Teen Beauty Queen in Live TV Meltdown
Tuesday, August 28, 2007
A hilarious moment during NBC's Miss Teen USA pageant last Friday night. 18-year-old contestant Lauren Caitlin Upton was asked why some Americans could not locate the United States on a map. Her rambling response (which can be found on YouTube) was as funny as it was uncomfortable:"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps, and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq everywhere like, such as and I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., er, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children."
Upton says she wasn't expecting the question and lost her train of thought.
