Last night, Olivia Culpo, 20, of Rhode Island beat out 50 other contestants(including a girl who looked JUST like Cynthia Bailey and Marlo Hampton's love child) to become Miss USA 2012. Many believe her masterful answer about allowing transsexual contestants in the Miss USA pageant system led to her crowning.
"I do think that that would be fair, but I can understand that people would be a little apprehensive to take that road because there is a tradition of natural-born women, but today where there are so many surgeries and so many people out there who have a need to change for a happier life, I do accept that because I believe it's a free country," Culpo said.
