Miss USA Pageant Looking for Wild-Card Contestant…

I’m not sure that Canadians are eligible but I thought you might be interested… The Miss USA pageant is trying something new this year, looking for a wild-card contestant from the public to compete against the women representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia in the show that will air on June 5th on Fox. The Miss Universe Organization said yesterday (April 20th) that it will conduct an online search, asking hopefuls to post three photos or videos on Instagram or Twitter using the hashtag #FindingMiss52, and explain why they would be a good candidate. A panel will choose 10 finalists based on creativity, personality and an online interview, and fans can then vote starting on May 10th on Twitter or at the Miss USA site.
