				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Christina Milian stunned us just a few weeks ago when she stepped out sporting a band new purple-red hairdo. But it looks like the singer is still loving her look! Do you? Vote below!</h3>
<p><strong><a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/tag/christina-milian/" target="_blank">Christina Milian</a></strong> has been absolutely loving her new hair! The singer looked great on the red carpet of the <strong>Miss USA</strong> pageant in Las Vegas on June 16<strong> </strong>with her bright red hair on display in glamorous curls. The hair is a departure from her long brown hair that used to be her signature look, but we&#8217;re loving how Christina is embracing her new color!</p>
<p><span id="more-1117290"></span></p>
<h3>Christina Milian At Miss USA &#8212; Continues To Wow With New Hair</h3>
<p>Christina looked killer in a curve hugging dress with a plunging neckline, but we couldn&#8217;t take our eyes off her hair! The singer, who <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/05/22/christina-milian-red-hair-dyes/">dyed her hair in May,</a> is still rocking her new hair color.  While we&#8217;ve only seen Christina rock her new color with super straight locks, last night she wore it in glamorous curls with a super deep side part. It also looks like Christina may have cut bangs to jump aboard the <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/12/january-jones-bangs-haircut-before-after-pics/">latest Hollywood beauty trend</a>!</p>
<p>Christina loved showing off her hair last night. She posed and posted multiple pictures on Instagram of her at the event. One picture featured <em>Real Housewives</em> star <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/tag/nene-leakes/"><strong>Nene Leakes</strong></a>. Christina captioned the picture &#8220;All black everything with beautiful @NeneLeakes&#8230; #tallsandsmalls #MissUSA&#8221;. Nene&#8217;s hair was platinum blonde, so both ladies were rocking bold hair colors!</p>
<p>So, <strong>HollywoodLifers</strong>, tell us what you think of Christina&#8217;s hair. Are you still loving it? Or do you loathe it? Vote below!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>So sad. It was heartbreaking to watch Marissa Powell unable to formulate a clear answer to her final question during the June 16 Miss USA pageant. Keep reading and watch the video.</h3>
<p>Poor Miss Utah <strong>Marissa Powell.</strong> She just couldn&#8217;t seem to even grasp the meaning of her final question during the <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/16/erin-brady-miss-usa-winner-2013/#!1/miss-usa-tsr/">Miss USA competition</a>. No wonder she couldn&#8217;t articulate any sort of clear response.</p>
<p><span id="more-1117246"></span></p>
<h3>Miss Utah Stumbles On Final Question &#8212; Marissa Powell&#8217;s Miss USA Flop</h3>
<p>A question about women&#8217;s wages in America left Marissa desperately searching for words. It was painful to behold &#8212; we certainly feel for Marissa and certainly now know why she wasn&#8217;t the star of her debating team at college.</p>
<p>Marissa, a 21-year-old Salt Lake City native, wore a sequin-lined dress on June 16. She was asked an interesting and pretty thought provoking question by judge <strong>NeNe Leakes:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>“A recent report shows that in 40 percent of American families with children, women are the primary earners, yet they continue to earn less than men. What does it say about society?”</p></blockquote>
<p>Marissa&#8217;s less than comprehensible response &#8230;.</p>
<blockquote><p>“I think we can relate this back to education, and how we are continuing to try to strive … to … figure out how to create jobs right now. That is the biggest problem right now. I think, especially the men are … um … seen as the leaders of this, and so we need to see how to … create education better. So that we can solve this problem. Thank you.”</p></blockquote>
<p>On a positive note, Marissa Powell still went on and earned third runner-up, as well as Miss Photogenic honors! Miss Connecticut, <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/17/miss-usa-winner-erin-brady-5-things/#!1/miss-usa-tsr/"><strong>Erin Brady</strong>, won the competition</a> and will represent the United States at the Miss Universe pageant on November 9.</p>
