On Sunday night, the latest Miss America was crowned — and for the third year in a row, the beauty comes from good ol’ New York.
But who is this new Miss America? Here’s everything you need to know about Kira Kazantsev.
She currently lives in Murray Hill . . .
So all her friends are most likely bros.
. . . but she’s originally from California.
We won’t hold that against her, though. Kazantsev moved to New York five years ago for school at Long Island’s Hofstra University.
She loves anything “Jane Austin.”
During the “Happy” performance, this “fun fact” appeared on-screen, with production misspelling beloved English novelist Jane Austen.
She enjoys street hot dogs.
This was another of the bizarro “fun facts” that appeared throughout the night.
She’s fluent in Russian and speaks Spanish.
That’s a lot of words.
Her cause is not world peace.
During the Q&A portion of the competition, she urged lawmakers to take note of the sexual assault problem in the military. Her platform is domestic violence.
She’s kind of like a real-life Elle Woods.
She’s planning on using the $50,000 scholarship she won last night to attend law school and has already been accepted to Fordham.
