Susan O'Connor, what made it special was that she used her talent to share the Gospel. He chose to walk that road out of His love for you and me! Edit: anyone know if Heather ever danced with a professional ballet company?
I met Heather around Christmas time of ‘95. I was 11 years old. Being born with hearing loss, I really looked up to Heather. My mom was able to arrange a meeting with her when she was a guest speaker at a local mega church in California. What a blessing it was to meet her. She was so sweet and very cool.
Well exactly, but in a year that the pageant decided to make a political statement, Cullen never stood a chance. Very disappointing, and even unfair to a certain degree.
Can you please load up Miss America 1996 when Heather Whitestone crowns Miss America 1996. I missed that on television. I'd love to see the talent and who won. Who Heather Whitestone crowns.
A very nice gentleman named Carlos posted the crowning of Miss America 1996 a few days ago! SPOILER ALERT! Johnny Mathis sings the famous song! No sign of Shawntel’s talent performance, though (she sang “The Woman in the Moon”, if I recall correctly).
@@mysticgirl916 I know that now, (remember this comment was posted 8 years ago.) (I only asked because i didn't think his name was included as part of the credits.)
I guess the Miss America pageant chose 1995 as the year they wished to make a statement. Was it necessarily wrong? No, but if you were Miss Virginia or Miss New Jersey (both of whom in my opinion who were infinitely more deserving of the win), it's somewhat disconcerting to know that you never stood a chance despite your superior qualities and beauty. Very disappointing and actually quite unfair.
I agree with you about Cullen, she was everything! Interesting fact, Georgia wasn't the original winner of Miss Georgia. The winner resigned the next day.
Heather Whitestone won preliminary awards in both talent and swimsuit, and radiated both inward and outward beauty. She was extremely deserving of the crown.
Heather will always be beautiful.
I will never forget her special ballet dance.

Heather's dress was timeless and beautiful
K Bs, just like its wearer.
“I always talk to the ocean.”

Heather was beautiful and never let her disability stop her from her goals,! Very lovely Miss America❤
Well--deserved winner!
Any other year, Miss Virginia, Cullen Johnson would have run away with the crown....stunningly gorgeous!!

Galileocan g, POLITICAL STATEMENT? Really? 🙄
Cullen was the best Miss Virginia

She ended up on drugs and has had a rough life. She's on tik tok now
Miss Alabama was Amazing

I wonder if Heather watched Bert’s Miss America pageants as a kid.
Can you please load up Miss America 1996 when Heather Whitestone crowns Miss America 1996. I missed that on television. I'd love to see the talent and who won. Who Heather Whitestone crowns.
Shawntel Smith of Oklahoma won the crown after Heather Whitestone.

Miss Georgia (Andrea Krahn) had MY vote. She was the most beautiful & talented.
Miss Ohio and NJ were also beautiful
I wish Cullen had won.
Cullen would have been a great Miss America too. I love how she had multicultural awareness as her platform.
But my heart lies with Heather. :)
Please upload Miss America 1985 swimsuit.
Miss Texas's gown was too short!! It should have at least kissed the floor!! Very high water!!! LOL !!!
Where is the swimsuit contest.
Yeah, do you have it?
Sorry,
Can You PLEASE Forgive Me?
Sorry, I Didn't Know
who was the announcer?
His name is John Harlan, he was well known for announcing various game shows
@@mysticgirl916 I know that now, (remember this comment was posted 8 years ago.) (I only asked because i didn't think his name was included as part of the credits.)
