Watchful Eyes Miss USA 2015 Pre-Arrival Picks

         The 64th Miss USA 2015 will be returning to the red stick and bring back the festive mood back to the Baton Rouge, Louisiana where it will be held on July 12. Fifty-one (51) contestants representing the 50 states and the District of Columbia will battle it out for the crown of Miss USA 2015 and to represent the United States at the Miss Universe 2015 at a venue and specific date to be announced by the Miss Universe Organization.
