Episode #745 - Mekayla Diehl
When Mekayla Diehl appeared at the Miss USA pageant back in June, she was one of 10 women elimated from the swimsuit round, because some people tweeted that she was too curvy and didn't have the ultra-slim look of a beauty queen. This became a national controversy about body image for young women. Hear what Mekayla has to say about it all, and what her plans are for the future after her reign is over in November. You can find her on Facebook for more information.
