Top 15 Best Performance: Miss USA 2012 Finals
15. Cobra Starship
Cobra Starship's music was fantastic during the Top 16 swimsuit competition. I personally like #1Nite (One Night). The sound was fresh and lively!
14. Michelle Leonardo (New Jersey), Semi-finalist
Doing the twirl thing in the swimsuit competition was good, but doing another for the evening gown portion was just too risky. She almost trip there!
13. Dayana Mendoza, Miss Universe 2008
Okay, Dayana did nothing but judge the ladies, but you just can't ignore her presence. She was too gorgeous not to get a spot on this list!
12. Lauren Lundeen (Oklahoma), Semi-finalist
I was never a fan of her bangs. But that's what made her unique from others. Move over, Anne Hathaway!
11. Jeannie Mai & Kelly Osbourne
They do their jobs with great passion and sense! And always with a big smile!
10. Alyssa Campanela, Miss USA 2011
She will always remain my sentimental favorite in Miss Universe 2011. Just love her final walk speech.
09. Nana Meriwether (Maryland), 1st Runner Up
Nana on her Preliminary Video Interview: "I'm an athlete, I played volleyball in UCLA.. I'm also applying to a medical school.." And again on her Top 10 video: "I started playing volleyball in the eighth grade.. I’m a two-time NCAA All-American and played professionally in Puerto Rico." And again on her final answer: "I'm applying to medical school, I was a two-time All American at UCLA, and I have so much to give.."
08. Akon
Akon is Akon. Period.
07. Jade Kelsall (Nevada), 3rd Runner Up
She's on fire! Sex appeal is all over her! Too bad the judges didn't buy her excuse that they were tired to name the current Vice President.
06. Brittany Booker (Texas), Semi-finalist
Another gorgeous lady! Brittany failed to advance to the Top 5 though she was perfect in her evening gown. What went wrong?
05. Andy Cohen & Giuliana Rancic
It was always nice seeing them working the stage together. If only Giuliana will go to Miss Universe in December with Andy. Then that would be exciting!
04. Jasmyn Wilkins (Georgia), 4th Runner Up
After Crystle Stewart, it would've been exciting to see this lady compete in Miss Universe. Too bad the question thrown to her was nothing but sugar.
03. Audrey Bolte (Ohio), 2nd Runner Up, Miss USA 2012
School Yellow Bus! Audrey was widely criticized for picking up Julia Robert's Pretty Woman as her example of an “accurate and positive” depiction of women (in movies and on television). I could forgive her for that. I find the question a bit difficult especially the "give us an example" part. It would have been hard to think of an example right away. Still Audrey remains my favorite!
02. Donald Trump
The Donald doing a lipsync of Carly Rae Jepsen's hit "Call Me Maybe" was fun to see. This version even landed in Billboard's The 10 Best 'Call Me Maybe' Covers. How cool is that?
01. Olivia Culpo, Miss USA 2012
The "transgender" question was something we all expected to hear and for sure the girls already had prepared an answer for that give-away question. Lucky Olivia, she was the one to get it and delivered it perfectly and convincingly. Congratulations Olivia!