<p>What do YOU think, <strong>HollywoodLifers</strong>? Did Miss Utah just have a brain fart? Has that ever happened to you? Tell us about it.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Miss Connecticut was crowned as the new Miss USA on June 16! But who exactly <em>is</em> Erin Brady? We have all the scoop!</h3>
<p>The <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/16/erin-brady-miss-usa-winner-2013/#!1/miss-usa-tsr/">2013 Miss USA Competition</a> on June 16 was a night of thrills and surprises, but the best moment was when <strong><a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/tag/erin-brady/">Erin Brady</a> </strong>(Miss Connecticut) took home the crown!</p>
<p><span id="more-1117238"></span></p>
<h3>Erin Brady: 5 Things To Know About Miss Connecticut</h3>
<p>1. Erin Brady is taken; she&#8217;s engaged to <strong>Tony Capasso</strong>. @Glenda_G_ tweeted, &#8220;Congrats to Erin Brady (Mrs. Future Capasso) I&#8217;m so proud of you!!!!!!!!!!! Miss CT now Miss USA! Yessssss CT Stand Up!!!!!&#8221; (And yes, they have their own <a href="http://www.ewedding.com/sites/bradyerj/" rel="nofollow">wedding website</a>.)</p>
<p>2. Her wedding date conflicts with the Miss Universe pageant! Nov. 9, 2013 was announced as the date of this year&#8217;s pageant in Moscow.  (Uh oh!)</p>
<p>3. Erin grew up in a family that suffered from alcohol and substance abuse. She&#8217;s now an advocate for children in similar situations.</p>
<p>4. She graduated with a degree in finance and a minor in criminal justice from Central Connecticut State University. She&#8217;s currently a financial accountant for Prudential Retirement in Hartford, Conn. She plans to get her MBA soon, and she&#8217;d like to be involved with Pension Risk Transfers.</p>
<p>5. Twitter users are not fans of Erin&#8217;s. While answering questions in regards to social media, Erin said she&#8217;s a people person and would much rather talk to someone on the phone, as opposed to tweeting or Facebooking others. Unfortunately, the comment ticked off some of her fans. @The CatchFence wrote, &#8220;Oh, Miss Connecticut doesn&#8217;t like Twitter? Well then F u too.&#8221;</p>
<p><em>So HollywoodLifers &#8212; do you think the right person won the crown? Let us know!</em></p>

<p>Fifty-one of the nation&#8217;s loveliest ladies assembled in Las Vegas on June 16 for the <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/miss-usa">2013 Miss USA Competition</a>, igniting a competition of beauty, brains &#8212; and, of course, bikinis! But did the right woman take home the crown? Read on for <strong>HollywoodLife.com</strong>&#8216;s full review of the judges, the performances and the newly crowned Miss USA.<span id="more-1116666"></span></p>
<h3>Erin Brady: Miss USA Winner 2013</h3>
<p>While we&#8217;re used to a top five, this year was a bit different. After Miss Utah, Alabama, Illinois, South Carolina and Connecticut were chosen as the final five, <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/giuliana-rancic">Giuliana Rancic</a> </strong>surprised the remaining contestants by letting them know that viewers at home voted for a sixth on Twitter! The extra finalist was <strong>Ali</strong> <strong>Negent</strong> from Texas.</p>
<p>After the long wait a new winner was crowned! It came down to Miss Alabama and Miss Connecticut!</p>
<p>It was a night of thrills and surprises &#8211; <strong>Erin Brady </strong>(Miss Connecticut) ended up taking home the crown!</p>
<h3>Giuliana Rancic &amp; Nick Jonas: Perfect Co-Hosts</h3>
<p>Giuliana and <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/nick-jonas">Nick Jonas</a> </strong>were on hand to host the big event, and honestly, we can&#8217;t think of two people more qualified for the job. Giuliana always leaves us in stitches when she gets real on E!&#8217;s <em>Fashion Police</em>, and she definitely kept the mood light as she judged the Miss USA contestants.</p>
<p>As for Nick, the youngest Jonas Brother has proven time and again that he&#8217;s got great taste in women. (<strong>Selena Gomez </strong>and <strong>Miley Cyrus</strong>, anyone?)</p>
<h3>Jonas Brothers &amp; DJ Pauly D Perform At Miss USA Competition</h3>
