Miss America is an annual competition that is open to women from the United States between the ages of 18 and 28.[1] Originating in 1921 as a "bathing beauty revue",[2] the contest is judged on competition segments with scoring percentages: Private Interview (30%) – a 10-minute press conference-style interview with a panel of judges, On Stage Question (10%) – answering a judge's question onstage, Talent or HER Story (20%) – a performance talent or 90 second speech, Health and Fitness (20%) – demonstrated physical fitness onstage dressed in athletic wear, and Evening Gown (20%) – modeling evening-wear onstage.[3][4][5]
The previous year's titleholder crowns the winner. Miss America 2024 is Madison Marsh of Colorado, who was crowned on January 14, 2024. She will crown her successor at Miss America 2025.
