Miss USA & Miss Teen USA Celebrate ‘Power, Beauty & Ambition’
The Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants have been going strong for decades, however, aim to be relevant to modern women.
“MISS USA® and MISS TEEN USA® celebrate the power, beauty and ambition of today’s women,” according to the organization’s wedbsite. “More than a competition, these iconic brands provide a national stage for leadership, style and purpose — where confidence meets opportunity. Each year, state titleholders from across the country unite to showcase their talents, share their voices and inspire a new generation to dream boldly and achieve fearlessly.”
“Since 1952, MISS USA® has been recognized as the country’s most iconic pageant organization,” the organization continued. “The winner of Miss USA represents the United States of America each year at the MISS UNIVERSE® pageant. The organization will celebrate its 75th Anniversary in 2026.”
Beyond that, there’s the younger version. The organization explains, “Established in 1983, MISS TEEN USA® awards the national winner an academic scholarship, a prestigious modeling contract, brand ambassadorships, magazine appearances, leadership appearances and more.”
