- The 73rd annual Miss USA pageant will happen in Los Angeles on August 4.
- The pageant has topped a winner yearly since 1952.
It is virtually time to crown a brand new Miss USA.
On August 4, 51 contestants will head to the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles for the 73rd annual Miss USA pageant.
The pageant will happen simply three months after Miss USA Noelia Voigt resigned as queen. Miss Teen USA UmaSofia Srivastava resigned two days later, and their moms instructed Business Insider that the pair couldn’t converse out instantly about their experiences with the Miss USA group due to NDAs.
Savannah Gankiewicz of Hawaii took over as Miss USA for Voigt and can crown the brand new winner on the pageant.
With a brand new queen to be topped in a matter of days, BI regarded again at who gained Miss USA every year since its inception in 1952.

Voigt was the primary Venezuelan American to turn into Miss USA when she was topped in Reno, Nevada, in September 2023.
However Voigt ended her reign early when she resigned as Miss USA on Could 6. She cited her psychological well being when she introduced she was stepping again as queen. Miss Teen USA UmaSofia Srivastava resigned two days later, saying her “personal values no longer fully align with the direction of the organization.”
Miss Hawaii Savannah Gankiewicz grew to become queen in Voigt’s stead.
Voigt and Srivastava’s moms instructed BI that their daughters have been bullied by Miss USA’s president and CEO, Laylah Rose, throughout their reigns. Rose and Miss USA didn’t reply to earlier requests for remark from BI.
