It is Miss California USA pageant weekend and one of the highlights is the parade of swimsuits. A total of 133 contestants took center stage in Rancho Mirage, California during the weekend of November 20-22, 2009 to compete in the preliminary swimsuit competition.
The goal of these gorgeous contestants was to impress the panel of judges who crowned Miss California USA 2010 on Sunday evening.
Rumor had it that the judges planned to pick two winners after the problems they have had in the past two competitions, where the first runner-up picks stepped in after the 2008 winner Christina Silva was disqualified and the 2009 winner Carrie Prejean was fired. That turned out to be false.
Winning the title Miss California USA 2010 was Miss Sherwood Nicole Johnson. First runner-up was Miss Beverly Hills Nana Meriwether. Second runner-up was Miss Citrus Valley Nia Sanchez. Third runner-up was Miss Greater San Diego Jessica Morgan. Fourth runner-up was Miss Tarzana Brandi Lea Milloy. See their photos below.
