2007年“美國小姐”新鮮出爐
[ 2007-03-26 09:28 ]

來自田納西州的21歲女孩蕾切爾·史密斯在2007年美國小姐選拔賽中封后。史密斯畢業于貝爾蒙大學新聞系,參選“美國小姐”以前,她曾在美國著名的“奧普拉·溫弗里秀”電視節目組實習,是一名“新聞小姐”。圖為去年“美國小姐”得主塔拉·康納輕輕把王冠戴在了史密斯的棕色長發上。

Rachel Smith, a journalism graduate from Tennessee, was crowned Miss USA on Friday, edging out 50 other aspiring beauty queens in a contest to replace a titleholder whose reign was nearly marred by a scandal.

Smith, 21, of Clarksville, Tenn., graduated from Belmont University and interned last year for the production company behind "The Oprah Winfrey Show."

Contestants from all 50 states and the District of Columbia were vying to succeed Miss USA Tara Conner, who entered rehab after accounts surfaced suggesting she was boozing at New York clubs. The episode might have cost the Kentucky native her crown, but Donald Trump, who co-owns the pageant with NBC, gave her a second chance.

The telecast didn't shy away from the controversy, opening with a string of news and interview clips about Conner's woes. Then, the 21-year-old blonde emerged wearing a strapless, ruffled gown, and appeared on stage.

"It has been the most unforgettable year of my life and I'm back, and better than ever," Conner said to wild applause from the audience at the Kodak Theater.

Smith edged out top finalists Meagan Yvonne Tandy of California; Cara Renee Gorges of Kansas; Helen Salas of Nevada; and Danielle Lacourse of Rhode Island.
