Nia Sanchez, the new Miss USA did an interview yesterday and didn't know the capital of Nevada, the state she represented in the Miss USA competition broadcasted live from Baton Rouge, LA.  Putting this into perspective, this would be like Louisianians not knowing Baton Rouge is our state capital.

This is really weird, especially since some people are claiming she faked her Nevada residency in order to become a contestant in the Miss USA competition.  Sanchez has only lived in Nevada since the fall of 2012.  Before Nevada, she lived in California where she tried to win Miss California three times.

The interview took place during 'The Todd Show' on WPLJ in New York.  By the way the capital of Nevada is Carson City.
