Baraquio succeeds Miss America 2000 Heather French, 25, of Maysville, Ky., the daughter of a disabled Vietnam veteran who spent her year campaigning on behalf of homeless veterans. The pageant, a mid-September network staple for more than 40 years, was pushed back a month this year because officials worried it would lose viewers to the Summer Olympics on NBC if it aired at the same time. ABC and Miss America officials took other steps to boost ratings, as well. They jazzed up the three-hour special by spicing up the set, adding club-style dance music and lighting, adding the live performance of boy band O-Town (of TV’s “Making the Band” fame), and accelerating the announcement of the 10 finalists in hopes that viewers would stay tuned.
