Miss Tennessee USA and Teen USA Titleholder History
Tennessee has competed in every single Miss USA pageant except 1953. From the early 1960s until the end of the 1970s the title was styled “Miss Tennessee Universe”, a common practice at the time. In the early years there was a strong connection to Memphis, with the majority titleholders coming from the city and its suburbs. In recent years there has been a power shift to the Nashville area – Miss Tennessee USA 1992 Natalie Bray is the most recent Miss titleholder from Memphis. There were no Miss Tennessee Teen USA titleholders from Memphis from 1991 until Ansley Ecker in 2020, and there have now been three in a row from the Memphis suburbs!
1960s-1970s
