Miss USA 1990 was a time of break through. Carole Gist was it!! She was the Miss Universe 1990 in my opinion. The elegance, and class at the time was a big thing in pageants unlike today. Carole will always be remembered as the first Black Miss USA.
Miss USA 1962 of Hawaii is the FIRST black Miss USA
@@luigicono2622 no she wasn't
They did an excellent job, Carol the winner of Miss USA, placed as first runner up in miss Universe 1990 and then Gina Tolleson first runner up in Miss USA 1990 went on to be crowned Miss World 1990. Congratulations
They didn’t even recognize Gina’s achievements at MU 1991 which I think lead to MW not renewing the franchise for 1992.
@PungiFungi I'm a pageant need could you please explain in more detail Gina was not in the Miss Universe pageant but she represented America at Miss World and won I know that was the protocol for a few yrs runnerup went to Miss World was there a franchise connection between MU and MW?
Gina viajo a Londres y fue elegida Miss World 1990 ....valió la pena ....
Le robaron la coronó para el MU ..... pero se trajo la diadema de brillantes y la banda de Miss World ...... valió la pena ....
She was the first black woman to win the crown. She broke the 5 year win streak of Texas.
I just remember how gorgeous Carole Gist was that night! An amazing winner and she broke down so many barriers!
Gina was a beautiful Miss World 1990
Nearly forgot about this incredible moment!! Carole graduated from Detroit Cass Tech like Miss U.S.A 1993 Kenya Moore did!! I was just at a friends house who graduated Cass Tech in '89 and asked him who the names were of the TWO Cass Tech alumni who were Miss. U.S.A and he could only remember Kenya in '93,and asserted there was only one lady from Cass who won this title,but I KNEW there were two,because I was jealous that Detroit Chadsey never had ONE alumni,hold this grand title,but had forgotten the exact name!! So,I looked in my"Detroit Almanac"I bought in 2001,and saw it was Carole Gist,and I had to come here and SEE the actual moment that I did remember brought me to tears that a hometown lady won!! Man,is Carole GORGEOUS!!
What a terrific choice! Carole is gorgeous!
She definitely is one of my favorite winners for MIss USA, and let me tell you, this women looks just as good now as she did then. She's now married with the name Carole Gist Strammler. You can look her up by name. It also was about time that the color of ones skin no longer matter, as it should have always been.
I was a freshman in college 1990 watching this in my room.
The first black Miss USA!!!!!!!
Carol is freaking gorgeous and a very deserving winner.
This is one of my favorite Miss USA pageants, too bad they aren't like this today.
So much class. 1989 and 1990 were my absolute faves (telecast), and the winners.
The first African-American to win the Miss USA title!!! Michigan produced the first two African-American women to wear the crown. The other was Kenya Moore who is now on The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
Carole ended the Miss Texas winning streak. I remember how much my family and I cheered her on that night! Gist said that she would have gone alot further if she had succumbed to the "casting couch" when when she moved to LA to pursue an acting career. Instead, now she works as a very successful Personal Fitness Trainer and Nutritionist in Surburban Detroit
@Lorna Colon Miss USA! Rewatch the video!
And once again Michigan produced the first Arab miss USA with Rima
@Bryan Edney;more accurately Detroit Cass Technical High produced the first two African American women to wear this crown!! Here in Detroit,it was common-knowledge that Cass Tech had the FINEST girls in the whole city,and producing TWO Miss U.S.A ladies prooves it!! I remembered I CRIED when Carole won and began crying!!
@@khalilm3412 and Michigan joined Minnesota, DC, and New York in having the dubious honor of having a Miss USA not making the cut at Miss Universe.
Terrific
Some of the comments are absolutely asinine, this is a video of a young black woman making history in the Miss USA pageant and there should be nothing but positive comments on this video, but not only do I blame the idiots that post such things as "why does Carole's dress look like a vagina", but I blame UA-cam for not having a better filter, you people need to grow up and have respect for others.
Douglas Green I hadnt noticed it before! But you are absolutely right! Bitch dressed up as a fucking vulva
@@bobkuusela3273 All that because a black woman won? Stop being so sad and "so gay". 😔
Andre Suston I’ll keep on being gay till the day I die. Nothing wrong with that. What’s wrong is for this bitch to go on national TV wearing a vag costume.
Gina,went on to win Miss World.:)
There were 2 guys who used to train/prep the winners of Miss Texas for their state titles. Their business was called Guy/Rex, a combo of their first names. They're the ones who taught them everything about how to win. Long ago, Hispanic countries trained their winners over the long run. You probably noticed how they pose the same; walk the same; well, that's from training. (This information was given on a national program). And now other countries are catching on and becoming more competitive.
