What sucks is that Jackie Loughery, the very first Miss USA in 1952 passed away this year last February and we didn't even have an in memoriam for her. Instead we had to listen to Lackluster Rose's ChatGPT speech for the fourth time.

I couldn’t believe I was watching a miss USA pageant! I truly felt bad for the contestants!!!

[shawndeeshchiinii-tsinniji]

Dani! You almost made me spit out my food when you said “during my time at Miss USA, we ate fancy dinners and all these girls got was a box of Chick Fil A!” 🤣🤣🤣
I notice this! Miss USA needs a major change

[mixplatechannel]

Dani Walker should be the national director of Miss USA....Fire Laylah Rose aunty!

[christinegracetan]

There is obviously a decline in the popularity and relevance of pageants in the US, and this organization is too lazy and not helping at all.

It felt like I was just watching a state pageant. I competed in Iowa this year and they basically did the same thing 😭 I was expecting more at the national level.

I have never clicked on a video so fast 🤣🤣🤣. Dani you are hilarious🤣

My sister is Miss Florida USA and she only had 3 weeks to prepare herself for the Miss USA pageant. She did amazing and she’s absolutely beautiful and for her to not have enough time, but do amazing and also dress amazing and to not get top 20-10 is crazy. Half those girls were robbed 100%

Pop the corn and feed the children! Miss Walker is giving us what we need. Lol

I agree with Dani's thoughts and commentary.

Some thoughts I had:
*Laylah's speech 🙄... giving women voices when she silenced the voices of the 2023 winners while she keeps yapping hers.
*I think it was the mid 90s when they started doing the parade of gowns prior to the evening gown competition.
*I think a top 20 is too much for USA with 51 contestants. A top 15 that competes in both swimsuits and gowns resulting in a top five would be better. At Universe where there are 80+ contestants needs the top 20. Lesser semifinal spots makes it even more competitive from the prelims.
*I didn't like that some girls had capes and some didn't for swimsuit. I actually prefer that they all wear the same swimsuit and maybe just stick with a one piece or two piece option.
*That scepter looks like something I can get at Party City. If they want to go with a scepter, make it match the crown and make it bigger.
*This is something that's bugged me since 2011 when they made this switch but I hate that the runner up doesn't get her moment as she doesn't get announced. I preferred the announcement of the first runner up then the winner like they did up to 2010.
*Do you think they chose a winner who would be a good Miss USA or someone who could do well maybe even win Universe? I think Michigan fits the first rather than the latter.

Thank you for this video and looking forward to the next one!

As a pageant trainer myself, the question and answer segments give me the most thrill and excitement, apart from the evening gowns. And listening to the answers, they all need help. Even the winner. Good thing we still have months left to prepare -- if they're getting the best quality of preparation ever.

I fear this may be the first time, in a long time, USA doesn’t place for finals at Miss Universe. Alma is a lovely girl, but these other countries are turning out strong competitors.

22:50 « I’m no florist but this bouquet was SHAMEFUL » ☠️😂 You killed me

[bmillz]

The way I immediately clicked. I couldn’t wait to hear what a disaster this was according to you! 😭💙

[lucaskoy]

I highly doubt that USA is placing at Miss Universe this year. Not only because she’s not prepared but also because the level of contestants and new countries are wild!

[KarenArisbel]

I waited two hours at work to click on this 😂.
Nothing is more important for the rest 25 minutes in my life than this video.

[michaelposa]

This intro killed me!!! 😂. I personally was just fast forwarding to the ladies main segments, because the snoozefest was just so sad. Prelims though!!! Morgan Romano accidentally speaking on her mic “I have nooo binder” LMAO. That was absolutely foreshadowing for finals.

[reginabattle]

The comparison to past opening numbers to this year had me ON THE FLOOR LMAO. Dani, you are so incredible!

[ferdinandgamorot]

A straight forward, honest to goodness, and candid observation abt what is supposedly the biggest pageant in USA... what impressed me is the fact that you came up with ideas on how the pageant can be further improved...keep it up Miss Dani.

[HelloNF]

2003 opening in San Antonio is iconic cuz it’s the same venue they had in Miss Congeniality. That’s when I fall in love with pageant.

[littlemikeism]

It was the worst production of any pageant I've ever seen on television. This felt and looked like a high school production. The hosts were screaming throughout the night. It was horrible.
