Topic: Miss Colorado

During the Miss America Q&A, Miss Colorado suggested that comedian Ellen DeGeneres should be the woman featured on the $10 bill. She cited DeGeneres's platform of tolerance, equality, and kindness as the primary reasons for the honor. The answer was met with ridicule by some observers who viewed it as a superficial response to a significant historical and political question.

Miss Colorado is questioned about the government regulation of anonymous social networking sites used for gossip. Her response, advocating for being "above the status," is mocked by the hosts as a typical example of vacuous pageant dialogue.
