-->FORT WORTH — Shilah Phillips has been crowned Miss Texas and will be the first black woman to represent the Lone Star state in the Miss America pageant.
The 24-year-old Frisco woman won the title Saturday night.

Phillips' mother, Janie Nicol of Plano, said her daughter's victory came as no surprise to friends and relatives.
"We knew she had it in her, but we didn't know when the world was going to see it," Nicol said.
Phillips, an aspiring music student who auditioned unsuccessfully for the "American Idol" talent contest, said that loss would only work to her advantage on a Miss America pageant-centered reality television show, which will film contestants living together in a group setting.
"I'm very excited about it because I have reality TV experience," she said. "I was actually kicked off 'American Idol,' so I'm looking forward to Miss America."
Phillips won the Miss Texas title on her first try. She won the talent and swimsuit competitions during preliminaries last week. She performed a Whitney Houston song for the talent category.
The Miss America reality show will be broadcast on the CMT network in January before the pageant, and viewers will have the chance to vote for finalists.
Miss Woodlands Molly Hazlett was first runner-up in the Miss Texas pageant. Shea Yarborough, Miss Southlake, was second runner-up. Brooke Webster, Miss Houston, was chosen third runner-up and Heather Hodges, Miss Plano, was fourth runner-up.
Others in the top 10 were Miss Central Texas, Brooks Dennard; Miss Concho Valley, Madison Emert; Miss East Texas, Melissa Griffin; Miss Lufkin, Adrianna Nelson; and Miss Texarkana, Dawn Hughes.

You know how it is P, if they know you they like you. They think you are or at least have some of their views.
 
Miss Texas (USA) 1995 Chelsi Smith was black....or at least bi-racial but passing for black.

She went on to win Miss Universe.

No! You're not in the cliff so stop tryna' claim that, gul. :| U out there in Glen Heights. S-U-B-U-R-B. :D

Aside: Last time I did churech somewhere in the cliff (protection of church name is eminent :smh: ), this gulz skirt was so freaking short; she PURPOSELY dropped something in front of me and this other guy as we were chatting before entering the service; this heffa bent ova'.... ALL the way; nd we could C-L-E-A-R-L-Y see the RED thong as it went BETWIXT her vulva lips down thur w/ hairing around it and the whole nine. :confused: I did glance and shook my head while saying "lawd have mercy....." in disgust NOT lust. :shame: Even Preston looked and said something like he was <b>im</b>barrassed that I had to witness that @ his home church. :shame: Now, that's the "cliff" woman I'm used to seeing. :retard:
 



Don't they always say a woman can find a "good" man within the walls of the House of God?

Oh, and congrats and good luck to the new Miss Texas.

Do you think you've gotta' show your laffy-taffy to "find" this good man, gul? :confused:

I would think a good woman could find a good man... anywhere if she'd open her "good" eyes and see the man (or men) before her. :|

And vice versa.

But... crittah, I don't think men should be out tryna' "find" them a woman, good or bad. :confused: A man needs to "find" himself taking care of HIS business and getting HIMSELF together and if a good woman "finds" herself in his environment, then so be it.

My .02. :)
