Exact Reason Why Prestigious MISS AMERICA Cancelled Competing With SwimSuits

“We will no longer judge our candidates on their outward physical appearance,” Carlson said onGMA. “That’s huge. And that means we will no longer have a swimsuit competition.” Carlson went on to explain what the judges will be looking for instead.

“It’s going to be what comes out of their mouth that we’re interested in when they talk about their social impact initiatives. We want to be open, transparent, and inclusive to women who may not have been comfortable participating in our competition before.”

Only time will tell how the changes will pan out.
