Christina Ortega, El Paso, went on to win Miss New Mexico USA 2000. Evelyn Ellis, Beaumont, was Miss Louisiana Teen USA 1992. Carissa Blair, Fort Bend County, was Miss Texas Teen USA 1992 and of course later the 1999 Miss Texas USA.
Unfortunately, This is the Last Miss Texas USA Pageant to have Pat Haggerty announcing this Telecast although he did doing it during the Guyrex Years since the 1983 Miss Texas USA Pageant until the 1991 Contest when the Miss Universe Organization decided to kick Guyrex off the Organization before doing it again with the 1996 Miss Texas USA Pageant.
This was Elizabeth Sturgeon's third and final attempt at the title; she placed first runner-up to Kara Williams two years before (at 18). She was only 20 here, I wonder why she decided not to come back. Maybe she got married. Staci Outhouse's final attempt was the following year, also after finishing as 1st runner-up for the second time in three years.

I like that song that blonde woman is singing in the beginning.
The second RuPaul song used for a Miss Texas USA opening number in the 1990s. Love it!
Not a very diverse field BUT the ladies the made top 12 are stunning...there was not beating Holly that night.
9:48 Eva Longoria of Desperate Housewives fame
She competed at least twice as far as I know.
I would've picked Miss Harris County
Yes...it was a tough decision IMHO.

@@acotbc I really liked Staci, wish she had won. Also Mandy Jeffries and Candace Campfield tried multiple times, came close but never won.
