Miss USA 2015 Pageant - On July 12, 51 of America's most beautiful ladies will parade their stunning looks and charms at the 64th Miss USA Pageant in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Held at the Baton Rouge River Center, all fifty states and the District of Columbia will vie for the crown.

The Miss USA 2015 Pageant winner will be crowned by its former queen, Nia Sanchez of Nevada. The winner has one major responsibility, which is to represent the United States in the upcoming Miss Universe 2015 competition.

Throughout the Miss USA 2015 Pageant telecast, MSNBC's Thomas Roberts and NBC's Cheryl Burke will be hosting the event. While fashion correspondent Jennie Mai will give the viewers an exclusive backstage peek, PR Newswire revealed.

During the pageant, contestants from all 50 states and the District of Columbia will be judged in three categories, including: swimsuit, evening gown and interview. According to Zap2it, this year's competition will be the most interactive show to date with several different social and digital integrations for fans and viewers as they could be able to submit final question ideas through Instagram videos and Facebook posts, which will start on Friday, June 26.

On June 24, the Miss USA 2015 Pageant organizers have announced the musical lineup for the coronation night, which will be aired live Sunday, July 12 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC. As announced by NBC, Trump Pageants and Miss Universe Organization president Paula M. Shugart, Grammy Award-winning recording artist Flo Rida, vocalist Natalie La Rose and Texan-born country singer, multi-instrumentalist and "The Voice" Season 7 champion Craig Wayne Boyd will be all serenading the ladies and its viewers during the three-hour show.

Meanwhile, Miss USA 2015 Pageant won't just go on without any controversy. Latin Times reported that J Balvin, a Colombian singer who was set to appear at the coronation, opted to cancel his performance after pageant owner Donald Trump made offensive and racist comments about Latinos during his presidential candidacy announcement.  

"It was going to be my first performance on national [mainstream] television," Balvin told Billboard. "We're talking about our roots, our culture, our values. This isn't about being punitive, but about showing leadership through social responsibility."

"His comments weren't just about Mexicans, but about all Latins, in general," he added. "I'm no savior and I'm no Robin Hood, but, in this case, I feel totally comfortable and responsible with my decision."

For now, as 51 women from all over the country finalize their preparations in the hopes of becoming the Miss USA 2015 Pageant winner, who do you think will win the crown?
