Kristina Higgins resigned as Miss Georgia 2009 Sunday. She gave up the job less than 24 hours after being crowned late Saturday night. Higgins was Miss Capital City at the time of her resignation. First runner-up Emily Cook, Miss Cobb County, will now represent Georgia at the 2010 Miss America Pageant. Here are a few select stories on the continuing saga after the 2009 Miss Georgia Pageant.A second Miss Georgia has been crowned in two days. One day after winning the title Saturday night at the annual pageant in Columbus, Gwinnett County school teacher Kristina Higgins relinquished the post, now filled by the runnerup, Emily Cook, a Marietta law student.
Higgins said she stepped down because her responsibilities as a middle school would not leave her time she would need to serve as Miss Georgia. I guess she was just so into proving she could win, she decided to inconvenience everybody else along the way. Dunno. Odd.
That isn't Kristina Higgins. That is Rachel Surls, the 2007-2008 Miss Mall of Georgia Outstanding Teen.