<p>But Nick did more than just <em>host </em>the big event; he also delivered an incredible performance! Together with <strong><a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/kevin-jonas">Kevin</a> </strong>and <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/joe-jonas"><strong>Joe Jonas</strong></a>, the fully-formed <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/16/jonas-brothers-miss-universe-performance-pom-poms/">Jonas Brothers tore up the Miss USA stage</a> with a medley including &#8220;Pom Poms,&#8221; &#8220;First Time,&#8221; and new song &#8220;Neon.&#8221; Even after all these years, the JoBros still know how to make us swoon &#8212; even with 15 gorgeous women<a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/16/miss-usa-swimsuit-competition-bikini-photos-2013/"> flaunting their bikini bods</a> to their music!</p>
<p>And honestly, how could America possibly objectify a gaggle of gorgeous women in bikinis <em>without </em>a little help from <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/pauly-d"><strong>DJ Pauly D</strong></a>? With no grenades in sight, former <em>Jersey Shore </em>star lent his table-turning skills to the big event for a get-up-and-shake-your-ass performance of his own.</p>
<p>Consider the &#8220;talent&#8221; portion of this year&#8217;s competition officially covered.</p>
<p><em>So HollywoodLifers &#8212; do you think the right person won the crown? Let me know!</em></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>One of the most notable parts of the Miss USA pageant each year is the swimsuit competition. On June 16, it was no different. The top 15 took the stage at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, showing off their amazing figures in bikinis.</h3>
<p>All fifty of the contestants in the<a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/miss-usa"> 2013 Miss USA</a> pageant showed off their bikini figures in the preliminaries, but only the top 15 rocked out to the <a href="hollywoodlife.com/tag/jonas-brothers"><strong>Jonas Brothers</strong></a> <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/16/jonas-brothers-miss-universe-performance-pom-poms/">performing in the background</a>!</p>
<p><span id="more-1116949"></span></p>
<h3>Miss USA Top 15 Stun In Swimwear</h3>
<p>The top 15 presented their sexy bodies in blue swimsuits &#8212; and were kicked off by a performance by the <strong>Jonas Brothers</strong>.</p>
<p>After the bros performed &#8220;Pom Poms,&#8221; with a little dance from the  girls in the background,&#8221; the first half of the top 15 strutted their stuff.</p>
<p>The front-runners from Texas, Ohio, Louisiana, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, Alabama, Massachusetts and California all looked beyond gorgeous in their itty-bitty bikinis, while the Jonas Brothers jammed out in the background.</p>
<p>Then, for the first time live, the JoBros performed their new song &#8220;Neon,&#8221; and it seemed to really get the crowd going! They somehow didn&#8217;t get distracted by all the gorgeous girls in bikinis!</p>
<p>Next up were Miss North Carolina, West Virginia, Maryland, Illinois, Nevada, Connecticut, and Utah, who all wowed the crowd with their poise. The ladies&#8217; swimsuit competition was closed down with JoBros &#8220;First Time.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hosts <a href="hollywoodlife.com/tag/giuliana-rancic"><strong>Giuliana Rancic</strong></a> and JoBros&#8217; star <a href="hollywoodlife.com/tag/nick-jonas"><strong>Nick Jonas</strong></a> looked stunning as well during the competition!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>The Jonas Brothers were back in performing action June 16 at the 2013 Miss USA Competition. While Nick juggled hosting duties, the brothers rocked out onstage with new songs!</h3>
<p>The <a href="hollywoodlife.com/tag/jonas-brothers"><strong>Jonas Brothers</strong></a> performed new songs off their upcoming album at the <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/miss-usa">2013 Miss USA Competition</a> on June 16 at the Planet Hollywood Resort &amp; Casino in Las Vegas. With their fifth album <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/04/02/jonas-brothers-north-american-tour/">world tour</a> on the horizon, this was the perfect opportunity to get everyone hyped up for the return of the JoBros &#8212; right in the middle of the swimsuit competition!</p>
