A transgender woman has earned the title of Miss Nevada USA for the first time in the pageant’s history, according to reports.
"Huge thank you to everyone who supported me from day one," Enriquez wrote on Instagram Monday. "My community, you are always in my heart. My win is our win. We just made history. Happy pride." The 27-year-old is slated to be the first openly transgender woman to compete for the title of Miss USA, according to CNN. If Enriquez wins, the outlet reported that she would be the second trans woman to compete in the Miss Universe pageant after Spain's Angela Ponce in 2018.More Related News