Carole's evening gown for Miss USA was a Sherri Hill design and her gown for Miss Universe was a Bob Mackie original that cost the pageant $10,000.
Gina Marie Tolleson was Miss World 1990, and Carole Giest was 1st. runner up in Miss Universe 1990
miss south carolina win miss world 1990
Carol is the clear winner here but she finished runner up in miss universe 1990. Gina was runner up here but won miss world 1990
History made.
Simply beautiful!
I remember watching Miss USA 1993 when Kenya Moore won. I really thought Kelly Hu from Hawaii was the most beautiful and intelligent girl that year.
Michael 83201 Kelly was. I think she could’ve won Miss Universe had she won Miss USA. Such a pity
Kelly Hu was leading right up to being given an unfortunate question by one of the judges. It had to do with women going into combat; and should they? Kelly was absolutely sure they should go, and even mentioned "body bags". We felt that was when she lost the title.
she did win Miss World several months later.
WELL MISS SOUTH CAROLINA WENT TO THE MISS WORLD AND SHE WON MISS WORLD 1990 MICHIGAN WENT TO MISS UNIVERSE AND WAS 1ST RUNNER UP
1st Runner Up won Miss World 1990...
327 728 yes! This was a very strong top 2! Carole almost won Miss Universe 1990!
@@lilytsui3015
It's divine intervention. Had Carole won Miss universe, Gina would automatically become Miss USA and ineligible to compete in Miss World
Not only did she support her lawsuit, but she filed a lawsuit as well using the same attorney. They both settled with the pageant later on in 1991.
Miss south carolina crowned MIss world 1990 later that year!❤❤❤❤❤
Both did good in Miss Universe and Miss world
I thought Carol was beautiful. I remember when she won...she came to my town and she was SO tall. I could not believe how tall she was. She looked absolutely regal.
Merecio ganar Gina .. pero se hizo justicia en los meses siguientes al ser elegida MISS WORLD 1990 .... No hay mal
... Qué por bien no venga ..
@autohaus- I don't think the woman giving up her crown looked mad at all. She seemed genuinely happy for Carol. In fact, when Carol filed suit against the pageant, the 1989 winner supported her wholeheartedly.
Jayne Kennedy was also a semi finalists in 1970 appearing as Jane Harrison
Beautiful Queen.
This was a good year to US. Miss USA was 1st runner-up at MU 1990 and 1st runner-up at Miss USA was Miss World 1990.
No more.
So Miss USA was sending 1st RU to Miss World at that time?
@@rutikgaikwad6717 yes the 1st runner up of miss usa was their delegate to miss world until 1998. in this year South Carolina was sent in miss world and won miss world 1990
With all the beautiful black women over the years, Carole, as well as Janelle Commissiong, are sometimes forgotten.
So what would have happened if Carole had became Miss Universe? Would Gina have held BOTH the Miss World and Miss USA titles SIMULTANEOUSLY? 🤔🤔🤔
Since Gina became Miss World, they both have their own international pageants to fulfill their duties of. Hence, 2nd runner-up would've taken over
Had Carole won Miss Universe, Gina would’ve become Miss USA like Dick Clark stated. That would have sent the second runner up, Miss New Jersey-USA, Karen Harts, to Miss World.
@@hievey1369 that came AWFULLY CLOSE to happening! To date this is the closest that the USA has become to winning multiple BIG 4 pageants in the same year!
I would say either Carole or Gina would do well in international pageants.
Should Carole won Miss universe, Gina would become Miss USA and would not be able to compete in Miss world (held later in November 1990). It's destiny,I guess
Dick Clark was the best host ever. RIP
Carole Gist was actually the first African American woman to win the title of miss usa, and the first African American woman from Detroit Michigan to win as well. Not Kenya Moore who claims to be a part of "history". If anyone is a part of history it's Carole Gist, but unfortunately she doesn't get the recognition she deserves
To be fair, Carole is ugly. no pun intended. i cant believe she won. Kenya is way prettier and she did deserve that title.. i guess like everything entitlements gets priority.
MrMjbf yes you are right. I saw both pageants and am now a local Miss America director.
Kenya is the second african american woman who win miss usa after carole gist!
@@pyrotalk opinions are not about being fair or fact, its just an opinion. Learn the difference.
And this is the year the 5-year streak for Texas was broken..
Agent - Yelp!! And Texas has not been dominant since.
