00:00Addie, walk me through the last 48 hours since being crowned Miss Teen USA.

00:07What's going through your mind?

00:08It has been such a whirlwind and honestly just a dream come true.

00:11I've been staying super busy with press interviews and photo shoots, all of the glitz and glam,

00:16but also just enjoying this moment.

00:17I mean, it's not very often that somebody gets to experience something like this.

00:22Speaking of press, Miss Teen USA has been in the news a lot lately, as I'm sure you're

00:26aware of.

00:27What type of positive press do you hope to give the pageant now that the crown is on

00:30your head?

00:31You know, I really want to focus on being a Miss Teen USA who is leaving an impact and

00:35changing people's lives.

00:37It's something that I shared with the judges during my private interview as well as on

00:40stage and I think that's going to be such a big part of my role in this title this year

00:45and I'm ready to get to work with my personal organization, Dance to Empower, as well as

00:49the other charitable alliances that we're partnered with, with the Miss USA organization,

00:53which are Smile Train and Best Buddies.

00:56This was the first time in a long time that Miss Teen USA was on network television, coming

01:01back to the CW.

01:02Tell us what the relevance of Miss Teen USA is like now in 2024.

01:06You know, it's important for Miss Teen USA and Miss USA to be in these roles right now

01:10because so many little girls need people like us to look up to and I'm so excited to use

01:16this title to be a voice for little girls just like me.

01:18I'm from a small town in Mississippi.

01:20I never in a million years would have thought that I'd be capable of winning Miss Teen USA,

01:25so making this dream possible I hope is a message for everyone out there to just never

01:29stop dreaming and to always set goals for your dreams and one day if you work hard enough

01:33you can achieve it.

01:35One last question for you.

01:36Tonight you're going to be getting a new sister queen, a new Miss USA will be crowned.

01:41What advice do you have for the contestants who are sitting backstage right now?

01:44You know what that's like.

01:45Give them a little bit of a positive, uplifting message.

01:48Yes, so I definitely know exactly what it feels like to be back there feeling all of

01:52the nerves, but something that I always tell anyone is just to live in the moment and never

01:56take anything for granted.

01:58This is such a once in a lifetime opportunity, not winning but just competing here.

02:01I mean we've all worked so hard to win in our respective states, so I just know whoever

02:06wins is going to be so deserving and I'm so excited to meet her.

02:09The beautiful Addie Carver, the newly crowned Miss Teen USA.

02:12Congratulations once again.

02:14Thank you so much.
