Miss America Announces Major Changes for 2018

The 97 year old beauty contesting is changing it’s game in the #MeToo, #TimesUp era and it’s about time!! Former winner and current chair of the Board of Trustees, Gretchen Carlson, dropped the news on Good Morning America.

“We hear from a lot of young women who say, ‘We’d love to be a part of your program but we don’t want to be out there in high heels and a swimsuit,’ so guess what, you don’t have to do that anymore.”

Interesting changes… but how will they ‘work’?? I guess we’ll have to wait and see.
