Miss California's broken shoe or maybe her overzealous loss of her sarong during swimsuit competition must have cost her title, Chelsea was a nice second runner up at best. She will be lucky to make Top 15 at 5'5 and plain

So sweet, so southern, shes absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!!!

she should not have even been in the top 15 let alone winning. no class, no personality. looks are just aweful. just looks old. i think the judges were paid. bottom line. no way she could have one otherwise. especially not over miss mississippi or miss maryland or miss new york. the usa will be embarrased for the next year.

Chelsea is one of the most grounded, sincere, honest and loving young women on the earth. I know first hand what an incredible person and representative she is and will be. The USA system couldn't have a better representative for the Miss Universe pageant. Bring that crown back to the U.S. Chelsea. Love, Clayton

Way to go Chelsea!!! Don't forget us little people back in the QC!!! I'll never forget our night at Verizon! :) We're so proud of you!!! Love, Stacy

She was dazzling, a true natural beauty, not some dumpling who was adept at doing makeup to hide her natural commoness. Great personality too. I knew she would win from the beginning. This one should have a realistic shot at Miss Universe.
