longer runway
Overall happy with the show, the semi finalist and overall winner
We were soooo tired lol We slept 4 hours before the show. We went to a queen's dinner then the after party but we wanted to get the recap filmed asap because we left to Tahoe the next morning.
I'd love a longer runway too.
@@DaniWalker But you got the video out and we appreciate it 👍🏽
New Mexico and Maryland were my picks...N.C. intelligent, articulate and cute but more Miss America than Miss USA/Miss Universe but wish her all the best...
You should've done this alone. Your friend did not add anything of value and she looked so bored and irritated.
I called it for NC.....Remember?.....😀
You did, we need to do episodes together!
@@DaniWalker that would be devine😀
Quite honestly, she stands NO chance at Miss Universe. Let’s face it, if she does make it, she did because of sash factor!! Does she have the accomplishments? Yes. Does she have the interview skills? Yes. But, this is a beauty pageant!! Why is Miss USA/ Miss Universe so popular? Because it’s a beauty pageant! I know I sound superficial but at the end of the day, will the average viewer/Pageant fan care about her achievements? Will they care if she aced her final word? NO! Hell no!! She’s not running for political office!! What if she is an attorney? Good for her! But, this is Miss USA. She will compete in Miss Universe!! Facial beauty is the most important! She can be the best talker in the world but if she can’t walk in heels or loses facially in contrast to other states/countries, then she is not deserving of the title!! She should go to Miss America then!! That’s the pageant she should go to!! This is Miss USA! This is not Miss Interview Queen!
The most beautiful does not always win. It usually comes down to how they answer the questions.
B Davis lmao obviously I know, I’ve watched this pageant for so many years! My disappointment about this pageant is WHY? Why choose the best answer? We are not selecting Miss Interview Queen. Who cares if she aces her question? 10/20 years down the line, most people will not remember. They will only remember her facial beauty, her placement at Miss Universe! Another wasted quota at Miss Universe!! USA just lost a Miss Universe! Robbery!
Very true. I'll say that I've competed against women who are stunning facially but I went home with the crown because of my interview and stage performance.
I've judged pageants and the reason for that, when you're a judge, is because they understand that Miss USA's job mostly requires inspiring others, building the self-esteem of young women and interacting with people. You look for the girl who can sit down with children and interact with them, as well as the woman who can meet with politicians. It's hard to do both.
Instead of DIVERSITY, MUO should ask what consistency means to the contestant!!
New Mexico is way much better and resonate the brand of Miss Universe. Too bad she didn't win. But North Carolina was great too.
Both incredible women.
In the shower? Alrighty
Best lighting available in the middle of the night lol.
OMG!! Your guest looks like she'd rather be anywhere but there. It's so distracting.
Correct! She does so many things aside from talking. Fixing her dress so boobs wont pop, fixing hair constantly then she noticed her lips then suddenly her back itches 😂😂😂
We were both so tired. We only slept 4 hours before Miss USA, she's such a trooper for powering through. We both wanted to get this out for everyone. Our vlog is coming soon and we'll be awake lol
You are such a cutie. I love how you do some of these in the SHOWER :-)
hahah thanks! They have the best lighting in dark hotel rooms at night.
I loved FL
MN, Kansas, Ohio and of course NM was my top favorite👑
She looked like a Miss Universe
Liz, I agree about ur statement about diversity and I dislike female empowerment
Why don’t we empowered everyone
Why isolation men
Would we want our dads/brothers/boyfriends to be discriminated
No
Let’s empower everyone
We are all here together and we need each other👑💕👑
And yes
Last years runway was the best
This year it was like landing a jumbo jet at a municipal airport😂😂😂
Just not enough room
Every pageant needs a long runway so we can execute our turns well and show off personalities
Loved all those ladies too!
Well...I have watched Miss USA for close to 40 years and was very disappointed.I think I am also not happy with IMG running the pageant.No male judges?! Not impressed with how they all look a like since IMG took over. Way too politically correct. And in no means am I racist!!! Miss USA enough is enough get with the program or else you won't have any more viewers. Nice job Dani as always.
Thank so much for watching and sharing your thoughts :D
@@DaniWalker enjoy watching your shows...TY
Lip filler they talking to you Georgia
Thank god I'm not the only one who thought that!! Ahh!
Are you in a bathroom?!?
Yes lol. It has the best lighting. Much better than a dark hotel room.
Miss kasan gown resemble with brook lee miss usa 1997 final gown
Miss USA 2019 needs a haircut ASAP.
I feel like her hair made her stand out on stage. During top 15, your eye was drawn to her.
Not a big fan of the winner this year. Yes she answered well and seems intelligent, but this is a beauty contest after all and they should be looking for a combination of many things, including beauty. Her looks are average at best and she looks way too much like Miss USA 2017!
I don't think they USA 2019 and 2018 look facially similar. I know Kara and her features are very different from Cheslie's
@@DaniWalker In my opinion they could be twins and I think they should have chosen a different kind of girl this year. What happened to diversity? But good luck to her at MU!
North Carolina,is like a wrestler
I prefer trump era
In a shower?
Yes, lol. In order to get all the recaps out I have to film them in the hotel. Hotel lighting isn't great and if I filmed in the room it would be grainy :(
Get rid of Liz!!!!
Is it just me or did some look like men?
