[darin]

or just SOO Beyond FLUSTERED.



Question:Question: Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the US on a world map. Why do you think this is?

Answer: I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our education such as in South Africa and in Iraq everywhere like such as and I believe that they should our education over here in the US should help the US, or should help South Africa and should help Iraq and the asian countries so we will be able to build up our future.

Miss South Clack-a-lacky, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

'Ditzy Chick' Did Beauty Pageants to Improve Communication
Miss South Carolina Teen USA claims she lost train of thought in TV meltdown

By Joe Kovacs
© 2007 WorldNetDaily.com


The 18-year-old beauty contestant who mesmerized the nation with her verbal "brilliance" at the Miss Teen USA pageant over the weekend originally entered the realm of beauty pageants to improve her personal communication skills, WND can reveal.

"I was never much of a pageant girl," Lauren Caitlin Upton said in an interview published just hours before Friday's competition. "When I first started pageants, I wanted to build up my communication skills for interviews for college and for jobs. I was determined to prove I was able to accomplish anything I put my mind to."

The ironic comments were recorded in her local paper, the State of Columbia, S.C., which she told for today's edition that she "completely misunderstood" the geography question posed to her.

"I didn't do anything wrong. I wasn't expecting [the question]. I lost my train of thought."

Miss South Carolina Teen USA says she graduated with a 3.5 grade-point average from Lexington High School in June, and was a varsity athlete and student leader.

"Things happen for a reason," she said. "That's the way life goes."

"I just want people to know that I'm an average teenage girl, living life to the fullest, learning from my mistakes and living life in a positive way, and that is all I can ask for."

WND was the first news organization to report on Upton's "extreme blonde moment" during Friday night's NBC broadcast from Pasadena, Calif.

When asked about the reason why some Americans could not locate the U.S. on a world map, Upton provided an answer that some call moronic and hilarious, while others say was painful to watch.

As part of the competition, Upton was asked what host Mario Lopez called a "thought-provoking final question" selected at random.

Upton selected judge Aimee Teegarden who asked her: "Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the United States on a world map. Why do you think this is?"

Miss Teen South Carolina Lauren Caitlin Upton fumbles through an answer during Miss Teen USA Pageant on NBC Aug. 24, 2007

The South Carolina beauty gave this incoherent, grammarless response:

I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps, and, uh, I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and, uh, the Iraq everywhere like, such as and I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., er, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children.
Lopez told People Magazine he wanted to help Upton, but was instructed not to talk to the contestants while they were answering.

"It was a very intense moment. It's live TV. You don't know what the question is until you get up there. And I believe that she misunderstood it. She went down the wrong road and couldn't figure out how to get back to the right one," he said. "I felt really badly for her."

While millions have seen her clip on the Internet and television, Upton said she's not interested in taking a gander.

"I don't really want to hear myself," she laughingly told the State.

Upton was asked in her pre-pageant Q&A session with the paper: "What is the first thing you will do when you get home?"

"Eat me some hamburgers," she responded. "I haven't eaten hamburgers, French fries or hot dogs in three years, and I just want to see what it tastes like."

In the wake of WND's coverage of Upton, "Tonight Show" host Jay Leno played the video clip during his program this evening, and joked, "People in South Carolina [are] filing out now."

Andrew Levy, the ombudsman for the Fox News Channel's overnight show "Red Eye" sarcastically noted, "Whitney Houston says she no longer believes the children are our future."

Upton has been represented by Greensboro, N.C.-based Locke Management, a professional modeling agency, where she has numerous glamour shots of herself posted online.

According to her profile, the 5-foot-9 model "enjoys all sports but loves soccer, jet skiing, the beach, hiking in the mountains and country music."

WND readers have flooded the site with comments about Upton.

Pete Garbacki said "the only intelligent thing she did was to specify 'U.S. Americans.' Canadians and Mexicans are also 'Americans' technically. We are of the United States. That is actually an intelligent thing that many of your readers are too dense to understand."

Upton will get another chance at answering questions in the morning as she's slated to appear on NBC's "Today Show."

Yeah... avatar thought she needed a break because she was fifteen.

