The 2012 MISS USA® Competition will air LIVE on NBC Sunday, June 3 (9 p.m. ET) from Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas at the Theatre for the Performing Arts. (Contestants from Hawai’i, Louisiana, Georgia and Virginia pictured below).

Returning from last year will be hosts Andy Cohen, host of Bravo’s “Watch What Happens: Live” and Giuliana Rancic, co-anchor of “E! News,” will host the competition. Paula Shugart, President of the Miss Universe Organization said “Not only will we have the hottest show on the strip the night of June 3, but we are excited to welcome back Andy Cohen and Giuliana Rancic as hosts. Andy and Giuliana’s charisma and energy are a great fit for us, and it was obvious they had a lot of fun together at Miss USA last year. We are happy to have them back.”

While there is no word yet on performers or judges of the 2012 Miss USA Pageant. The swimsuit sponsor for this year’s event will be Australian brand Kooey. The luxury swimwear brand has long been a sponsor of the Miss Universe Australia pageant and most recently been a sponsor for the Miss Teen USA 2011 pageant. At the helm of Kooey are design team, Nikki Silverthorne and Charlene Harmer. 
Alyssa Campanella of California, will be handing over the reigns of Miss USA to one of the 51 beautiful contestants vying to be Miss USA 2012. The winner, like Campanella will be granted tremendous opportunities, aid in support of great causes, given wonderful prizes, and the chance to represent USA in the Miss Universe pageant.
The Miss USA Pageant has long been a ratings knockout. Last year, the 2011 MISS USA® Competition on NBC was the #1 show of the night for all key demographics. Good luck to all the contestants vying for the crown!
