"Can't ... breathe ... "
ARLINGTON — The new Miss Texas for 2009 is 22-year-old Kristen Blair of Southlake, who competed as Miss North Texas.
The final evening of competition for the state's beauty queen crown took place at Texas Hall at the University of Texas at Arlington on Friday night (July 3). Blair performed a Puccini aria ("Nessunn Dorma" from Turandot, specifically), while other competitors resorted to (it says here) "ventriloquism, baton-twirling, dancing and singing."
Man, I would love to have seen that ventriloquist act.
Take a gander of this photo coverage of the pageant on the Miss Fort Worth site.

Congratulations Kristen, the new Miss Texas! By the way, I have worn the Miss Texas crown briefly,.. for the last six years, and only for fun, at local fundraisers, so watch-out Kristen!! See you this fall at one of these great events, for a goofy photo-op!