If she didn't understand the question, she should have asked to have it repeated. No one would have thought anything of it. How could she have let herself ramble on like that? I can't believe she's very bright.

..... Many times "beauty times brains equals a constant". :laugh2:

[dan]

Yeah, she can come up with as many excuses as she wants, fact is, she knew there was a Q&A, she knew she'd have to think on her toes, and she blew it. She had a "blonde" moment. Nice to see The State quoted in national news, I guess.

I do, however, find it kind of irritating that the winner's question was, "who's your favorite: Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, or Nicole Ritchie". There should be more unity in the questions than that.

And, not to be a jerk, but who ever thought a beauty contestant was expected to be smart in the first place?

I'm joking... cut me some slack.

how long do you want that slack? Ive got an ax just for cutting:D :death:

[avatar4321]

Okay, she is 18. didnt know that. But i still think she should be cut some slack. After all its not like schools are actually teaching people things nowadays.

[darin]

And even if she were 15 or 25 - Just because she's hot and not-smart, doesn't mean she's immoral. :)

I just hope this incident helps motivate her to make sure she is prepared and that something like this never happens again.

...and motivates her to move to Washington and be my 'nanny'. :D

Wouldn't cutting her some slack just reinforce stupidity? Obviously, I don't think this specific girl needs to be held up to ridicule, and I think it's sad that it's getting as much media attention as it is, but this may just be a regional thing for me, though.

[darin]

Neither would I...after the divorce "she" would cause. :D

I heard her on the radio this morning with a much better answer, though she still didn't sound like the sharpest knife in the drawer.

The 18-year-old got a chance to redeem herself Tuesday on NBC's "Today" show when she was again asked why one-fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a map.

"I would love to re-answer that question," Upton said. "Well personally, my friends and I, we know exactly where the United States is on our map. I don't know anyone else who doesn't. And if the statistics are correct, I believe there should be more emphasis on geography."

That was much better than her previous response, which included "U.S. Americans" and mentions of South Africa and "the Iraq."

[Abbey Marie]

Or just nevous beyond your imagination.

Sure, that's got to be it. :coffee:

[glockmail]

Sure, that's got to be it. :coffee: I think that had a lot to do with it. She's got a 3.5 after all.

[Abbey Marie]

I think that had a lot to do with it. She's got a 3.5 after all.

Of course, courses vary greatly in schools. While our kids are taking advanced AP clases, others are taking the lowest-end courses and possibly skating through. No way to know in her case, though, so you could be right.

Of course, courses vary greatly in schools. While our kids are taking advanced AP clases, others are taking the lowest-end courses and possibly skating through. No way to know in her case, though, so you could be right. In our district an AP "C" equals a 4.0, and I thought that was a national standard now. Of course I coud be wrong. I'm not gunny.

[dan]

I think that had a lot to do with it. She's got a 3.5 after all.

Let me tell you a story about a girl I went to high school with who graduated with a 3.8 GPA. She was very pretty and easily one of the dumbest people I've ever known, basically the typical head cheerleader stereotype. But, with those male teachers, all she had to do was show off a little cleavage and pout over her grades and she'd get her A. Also, her daddy was the richest dentist in town and a "primary contributor" to the school. Sure that had nothing to do with it. Oh, and she got a 650 on her SAT's and yet still got into Clemson, which I'm sure had nothing to do with the fact that daddy was an alumni who donated greatly to the school. That situation has me thoroughly convinced that GPA doesn't tell you how smart someone is, just how well they can play the system in their favor.

Aaaaand, having said all that, I think in this girl's case (Miss SC), a lot of it was nerves. Not all of it, but I don't think she always thinks/talks the way she did in that one moment. The more I think about it, the more sorry I feel for her. Then again, I've seen her face and name a whole lot more over the past 2 days than I've seen the winner's!

Sure she gave a better answer... AFTER SHE HAD ALL NIGHT TO THINK ABOUT IT... :laugh:

[Pale Rider]

I still think that even if she didn't understand the question, to stand up there and ramble off that totally incoherent line of absolute babble while LISTENING to herself SAY it... she just can't be very bright.

She doesn't need slack... that won't teach her anything. She needs further education in comprehension.

Nonetheless - she is HOT!
