It’s no surprise that guys AND girls love Star Wars, but this might be the first time a Miss America waves her geek flag in the press.
The new reigning Miss USA Alyssa Campanella, who would make one heck of a Mara Jade, said she grew up watching Star Wars, loves to watch Game of Thrones, enjoys learning about space exploration and thinks of herself as a history geek.

This hot chick is a Star Wars Geek! That is too hard to believe.
She would make one heck of a Mars Jade. That’s a hint george
She does make up a good mara jade.
She looks a little like Padme Amidala. Actually that’s the line I would use to hit on her.
There should never be a Mara Jade!!! Luke can’t marry! Look at Anakin and how he turned out! I will go on believing that Mara Jade never existed. Which she didn’t so YAY!!. I would be crushed if George made another movie. REALLY REALLY CRUSHED!!!
She is rly pretty though.
She could have a role in a new Star Wars Clone Wars episode in Season 4 like the new elected Queen of Naboo in Episode III.Maybe?
can she act? if so, she should be mara jade in a live action tv series
She would totally make a PERFECT Mara!!!!!! NOW I WANT A NEW JEDI ORDER TV SHOW!!!! She’s my favorite Miss America so far, btw.
Mara Jade: Miss America FTW!!!
MARA JADE!!!
well of COURSE girls like star wars! where would star wars be without padme, aayla secura( i think thats how you spell it), ahsoka, ventress, leia, or any other important girls?!
Not that hard to believe…
She wears her SW geekness proudly. As we all do.
I would have never thought she was a star wars fan.
So proud of her
