The first ever openly lesbian Miss America contestant took the stage for the first time during the second night of the preliminary competition on Wednesday. Miss Missouri Erin O'Flaherty, 23, strutted her stuff during the swimsuit competition and spoke about National Suicide Prevention Week during her on stage question. Miss Maryland Hannah Brewer and Miss Arkansas Savvy Shields won the night's preliminary contests in the swimsuit and talent portion.
Brewer won the swimsuit competition, while Shields nabbed the talent portion after jazz dancing to They Just Keep Moving The Line, a song from former NBC show Smash. 'We were just whispering to each other that it's so unreal,' Shields told reporters afterward. 'Every girl here is so talented.' 'And fit and beautiful,' added Brewer. Shields said she thinks she made a connection with the judges during her dance performance to the 'Smash' song - a television show about a Broadway production that was canceled after two seasons, leaving many fans, including her, in mourning. 'One of my favorite things about dance is connecting with the audience,' she said. 'Hopefully we got to tell our story a bit.' It was the second of three nights of preliminary competition at Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall. The new Miss America will be crowned during Sunday night's nationally televised finale.

Others won talent and swimsuit but she, who has done nothing but diddle females, got the headlines.
Did the Miss Missouri contest have any women judges?
The girl was born to be a lifetime spokes person for D I N O V I T E
She’s a Monet.
Best seen from a distance. At least that’s my impression.
Kinda, her teeth were straight. ahahahaha
She is ugly. Why is she even in a Miss America contest? America has gone insane!
Exactly. Just like Anne Heche ~20 years ago. It’s a “career” move, period.
WNBBISITS (Would Not Bang But I’d Send It To Seamus).
“...trying to force herself on the judges by readying herself to claim discrimination...”
Bingo.
Nail meet hammer.