With that civil war dress, any progress would’ve been stop
@MrTops2100 Surprisingly, Georgia has never had a Miss USA. The closest that they came was in 1993 with Erin Nance who was first runner up to Kenya Moore, also from Michigan and a friend and classmate of Carole Gist. The first runner up here, Miss South Carolina, went on to win Miss World later that same year.
@kendrix62
The first runner-up for Miss USA during 1981-1991 represented the USA in the Miss World pageant.
If you think about it the fact that you think Gretchen was better than Carole had nothing to do with how they placed at Miss Universe. If Gretchen had competed in 1990 or Carole had gone in 1989 who is to say that they would have done as well as the other did?! They both did well and were great reps of the USA.
You're referring to the Miss 1992 World America Pageant, which ran nationally once. Sharon Belden (Miss Florida USA 1992 as well) won that title. Karin Meyer from Alaska, who was in the top 6 here, was first runner-up at that pageant.
I remember watching that and recently found it here on youtube. All the pageants from the late 80s til about 93-94 were the absolute best.
71st miss Universe (1hr:39min) brought me here
Carole was one of my fave MUSA's
Gina Tolleson ❤️
@amindr Now they travel alot together, but back then Miss USA and Miss Universe had for the most part entirely different travelling schedules. Miss USA from 1984 to 1991 was under contract with the JC Penney company and spent 100 days out of her reign making appearances @ stores all across the USA in return for her prizes from them. Also, she made appearances on behalf of P&G. Miss Universe did make appearances for P&G, but for the most part they had two separate schedules.
Both Miss USA 1990 Carol Gist and her first runner up Gina Tolleson are very tall women, they are both 6ft tall, so until Nana Meriwether the 2012 titleholder, they each would have held the record of being the tallest MISS USA winner ever, between them had either of them won. Is Gina the tallest Miss World winner ever?
No, the tallest Miss world winner is Julia Kourochkina Miss World 1992, she's 6'2" without shoes. Another is Zhang Zilin Miss World 2007 shes around 6 feet tall without high heels
@picpurrfic Thank you! I always thought that Halle should have won over Christy. And a year later, Miss Florida-USA 1987, Chloe Cabrera should have triumphed over Michelle Royer. I thought and still think that Michelle was way overrated. Her sash carried her to 2nd runner up at Miss Universe.
Yes she is indeed
s.carolina was miss world 1990
It really was destiny for Miss South Carolina to go on to win Miss World 1990.
@@alexsdb9712 add the fact that should carole won miss universe, gina would be miss usa and ineligible to compete in miss world
@ Paconot _ Carole finished 2nd in the first interview portion. As the field was narrowed down to 5, she stumbled a bit (not because of grammar), but not enough to miss making the top three. She nailed the final question and sealed her fate. Since u are the grammar queen/king, she did incorrectly say "...each of us HAVE..." instead of each of us has, a mistake most people make, esp. under pressure.
So happy Carol Gist won. She was my favorite and I loved her dress. I do think Miss Alaska was either snobby or just focused but she didn't even thank the poor soldier who helped her down the steps. Does anyone know what ever happened to Miss Alaska? What is she doing now?
I want this pageant be uploaded from a local TV station. The start of the pageant where Miss Michigan USA pageant director Melissa Proctor-Pitchford in the running until elimination and the rest of the pageant from the then CBS affiliate from Detroit WJBK. This pageant will have commercials included and segments the first half from WCPO 9 (now ABC, was CBS until 1996) and the second half from WJBK (now Fox, was CBS until 1994).
@1teedie I also think that, because the night of Miss Universe 1990 she brought as a star, so georgous and stunning, but just one think:: she did'nt answer exactly what she was asked in the final question and Norway did it, so she won MIss Univese pageant 1990 and USA first runner up.
Awwwwe it came so close for USA to take out the Ms World and Ms Universe crowns - guess S. Carolina winning Ms World 1990 and Ms USA 1st runner up at Ms Universe was not too bad, though I thought Carole did better than Mona Grudt at MU, but anyways.....lol.
Reps Taia Well, if Caroline won Miss Universe, Gina won’t win Miss World but instead, take over as Miss USA.
Bitch bye
Also 1973 USA won Miss world and first runner up Miss universe.
what is the ending song ??? i love it !!!!
Right in the Middle
well miss usa was frist runner up thats pretty good, also miss usa and miss universe are together most places miss universe goes to so does miss usa, so she didnt miss out.
Dang, was Dick Clark on speed when he announced this part of the show?!
They were running out of time and they only have two hours, unlike the three hour show we have today that just drag things out. In fact, more happened in two hours back then than what they have in three hours today.
