Nearly 800,000 views on its first day... how much does YouTube pay per view again?

Does anybody understand what she is talking about and please somebody buy her a dictionary so she can look up what 'MAP' means.

L&L, Steve

[Jim H. Moreno]

Wow. Just... wow.

[mace]

What?

[Allyn]

Good lord....I hope she didn't win!

[digitalucifer]

Did she mean IMAP? Oh wait, this is MACarthur turf. That should be iMAP.

[eric f.]

I know this is bad, but on the upside, the announcer is thinking..."I totally have a chance to bang this chick tonight".

[Amber Mac]

I don't know what she is thinking...it's one of those vids where you really want her to say something smart, but it NEVER happens...

[Rebecca]

Poor girl!
Am I the only one who pity her?

[WolvenSpectre]

...

(speachless)

[Jason Nulph]

That is what happens when you cruse though life depending on your looks. Check it out? When was the last time you met a really hot doctor? Umm right never. And hot shes not a poor girl she just polishes her looks more than her mind.

She needs a mashup.

[Tim Barber]

1) Be nice if she answered the question!

2) It seems to me she had some rehearsed answers for questions they may have asked and gave one or a combination of what she had rehearsed reqardless of the question asked!

3) It is a sad situation!

[Sina Motamedi]

It almost hurt to watch this. Like nails on a chalkboard.

[John]

I bet Amber would give a good answer

[Patrick John O'Mahony]

Blond.

What else can you say?

Pat

[Chaf]

This is painful to listen to! Nice attempt on filling tv time though !

[g1]

I don't know how anyone can watch this, I mean don't you feel embarrassed for her? Or at least uncomfortable? I always turn the channel when stuff like this is about to happen on a show. :D

[Chris]

The really sad part is that she probably went to an expensive private school where thinking is discouraged and networking is encouraged... She'll be at Yale or Harvard soon

[John]

Never at McGill for sure.

[Pete Prodoehl]

Everyone on this site is now dumber for having watched her.

[John]

Not at all dumber. When she attends Yale I'll take the occasion to invite her over for a game of checkers. (By the way isn't Amber a blond? Checkers Amber?)

[SteveintheUK]

Just found out that this girl finished 3rd... How bad where the others then?

As for Amber being a blonde too, that is true but she's Canadian, the USA smarter neighbours.

Pageant Contestant Re-Answers Question

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- This time, the question was a little easier for Miss Teen South Carolina. After being stumped by a Miss Teen USA pageant question on live television Friday night, Lauren Caitlin Upton's confused, mangled response has been drawing a lot of attention.

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."

A YouTube video of Upton has drawn a couple million hits and thousands of comments, many of them with harsh remarks for the Lexington High School graduate who plans to attend Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C.

Upton was taking her flubbed answer - and the attention - in stride.

"Everything did come at me at once. I was overwhelmed and I made a mistake. Everybody makes a mistake. I'm human," she said Tuesday. "I seriously think I only heard about one or two words of the actual question."

Upton's former principal Creig Tyler remembered her as a well-rounded student.

"She took college-prep and honors courses and performed well," Tyler told The (Columbia) State newspaper.

Miss Teen Colorado Hilary Carol Cruz won the crown. Upton was third runner-up.

OK, for the record, I'm naturally a brunette! :)

What a beautiful girl...Did she say something by the way?..
