Thanks to her clumsiness, Miss USA Crystle Stewart, 27, lost her chance to win the Miss Universe title.

Stewart was the second consecutive USA representative to fall during the televised competition. Last year, Miss USA Rachel Smith, a Belmont University alum, fell during the evening wear segment, just like Stewart did. However, unlike Smith, Stewart did not make it into the top 5. Unfortunately for Smith though, her blunder was featured on YouTube for millions to view over and over again.

Stewart, a Texas native, graduated from the University of Houston with a degree in consumer science and merchandising. Clearly, a career in retail would be better suited for her.

Despite her embarrassing moment, Stewart has managed to remain poised. She is currently working on a book called “Waiting to Win.” There is no word on what the book is about but I’m pretty sure people can guess. Stewart also plans on opening a character-development school for young children.
