The Miss USA 2015 pageant was a very special evening for 26-year-old Olivia Jordan of Oklahoma, crowned the belle of the ball ahead of 50 other women in a glittering event in Louisiana.
Despite the fact that Donald Trump had almost single-handedly sunk the pageant with a succession of racist tirades against Mexico the event went ahead, Jordan walking away with the coveted title. Earlier pageant officials were forced to chase last-minute replacements as broadcasters, sponsors and judges pulled out in protest against Trump.
The pageant was a close run affair with the following from the New York Post:
Twenty-two-year-old Ylianna Guerra of Texas was named first runner-up.
The competition had been narrowed down to five finalists also representing Rhode Island, Maryland, and Nevada before the winner was crowned Sunday night.
Let’s enjoy a few snaps of Olivia then…
Well she is certainly very easy on the eye, you won’t hear any complaints from this corner.
