Miss USA circus comes into town


Ravens linebacker Adalius Thomas reaches out to grab the flag of Miss South Carolina USA Lacie Lybrand during a scrimmage football game with some pageant contestants and some of the Ravens



The Miss USA pageant is calling Baltimore again, 2nd year running... and excitement is rising ...

"The judges are going to have a big job on their hands trying to figure out which one of these ladies is worthy of being Miss USA," said Dennis Castleman, assistant secretary for tourism, film and the arts, in Maryland's Department of Business Economic Development.

The pageant has also added a third emcee to the telecast. Carson Kressley, of Bravo's Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, will act as "color commentator" to the show's two hosts, Access Hollywood's Nancy O'Dell and Drew Lachey, of Dancing with the Stars fame.

Make sure you have enough Kleenex in.
