The MISS WISCONSIN USA and MISS WISCONSIN TEEN USA Pageants took place Sept. 10 at the Fond du Lac Performing Arts Center in Fond du Lac before a capacity crowd for the pageant finals.
The panel of judges selected Regina Gray of Milwaukee as MISS WISCONSIN USA 2018, and Alexis Loomans of Waunakee, as MISS WISCONSIN TEEN USA 2018. Both titleholders will now advance and compete next year at the MISS USA and MISS TEEN USA national pageants.
The competition, which is held annually, consists of three proportional segments: evening gown, swimwear/active wear and interview. Eligible young women must be between the ages of 14 and 27 and be unmarried residents of Wisconsin in order to compete in the pageant.
Regina and Alexis will each receive thousands of dollars in prizes and awards. Most importantly, they will have the opportunity to compete for the national titles of MISS USA and MISS TEEN USA this coming year.
Alexis will compete for the title of MISS TEEN USA at the national pageant next year. In addition, the new MISS USA will go on to represent the United States in the MISS UNIVERSE competition, which is televised in over 130 countries worldwide.
