There is a lot of pressure that comes along with
being a title holder.
There are a lot of opinions and you know,
you don't. Sometimes I think young women don't realize that
the pageant community can be so passionate and sometimes they're
passionate with their love and their support,
and that's incredible. But also they can be passionate in
ways that can affect us negatively.
We want Umassopia and Noelia to know that they are
not alone and we are here for them.
We're cheering them on. There's good and bad to any
year of being Miss USA,
and that's just part of life and part of the
role.
So I hope that there is a way that they
are released from their Ndas because they should be able
to share about their experiences just like I'm able to
share about my experiences.
