Congrats Miss America

The Miss America pageant has crowned its first winner from an Indian background – an aspiring doctor who plans to use the $50,000  prize money to fund her studies.

"I'm so happy this organisation has embraced diversity," 24-year-old Nina Davuluri said in her first press conference, moments after winning the crown in Atlantic City. "I'm thankful there are children watching at home who can finally relate to a new Miss America."
