I judged my first USA local pageant, and had a blast!! Thanks to the NYC USA pageant organization for giving me this opportunity to judge Miss and Teen Manhattan USA. I had a fun filled weekend in NY with a friend and met some very inspiring young ladies. New York is certainly full of life and beautiful young ladies to compete for the title. I am convinced we have chosen very qualified candidates for the Miss and Teen New York USA pageant this year. Both titleholders very very impressive in interview and on stage!! Best wishes to the Manhattan USA organization and titleholders. Thanks again, I had a wonderful expreience and made some new friends!
