If you're living in the United States, you probably watched Miss Teen USA, a contest that presented the beauties from the entire country. Well, it showed even more than that because Miss Teen South Carolina caused a funny moment after she had to answer a question of the competition. If you didn't see it, let me tell you about it: being asked why the Americans can't locate the United States on a map, the potential winner of Miss Teen USA offered a funny answer that attracted millions of views for the online video sharing services. YouTube is one of the products which won considerable traffic because a clip posted on its page recorded 823.323 views, 2285 views and was rated as favorite for 1024 times.

The clip is posted in several versions and all of them recorded an impressive number of views from the YouTube community. There's even a flavor with subtitles that allows you to read the 'uh' and the "I believe that' said by the Miss South Carolina easier.

In an interview with The State, Lauren Caitlin Upton said that she wasn't expecting the question and she didn't understand it. "I didn't do anything wrong. I wasn't expecting (the question). I lost my train of thought. I just want people to know that I'm an average teenage girl, living life to the fullest, learning from my mistakes and living life in a positive way, and that is all I can ask for," the Miss Teen South Carolina said.

As you can see, it's not quite a good idea to embarrass yourself at the national television because the viewers are always waiting for your mistake. Moreover, you can become even more popular after the clip is published on the Internet, YouTube being the first place to host all those funny videos. A few days ago, Beyonce and her exposed chest brought an impressive audience to YouTube.