1 RU is Miss world 1990
miss usa is 1 ru Miss Universe 1990
should carole won miss universe, gina would be miss usa and ineligible to compete in miss world. what a destiny
According to you..Carol was/is gorgeous and EXTREMELY INTELLIGENT.
@Jay King;to graduate Detroit Cass Technical High,she HAD to be intelligent!!
the first runner up i think compete in Miss World 1990?.. am i correct or the first runner up during Miss USA 1989.?
Carole won Miss USA and became 1st runner up in Miss Universe
Gina became first runner up here but later won Miss world
I would say either Carole or Gina would do well in international pageants. Should Carole won Miss universe, Gina would become Miss USA and would not be able to compete in Miss world. It's destiny,I guess
@@taroupriapus9760that's exactly i want to know.. thanks for the info. 👍
obviously Gina was the deserving winner. But it wasn't her fate to win Miss USA. She went on to win Miss World.
Carole do not get the credit she deserves. Everybody is talking about Kenya Moore in 1993 like SHE was the first. No, Carole was the one who was the pioneer.
Carol was gorgeous. Where is she now?
Still gorgeous! She's on Facebook! 💙
Miss South Carolina just knew she won! lol #sike
Is Gina Tolleson wearing the same gown she used in Miss World?
Yes, ua-cam.com/video/3jwhpyLUhQ4/v-deo.html
Carole Gist one of my favorite Miss USA ever
the same like Chelsi Smith
wonderfull coloured woman....
I have never heard anyone criticize Carole, who has some Cherokee in her, for being too light or not being black enough. As far as Vanessa, she was criticized mostly for seemingly distancing herself from the black community and for having a white boyfriend. When the scandal broke, the black community supported her, while her boyfriend dumped her.

I believe you are confusing Miss South Carolina with Miss North Carolina USA--Tess Elliott (sp).
BEAULAH COOLEY OF DETROIT MADE HER GOWNS FOR USA UNIVERSE & SHE ALSO MADE CAROLS WEDDING GOWN.I WAS 10 AT THE TIME & MS COOLEY WAS MAKING A EVENING ENSAM FOR MY MOM & MY MOM WAS EARLY FOR A FITTING AND CAROL WAS BEING FITTED FOR HER GOWN & SHE WAS SO NERVOUS MY TOLD HER YOU'RE GOING TO WIN & SHE DID
@TCall2004 Why?! If you saw what Texas did with their winners before they became Miss USA ,you would see how they did it. Miss Tx-USA did at the state level what Miss USA did at the national and Miss Universe on a global level. Too bad the level of all of the pageants has gone down.
bella!
She should be the miss universe 1990 not norway...
isagani leyesa bitch pliz
@@bobkuusela3273 stfu.. miss usa was robbed of the miss universe crown, when they gave it to the dracula bride.
It would have been something else if she had become Miss Universe because Gina Tolleson became Miss World.
No, she was lucky to finish 1st rup facing the world. But miss universe being held in the United States was a boost. Carol did a fine job and was a good miss usa.
Carole was lucky that they expanded the number of finalists to 6 instead of the usual 5 at Miss Universe. Otherwise she would’ve been just a semi-finalist.
she looks a lot like nana merriweather miss USA 2012.
The first Afro Anerican Winer Miss Usa..
She did not placed at Miss Universe 1989 😢
???? She is the First runner UP in 1990
you confused with Kimberly Presler miss usa 1999

Okay so I was just over at the Kenya Moore crowning and is it me or do they just throw these crowns on their heads so willy-nilly like that so disrespectful
Loool 😂😂😂😂
Sucks to be the Miss Texas here to break the streak.
Chelsi Smith was the best
Kenya Moore who??
LoL 👍
Lmao she never was the first
@Shy maury;Kenya Moore Miss U.S.A 1993 from the West side of Detroit,like myself!!
South Carolina is beautier than Michigan, later South Carolina become Miss World 1990??
That's your opinion. They are both beautiful women. It really came down to their answers.

Carole Gist was for me the true Miss Universe 1990
and not Mona Grudt!!!!
I don't understand how there could win such an ugly and so vulgar woman.
But for something the things happen: some months later the first runner-up, Gina Marie Tolleson (South Carolina) won the Miss World's title in London, U.K.
WTF?
CLIO musa what the HELL are YOU talking about. What a RACIST and BIGOTED comment to make!😡😡
CLIO musa I believe something is terribly WRONG with you!😡😡
I think CLIO musa is referring to Kenya Moore, the reality show personality, not Carole GIst.
Clayton Coy - How the hell could she confuse Carole with Kenya?? Did their both being from Michigan do it???. She knew what she was saying.
