The Miss Arizona USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state Arizona in the Miss USA pageant.
In 2005 the rights to produce the Miss Arizona USA pageant were given to Casting Crown Productions. This company is directed by Britt Boyse, Miss Missouri USA 1995.[1]
No Miss Arizona USA has won the Miss USA pageant, however Miss USA 1980 first runner-up Jineane Ford was awarded the Miss USA title after Shawn Weatherly won the Miss Universe pageant.
Three Miss Arizona USAs were former Miss Arizona Teen USAs and two were former Miss America contestants. The current titleholder is Nicole Smith from Phoenix.
