You might remember Nia Sanchez as the smoking hottie who won the Miss USA beauty pageant while representing the state of Nevada.
But now you’re probably going to remember her as the smoking hottie buffoon who didn’t know the capital of her home* state.
According to US Magazine, Sanchez was a guest on The Todd Show on 95.5 WPLJ in New York Monday morning and was asked to participate in a quick quiz about the pageant and the state of Nevada. But when the host asked her to name the capital of Nevada, Sanchez drew a blank.
“Oh, um, ah, oh my gosh,” Sanchez said as she stumbled through what should have been one of the easiest questions for a resident* of Nevada.
Luckily for Sanchez, the host put her out of her temporary misery and gave her the correct answer: Carson City.
“Thank you, I was going to say that!” Sanchez replied. “I was like, that one DJ host on MTV, back in the day, his name, that’s how I always remembered it. Carson Daly, that guy!”
*Sanchez’s victory tour has been anything but a parade since winning the crown on June 9. Almost immediately, accusations surfaced that she wasn’t even a resident of Nevada and that she competed for the title of Miss California from 2010 to 2012.
Regardless of what happens, Sanchez should be OK since she’s very hot.
