With new innovations along the way, this year marked the birth of the super fast Parade of Nations as each delegate merely shouted out her name and her country. During her morning-after interview, Shawn Weatherly, the 5th American to win Miss Universe, said, “My job is not the exhibition of my body. Talking with people and making friends in all nations is my main duty.” Her ambitions then at the time of her reign were to become a sports commentator after her graduation
from Clemson University with a communications degree. But fate went
the other way and Shawn went on to become a popular television actress.
