Baton Rouge, Louisiana, making her the first entrant from Oklahoma to win and the first winner from the South since
Kristen Dalton won representing North Carolina in
Miss USA 2009. Her question as a Miss USA finalist asked who she would choose as an American woman to put on the next new bill design. She named
Harriet Tubman. On April 20, 2016, the

$20 bill. During her reign, Donald Trump sold his stake in the
Miss Universe Organization ending his affiliation with the beauty pageant. Jordan represented the United States in the

Berta Bridal dress to the evening gown portion of the competition, and was chosen among the top ten dressed in the competition. Her national costume was that of a superhero based on a
bald eagle, the national bird of the United States. Jordan was the third person from the United States to compete at two major international beauty pageants after
Brucene Smith, who competed in
Miss World 1971 and won
Miss International 1974, and
Andrea Neu, who previously competed at
Miss International 2013 and
Miss Earth 2014. However, she had the distinction of being the first woman to represent the United States at two of the largest and oldest international pageants in the world: Miss World and Miss Universe. ==Personal life==
