they didn't want to have two back to back black or biracial winners.. hence Miss South Carolina USA.. and you know that is what happened.. i thought that years ago and still feel the same way years later..
I have to say that I disagree with most of the comments below. Virginia was pretty but her evening gown was not outstanding and she took a negative approach on the final question. South Carolina looked amazing during the pageant with an extremely elegant gown. Her final answer was the most positive. She was also at the thinnest I think ever for her on this night. She looked much heavier at MU and MUSA 95 but this evening, she was the best overall candidate.
@sholloway84 How was Virginia's answer negative? And her gown was not outstanding? A lot of Miss USA winners have won in gowns that were less than outstanding. Oh well. It is what it is. It was 17 years ago and I have gotten over it.
Interesting that in 1993, Miss GA (who was white) was leading but lost out to Miss MI (who was black) who actually won the Prelims. One year later, the situation reversed: Miss VA (black) was leading (and she gave an almost identical interview as Miss GA in which both demonstrated their broadcasting skills) and lost out to Miss SC (white), the prelim winner.
@robinquinc329 , in 1993, everybody thought Georgia was going to win, even the commentators seem to think she was going to win. 1994 seem almost like a backlash to that upset victory. I swear, after Miss Virginia's near identical semi-finals interview to Georgia's in 1993, I knew this was going to happen again.
@PungiFungi Still somewhat shocked as Pat gave a much better answer to the final question that Lu did. And again in 1993, Kenya gave a much better answer than Georgia did. In fact, for me Georgia lost it on the final question. She was shaky and nervous and seemed unsure of herself, whereas, Kenya answered without even stopping to think it over. She showed sincerity and poise, compared to Georgia's nervousness.
I love Lou Parker, she is special, has a great and sexy smile, and she es beautiful, she represented USA very good in pHiliipines Miss Universe, and she was a new choise that year changing the thin and stupids girls crowned lately at the time as Miss USA.
on the other hand Dayanara Torres from Pto Rico MIss Universe 1993 is horrible, dwarf, big teeth, Kenya MIss USA 1993 is better than the puertorican Dayanara a lot!
Virginia was the total pageant patty that I just hate to see in pageants. Lu was always poised and showed more grace under pressure than anybody else in that pageant. Also, next to Kenya, Pat looked so small....Lu Parker won fair and square.
@lianlaspinas 1994 miss universe was broadcast by abs-cbn because they are global network and partner with CBS for miss universe 1994 RPN broadcast miss universe from 1995 to 2006..
I still have to wonder....did Bob Goen read the card right??????? Lu Parker was mediocre at best.........who bought this pageant for her??? Who did she sleep with to win?
I don't like this fucking Donald Trump because he removed the class of Miss USA, Miss Universe and Miss Teen USA!!!!!! They just make eeeeewwwwwy delegates and choose fray winners. I think that Donald Trump will die in 2020 and so Martin Brooks will take over again!!!! (i hope he's still alive)
¨this is your night¨ (or whatever its title is) was the best (closing) theme of the miss usa and miss universe pageants and this year (1994), sadly, was the last time it was used. i wish they had continued using this iconic and meaningful song together with the little sisters theme ¨you are my star.¨
@hazmetuyo Blame Donald Trump. He has completely destroyed the Miss Universe Organization and it has now become a trash spectacle. The girls are a bunch of airheads who are not articulate, beautiful or prepared. I wish they would take the Organization away from him.
Kenya was a great Miss USA. I hate the way she was treated at the Miss Universe in Mexico when she competed there. Still with all the boos she received there, she still showed herself every inch the beauty queen...regal and dignified!
Patricia was married to that loser Martin lawrence and he treated her trash i heard while they were married. I don't understand Martin. He was sexually harassing Tisha Campbell when he is married to such an attractive women like Patricia. Tisha Campbell is nowhere near as attractive as Patricia is. Martin is a loser.
I think if we look at the final question answers, South Carolina displayed a sence of confidence in her final answer even though it may of seemed wrong for her to say that, and Virgina kind of tried too hard to answer the final question with intelligent words! South Carolina kept it nice and simple with a rare sence of confidence!
I don't know what happened here but something went wrong. Based on the final answer either Virginia or North Carolina should have won. I like Lu Parker but she was the weakest of the three...just view the question segment!!
Politics again. South Carolina did not deserve to win miss USA 1994, Virginia did. It doesn't make any sence to participate in a pagent if Politics is going to stop you from winning.
sexytrannie go to hell! virginia should. How sillyt and immature you are. I bet you read a lot of comic books. Virginia looked like a cartoon character.
to 19911996, kimberly aiken won miss america in 93 and lu parker won miss usa in 94. not the same year but very close. they both also personally believe that us americans cant find the united states on a map. lol
i have to agree with some of the statements here mexico should NEVER host another paegent they were so disrespectful of our miss USA kenya moore! and i dont know how the hell miss south carolina won this paegent! its obvious miss virginia should have won!
This was the year that Lu Parker won Miss USA and Kimberly Aiken won Miss America. Both of these women represented South Carolina and was the last time (if not the first time) that both national queens came from the same state during the same year of service (reign). South Carolina has had luck in the past with sending intelligent women to pageants!!
@19911996 actually it happened twice in the 80s. In 1982, Arkansas had Terri Utley (USA) and Elizabeth Ward (Miss America]. The next year California had Julie Hayek [USA] and Debbie Maffett [Miss America].
I went to highschool with Pat Southall and I was totally disappointed when she placed second. She was a great friend to me and so many others. I had the priviledge of receiving a kiss on my cheek from time to time. She is a class act !
Miss Kenya was a perfect Miss USA, intelegent, beautiful a perfect package!
Mexicans was so bad to her in Miss Universe. I was happy that Miss Mexico that year didn´t went to the smifinalists in my opinoin they should be banned forver to participate in Miss Universe any more. Bad country to organize events they´are bad losers and they don´t respect the other culturs!
Mexicans was so roude to Miss USA on the Miss Universe they you be shamed the away they treat her!She was beautiful , inteligente, she could be a perfect Miss Universe!
South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia were the top 3? Woo, go mid-Atlantic east coast. I thought VA should have won for giving a better final question answer though.
This was definitely Pat's night but things happen for a reason. It was clearly not in Pat's fate to win Miss USA because look at her now. She is crazy wealthy and married to Emmitt Smith, she clearly didn't need that crown to seal her future. Plus she was married to Martin Lawrence before that.
