Miss District of Columbia USA & Teen USA 2013 results!
Miss DC USA and Teen USA were held on Sunday afternoon, the first year the pageant was produced by Five Crown Productions, directed by Carla Crawford. Carla is mother of Kamie Crawford, Miss Teen USA 2010. The new Miss District of Columbia USA is Jessica Frith, the first caucasian winner since 1999 and the first blonde since 1984. It’s interesting Miss DC USA has had very few Caucasian winners over the years, compared to the Miss DC America, which has had only two African-American winners in the past decade. Miss District of Columbia Teen USA 2013 is Despina Ades, of Greek origin.
First runner-up was Candiace Dillard, who moved up one spot after placing 2RU last year. She and 2RU Cierra Butts have both prevously competed in Maryland. 4RU Jessica Bermudez has not competed in the USA system previously, but has been a runner-up numerous times at Miss Maryland (America).
For me the biggest surprise was the non-placement of Brittany Byrdy, who had been a runner-up in Arizona in 2011 and 2012. Past DC runners-up Amelia Wolfe & Tara Ward also missed the cut.