<p><span id="more-1115821"></span></p>
<h3>Jonas Brothers Perform New Songs At Miss USA</h3>
<p>The JoBros are back! After giving us a sample of what to expect from their album with <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/03/31/jonas-brothers-pom-poms-video-new-music/">&#8220;Pom Poms&#8221;</a> and <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2013/06/13/jonas-brothers-first-time-new-song-audio/">&#8220;First Time&#8221;</a>, <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Kevin-Jonas"><strong>Kevin</strong></a>, <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Joe-Jonas"><strong>Joe</strong></a>, and <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Nick-Jonas"><strong>Nick Jonas</strong></a> gave us what we wanted tonight: more music!</p>
<p>Along with the aforementioned singles, the brothers also performed a new song, &#8220;Neon&#8221; at the June 16 pageant. Their medley showed just how much variety they&#8217;re going to offer on the new album. They&#8217;ve grown-up so much since their &#8220;Year 3,000&#8243; days!</p>
<p>They had all the ladies swooning over their new songs, and we can&#8217;t to hear the full album!</p>
<h3>Nick&#8217;s Busy Schedule During Miss USA</h3>
<p>In addition to performing, the youngest of the popular boy band, Nick, also served as co-host with <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/tag/Giuliana-Rancic"><strong>Giuliana Rancic</strong></a>! Nick made his busy schedule throughout the night look like easy.</p>
<p>At just 20 years old, he&#8217;s proved he can do it all: music, hosting and Broadway!</p>
<p>One thing&#8217;s for sure: We&#8217;re so glad the JoBros are back. It&#8217;s been too long without a good dose of music from the cutest brother band ever.</p>
<p><em>So <strong>HollywoodLifers</strong>, what did YOU think of the Jonas Brothers performance at Miss USA? Do you think Nick did a good job of hosting? Drop a comment with your review below!</em></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>This is definitely one way to stop animal cruelty! 38-year-old reality star Shanna Moakler and three younger former Miss USAs stripped all the way down to promote PETA&#8217;s &#8216;Say No To Fur&#8217; message.</h3>
<p>Sex sells, but can it get people to stop wearing fur? The animal rights organization <a href="http://hollywoodlife.com/2011/01/05/glee-lea-michele-peta-carriage-horses-abuse/">PETA is once again hoping it can</a> &#8212; on June 13 they released a new ad featuring four former Miss USAs &#8212; completely naked!</p>
<p><span id="more-1115477"></span></p>
<h3>Miss USAs Go Nude For PETA</h3>
<p>The poster shows <strong>Shanna Moakler</strong>, 38, <strong>Alyssa Campanella</strong>, 23, <b>Shandi Finnessey</b>, 35, and <strong>Susie Castillo</strong>, 33, cozying up to each other totally nude (well, except for those high heels). The former Miss USAs have some strategically-placed hands draped over each other to cover up certain spots, and the ad also features the clever tagline, &#8220;Feel beautiful in your own skin, and let animals keep theirs.&#8221;</p>
<p>Shanna, Alyssa, Shandi, and Susie <em>definitely </em>look beautiful in their own skin (emphasis on skin!).</p>
<h3>PETA&#8217;s Sexy Anti-Fur Campaign</h3>
<p>PETA reports that every year millions of animals are electrocuted, beaten, drowned, and often skinned alive for their fur. That alarming stat was enough to compel the Miss USAs to strip down. &#8220;When it comes to the anti-fur campaign, it&#8217;s really close to my heart,&#8221; says Shanna in a behind the scenes video. &#8220;I&#8217;ve been awarded fur coats and I&#8217;m hoping to stop it in our pageant community.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I was appalled,&#8221; said Susie. &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t believe that that was still going on, knowing what we know today.&#8221;</p>
<p>This is obviously a message that the Miss USAs feel strongly about, and they&#8217;re obviously willing to do <em>whatever </em>it takes to get it out. Will the sexy naked photo shoot work &#8212; let us know what you think, <strong>HollywoodLifers</strong>!</p>
