Tennessee has two new titleholders! Savannah Chrisley is the new Miss Tennessee Teen USA 2016, crowned on Saturday afternoon and Hope Stephens was crowned Miss TN USA later that evening! Savannah is 18 and from Atlanta, but is a freshman at Lipscomb University in Nashville. Her family stars on the reality television series Chrisley Knows Best. Hope is from Upper Cumberland and was first runner-up in the Teen pageant in 2014. Judges this year included Miss USA 2005 Chelsea Cooley and Miss USA 2001 finalist Tiffany Fallon.

Reversing pageant order for a sec (since I generally discuss Miss then Teen), first runner-up went to former Miss Tennessee 2011 Erin Hatley (top ten at Miss America) who was competing in MUO for the first time. She is the second former Miss America contestant to place 1RU in as many weeks. Second and fourth runners-up respectively were newcomers Sara Cardona and Alexandra Harper. Third runner-up went to last year's 1RU Kaileigh Bullard (the 1RU curse continues in TN!). Among the semi-finalists were 2015 second runner-up Megan Hale, 2014 Montana 1RU Melissa Gee, 2013 Tennessee Teen 4RU Katerina Daniele.
In Teen, first runner-up was Hope Parker, who was a semi-finalist last year and one spot behind the new Miss TN USA as 2RU at Miss TN Teen USA 2014. Second runner-up went to Samantha Havenstrite, who was competing for the first time. 2015 semi-finalist Corbin Hinson was third runner-up and Elise Stein repeated her 2015 placement, finishing as fourth runner-up.
