The Miss Universe Organization has launched a campaign to find a 52nd contestant for the 2016 Miss USA competition.

AceShowbiz - The Miss USA competition is looking for contestant No. 52. The Miss Universe Organization announced on Wednesday, April 20 that it's launching a campaign to find a 52nd contestant for this summer's competition which will air live on Sunday, June 5 on FOX.

This will mark the first time that the pageant, which usually consists of 51 contestants, will welcome a 52nd woman to the stage to join other contestants from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Everyone who wants to join the competition should post three photos or videos on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtag #FindingMiss52 and explain why they would be a worthy candidate.

The organization is now accepting applications which will be reviewed "by an expert judging panel based on originality/creativity, personality and a web interview." On May 10, after the organization picks the top 10 candidates, the public will then have a chance to vote to choose the winner who will go on to compete with the other 51 ladies.

"Miss USA is someone who is strong, determined, and confident," said Paula M. Shugart, president of The Miss Universe Organization. "Our competitions celebrate women from all backgrounds and with Finding Miss 52, we hope to inspire more women to step out of their comfort zones and experience the amazing opportunities our organization offers."
