The Miss California Teen USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of California in the Miss Teen USA pageant. It was formed in 1983. This pageant is part of the Miss USA Organization.[ citation needed ]
California is in the top five most successful states at Miss Teen USA in terms of number and value of placements. Miss California Teen USA titleholders have been invited to red-carpet movie premieres, such as that for Santa Clause 3 attended by Kylee Lin, [1] and She's the Man , attended by Jessica Powell. [2]
The current titleholder is Paige Gonor of San Diego, who is crowned on June 23, 2024, at the Hyatt Regency Orange County. Gonor represented California for the title of Miss Teen USA 2024.
In the 1980s, the pageant was directed by Richard Guy and Rex Holt, who also oversaw the Miss California USA, Miss Texas USA and Miss Texas Teen USA pageants. They lost the contract in 1990, when it came up for renewal. [3]
California holds a record of 24 placements at Miss Teen USA.
