2019 was a record breaking year: All three titles Miss USA, Miss Teen USA and Miss America were held by black women. And today Festus is talking to Miss Teen USA, Kaliegh Garris, who won the title while famously rocking her beautiful, natural curls on stage.
The conversation dives into the world of pageantry as Kaliegh debunks some myths and misconceptions about what the competitions are like.
The episode also gets more deep and personal, as Kaliegh opens up about the sexual abuse she experiences at a young age and how she coped with it. On top of that she shares her thoughts on the pressure of social media, her experiences in the modeling industry and her perspective on confidence and self love.
You can follow Kaliegh on her Instagram.
