Replay Video UP NEXT I started out as the COVID queen that was my nickname but then it slowly transitioned into being this really sweet year of what I d always envisioned my year of being Miss Louisiana as, said Courtney Hammons.
She started her reign as Miss Louisiana 2020 last summer. While she d had the desire to hold the title for years, she did not get the title in a way anyone could have envisioned at the last pageant in 2019.
Pre-pandemic, about 30 young women flocked to Monroe each year for a weeklong job interview that leads to another week of competition to be the next Miss America.
