Miss Chinatown USA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Miss Chinatown USA pageant, based on Chinese communities within the U.S., greets delegates around the country. The pageant has been held for over 48 years with the first pageant being conducted in 1958. The winners of this pageant represent the Chinese community and act as ambassadors promoting Chinese culture and heritage. Though crowned as Miss Chinatown USA, the delegates speak in English for the competition. Starting in 1999, Miss Chinatown USA sent its first representative to the annual Miss Chinese International pageant in Hong Kong.
