Brittany Ryan Swann (born December 25, 1983) is a beauty queen from Tyrone, Georgia who competed in the Miss USA pageant in 2007.

Swann won the Miss Georgia USA 2007 title in a state pageant held in Newnan, Georgia on 11 November 2006.[1] She competed as Miss Peachtree City in the pageant. This was her second attempt at the title, as she had placed third runner-up to Lisa Wilson of Atlanta in 2006.[2] Wilson placed second runner-up in the Miss USA 2006 pageant held in April 2006. In 2002, Swann competed in the Miss Tennessee Teen USA 2002 pageant and placed second runner-up to Rachel Smith. One month prior to Swann winning her title, Smith won the Miss Tennessee USA 2007 title, and thus both will competed against each other at the Miss USA 2007 pageant. Swann and Smith have the same directors, Greenwood productions, which produces the Tennessee and Georgia state pageants.

Swann represented Georgia in the nationally televised Miss USA 2007 pageant which was broadcast live from the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California on March 23, 2007. Throughout her reign she will work with various charities and make appearances throughout Georgia, such as appearance in the first annual Tyrone Christmas Parade.[3] Her sister titleholder is Jena Sims, Miss Georgia Teen USA 2007.[4]

Swann graduated from Cookeville High School in 2002 and is a marketing and management major at Georgia State University. She hopes to attain an MBA in the future.[5] Her goal is to work in the entertainment or fashion industries.[5]
