Noelia Voigt, Miss Utah, took the title over at the end of the event, held at Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, Nevada on Friday (September 29).

Miss Hawaii Savannah Gankiewicz was the runner-up, with Miss Wisconsin Alexis Loomans as the second runner-up.

Just days ahead of the final competitions, Noelia took to Instagram to share her excitement about competing.

“The past seven years of my pageant journey have all led me to this moment,” she wrote. “I usually have a bit of nerves before interview, but right now, I feel completely at peace. I can’t wait to get into that room, connect with the judges, and show them 100% of who Noelia is!”

Noelia‘s crowning moment came just a day after UmaSofia Srivastava, who was Miss Teen New Jersey, was crowned Miss Teen USA 2023.

The 2022 Miss USA pageant was held this week and R’Bonney Gabriel made history as the first Filipino-American woman to win the title.

In addition to her history-making win, R’Bonney was also the first Asian-American woman to be named Miss Texas USA.

In the days after the pageant, other contestants have spoken out with accusations that the competition was rigged.

Miss Montana Heather Lee O’Keefe alleged that “most of the Miss USA contestants feel very strongly that there was favoritism towards Miss Texas USA and we have the receipts to prove it.”

When asked if she would compete in the pageant under President Donald Trump‘s ownership, she told Yahoo, “I’m not sure.”

The Miss USA pageant has found its two new co-hosts after original hosts Cheryl Burke, Thomas Roberts, and Jeannie Mai dropped out because of Donald Trump‘s racist comments.

Game show host Todd Newton and former Miss Wisconsin USA Alex Wehrley will be taking on the job for this coming Sunday (July 12), when the pageant will air on the Reelz network. Julie Alexandria will be acting as a backstage correspondent, TMZ reports.

NBCUniversal cut ties with Donald after his comments about immigrants, including saying Mexicans are “rapists” who are “bringing drugs” into America.

The Miss USA Pageant, which was dropped by NBC and Univision due to Donald Trump‘s comments on immigration, has found a new home at the Reelz network.

“The decision on the part of Reelz to acquire the rights to the MISS USA Pageant was based on our belief that this special event, and the women who compete in it, are an integral part of American tradition,” Stan E. Hubbard, CEO of Reelz, said in a statement. “As one of only a few independent networks, we decided to exercise our own voice and committed ourselves to bringing this pageant to American viewers everywhere.”

Donald has come under a lot of fire for his comments on immigration. This is what he said: “The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. … When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”
