Miss Missouri set for Vegas

MU student seeking Miss America crown.

Katie Ferrell hopes the judges and America look beyond the makeup and high heels next month to see the Sarah French she knows - a "fun, normal, down-to-earth girl."

"When I first met her, I thought she was an alien," admitted Ferrell, a senior at the University of Missouri-Columbia. "I was like, ‘She can’t be normal. She’s superhuman, so beautiful.’ Then you get to know her; she’s the nicest human being on the face of the planet."

French, 21, will represent Missouri when Country Music Television hosts the 86th annual Miss America pageant on Jan. 29 in Las Vegas. She leaves for Nevada on Jan. 19 to spend a week rehearsing for the live televised pageant.

Until then, the MU broadcast journalism student-turned-Miss Missouri is balancing family time, scheduled appearances and last-minute preparations.
