Watching this made me cry. I never met Chelsi in person but as a pageant fan, we corresponded on social media. She truly was beautiful inside as well as out. I really admired and respected her sense of determination. Thanks to her frankness, I read a book she recommended called, The Magic Of Thinking Big. It helped her win all her pageants. The book is definitely a great self help book. I read it and it has helped me get almost every job I have ever had in my professional life. We joked about being August babies and would keep up with our lives on social media. I mainly remember her wit and sense of humor. More importantly her spirit and her love of the LGBT community in Houston. She will always be remembered and missed. Te queremos Chelsi. ❤️
Thank you Tom for uploading this video. Chelsi is one of my favorite Miss Universe winners and it saddens me that she is gone. BTW, I love your website and have been reading for many years now!
This montage was excellent, a great example for anyone on how to carry yourself with grace, humor, and intelligence. Watch her Jon Stewart Show interview at 27:29 and you truly see she was sharp, fun loving, and a great listener with a fantastic laugh. Rest in Peace, Chelsi..
Not only beautiful but also very nice! I met you in Las Vegas during the Miss Universe pageant 1996,I asked if we could take a picture together and you didn't hesitate!You even put your hands around my shoulder and you were so polite!I know that you had a hard life after your reign but I will never forget that beautiful soul! RIP my Queen Chelsi.
Can we just talk about the jackpot of prizes Chelsi won along with the crowns. She could’ve put 5 kids through college with all the prize packages she collected.
Chelsi Smith was a Beautiful Queen👸🏽 and Awesome Person inside & out. She was a True Miss Congeniality. Always stayed true to herself to then end. Chelsi was 1 of the Best Miss Universe Queens Ever! 😢RIP Queen Chelsi👑
Hello Tom...cool to hear you're a DJ (something I'm considering doing myself). I'm a big fan of Madonna & the Billboard charts, especially from the 80's when Casey Kasem was THE MAN!
Miss Universe 1994 Sushmita Sen was there to witness her crowning moments from Miss Texas USA to Miss USA all the way to Miss Universe 1995.
Every time this young lady appeared on stage she gave us a lesson in humility. RIP Chelsea
Chelsi Smith was without a doubt, a blessing that God wanted the world to contemplate and love.
