Miss America 2016 is crowned

Betty Cantrell, representing the southern US state of Georgia, was crowned Miss America 2016 late Sunday.
Cantrell, overcome by emotion, received the crown from last year’s winner, Kira Kazantsev of New York, then waved to the tune of the pageant’s theme songThere she is, Miss America.
The classic tune had been on hiatus for the past five years due to legal wrangling with song author’s estate.
“I’m so excited about this opportunity!” Cantrell gushed in a video posted on her Twitter account after event.
She was especially excited about being the first Miss Georgia to win the nationally televised pageant since 1958.
In the final round of questions, however, Cantrell fumbled an answer about the “deflategate” scandal surrounding Patriots football star Tom Brady.
McGuffin was fourth runner-up in the contest, according to Gulf news.
