Imagine one of the biggest moments of your life, something you worked so hard for, except the people announcing it seem to have forgotten your name.
The 2023 Miss USA pageant was held Friday night and this year’s winner is Miss Utah, Noelia Voight.
However, as she was being crowned, hosts Adrienne Bailon-Houghton and Keltie Knight had several opportunities to announce her name but continuously shouted out “Utah” or “Miss Utah!”
Throughout the pageant, we learned Voight spoke about being a “bilingual Venezuelan-American,” and promised she would connect with diverse communities across the United States. She will go on to compete for the Miss Universe title on November 18th.
