She's a beautiful young lady and was 3rd runner up at Miss America! Personally, I think she was heads above the rest and should have been Miss America!
I like both ladies. It appears Marianne thought she had it. Kristi thinks Marianne has it too. And it's a BIG surprise when Kristi wins it. I think the reaction is genuine. If you pause it, after the announcement, you can see where Marianne frowns. I feel for her. I believe she was 1st runner-up twice. That really REALLY stinks to come so close, think you have it, then lose. Marianne was a great contestant. Either one would have been a good Miss VA.
You all are horrible and clueless. You all don't realize that she was not expecting to win and that when she did, she just became a triple crown winner which only 6 women in the world have won. You all need to check your facts before you make assuptions
This is such a classic reaction. I wouldn't say I like it since it's way overdramatic, but then again her reactions usually are. I remember at Miss Teen USA 99 she reacted as though she won just because she made top 10. If I ever need a good laugh, I watch this little video. LOL
I went to school(college) with Marianne. Her Singing far outshone kristi, and Marianne also owned the Swimsuit competition. DOn't believe me? Anyone who does hundreds of situps a day looks good in a bathing suit! Marianne (IMHO) should have won. Maybe i'm ust baised from knowing her. I will say that we didn't even get along that well. Exchanged pleasantries but that's about it.
She really wasn't being fake. Marianne Minton was expected to win and even Kristi thought Marianne had it.. you can see it in her face before the winner is announced.
You guys are mean! Kristi is my personal friend. Yea she was shocked.. wouldnt you be? And shes NOT fake! Think what ever you want, but she is FAR from being fake. And she is very beautiful. Unless you see her in person, you might not think so, but Kristi is an amazing person. <3kelsey
She is pretty and I am glad to know she is a nice person, but come on, could not have been more fake and practiced. I think she would have been shocked if she had lost. She had been Miss Virginia USA and Miss Virginia Teen USA, winning pageants is her greatest skill.
I think this is actually really cute...she seems genuinly thrilled over her victory and it's an honor as she just was crowned Miss Virginia. LoL it's the classic pageant reaction. Love the gown as well.
YES,,can't understand how she made Top 5 in Miss America. A mediocre singer and her reaction on winning appeared fake,just like a previous poster wrote.

It's a shame that Marianne Minton did not win - she had been runner-up several times...

That was so fake!!! I think she had a shot at Miss America until she sang final night.. was not cute.. Simon Cowell would surely have chopped her.
