Miss South Carolina Sounds Stupid

Miss South Carolina, Lauren Caitlin Upton, gave the FUNNIEST response during last night’s Miss Teen USA pageant!!!!

Host Mario Lopez stood by as she was asked, “Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can’t locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?”

Miss South Carolina answered, “I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uhmmm, some people out there in our nation don’t have maps and uh, I believe that our, I, education like such as uh, South Africa, and uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uhhh, our education over here in the US should help the US, uh, should help South Africa, it should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future, for us.”

Miss Upton managed third runner-up!!!! Thanks, DListed! For more video of Miss Genius speaking, check out these interview questions!

save by the bell. I thought they teach these girls to give non answers to every question. Maybe she just was nervous.

This is the product of reading too much tabloits. It is dumbing down people all over the world.

Huh? Help South Africa, Iraq and Asian countries? She has some nerve seeing as her education obviously failed her.

This chick brings new meaning to the words “If I could do it again”.

I love the two comments above proclaiming Miss South Carolina stupid and then saying she was third place.

“Third runner-up” = Fourth Place. Idiots.

And to her credit, the question was a bit blah. Then again ANY other answer would’ve been better than what she gave.

Well I can’t help but wonder if she was just nervous. I think pageants are silly to begin with.

#14 mack- It’s dumb, not dumnd. If you are going to insult Americans about their intelligence do it right. I bet she doesn’t even care about Iraq or South Africa. She is just trying to score points.

who are the judges anyway? this just proved that they’re dumber (or more stupid) than her. they should just change this to Miss STUPID Teen USA pageant. I wonder what is the question and answer for the winner and 2nd runner up.

I feel sorry for her. She will probably get every materialistic thing out of her shallow life that she wants because of her looks but she will never be able to truly know and understand the world around her.

well, this Miss represents the fifth American citizen who can’t locate the US on the map.

She should have said “There should be Peace and love”

I bet she can’t even find Canada on the Map
