Here's another very successful state in the Miss USA system...producing two Miss USA's and placed 27 times. They made the semi finals 7 times out of the last 10 years. Can this year's contestant Tucker Perry continues the streak?
Tucker is currently a student at Belmont University in Nashville, TN majoring in Commercial Music – Voice Performance. She is immersed daily in a rigorous schedule of voice lessons, music theory, and performance classes among her general education classes.
She's 22 years old and a resident of Franklin. She was 4th Runner Up two years in a row in the state 'miss' level and placed 3rd Runner Up in the 'teen' level.
