Miss Nebraska, Sarah Rose Summers, was crowned Miss USA 2018 Monday night at the Hirsch Memorial Coliseum in Shreveport-Bossier, Louisiana.
Summers graduated from Texas Christian University and went on to become a certified child life specialist.
Hosted by husband and wife Nick Lachey and Vanessa Lachey, the live televised event featured plenty of cat walks, formal wear, tough Q&As and surprise performances.
This year's selection committee was comprised of all female entrepreneurs, business leaders and industry experts—including former Miss USA contestants. Members included Today show contributor Lilliana Vazquez, HLN host Natasha Curry and founder/CEO of IT Cosmetics Jamie Kern Lima.
