Backstage at Miss USA 2018 | Finals night! | Dani Walker

[@saminsweet928]

I cried in the first 10 seconds. Dani, you are absolutely incredible 💜

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you Sami

[@AestheticallyDope]

I, myself decided not to compete this year for Miss Florida USA. I personally don't feel like it is my time. I want to focus on me more and on building a brand before competing. And that's what's important to me. Best of luck to you.

[@big3missuie212]

And I’m happy to see where you are two years later! 💕

[@DaniWalker]

🥰 thank you!

[@kristenalyssa8223]

I teared up in the beginning of this!! You are so beautiful inside and out Dani and I am so proud of all you have accomplished. Thank you for sharing your experience with us and being such a wonderful role model to girls across the country!! Can't wait to see your recap vlog

[@DaniWalker]

Kristen Alyssa thank you for being so supportive!! 💕💕💕

[@kristenalyssa8223]

Of course!! You have inspired me so much

[@jaybronson6932]

I know this video is four years old but I always come back to the beginning. You’re so right, Dani, you didn’t need that crown. Four years later and you’re so clearly walking in your purpose and inspiring myself and countless others. Don’t ever change ❤

[@michkay1]

I'm so proud of you Dani! It was so amazing to see you achieve such a dream come true! It's just so nice to see all y'all girls being so happy and thankful to be there and rooting for each other! So happy for all of y'all!

[@timothyesterhuizen3482]

The struggle it was to watch live from South Africa was real. And I might have screamed the neighbours awake tho'. When you walked on the final live the swimsuit part in front I was like oh now the judges know what they missed. I'll be following your journey with you.

[@DaniWalker]

Timothy Esterhuizen awww 😭💕 thank you for supporting me!! I had the best time.

Danni. I love you. You work so hard to promote your cause xx plus you looked amazing on stage. Xx

[@DaniWalker]

Thank you!!!

[@faithemerson4850]

I like your outlook on it. Everything happens for a reason! I always like to think that maybe the people that get something that you want or that you tried to receive is because they need it more than you in that moment! I love you Dani ❤️❤️

[@DaniWalker]

[@gearmeup2307]

Love you Dani, always an inspiration. You looked amazing on stage :-)

[@jeanplaisir8027]

I love you Dani... I'm lost to why you did not make Finals stay beautiful ❤️

[@ahfclass]

OHMYGOODNESS is Narina's little brother just the best??? He sat behind us at Miss Utah USA when Narina won, and I have never seen or heard a more excited, supportive, loving fan in my life, and probably never will again. He broke down and bawled his adorable eyes out when she won UTUSA.

[@DaniWalker]

Oh I know he's the cutest. He messaged me before she won, he told me all about Narine and how she was competing. I was so happy when I heard she had won.

[@doctorsim22]

You are so amazing dani we love you so much.. 😘

[@joelrubio1972]

I’m new to following pageants. Got ignited by Catriona. Thanks for your pageant coverages. You’re a beautiful queen. Super adorable if I may add.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lbee8158]

how many seats or people in there? are the seats occupied?

[@DaniWalker]

It was a 10,000 seat coliseum and most of the seats were filled :)

[@lbee8158]

@@DaniWalker wow thanks for the reply Miss Dani, coz I was wondering that if IMG loses audience there. The live pageant didnt show the audience in the bleachers.

[@gracecarlander1964]

Are prelims and finals in the same day

[@DaniWalker]

Gcswimmer2703 my year they were two different days.

[@ahfclass]

It's just ironic to me that The Women who make it all the way to Miss USA are the ones watching it on a tv screen! It's the same at Miss America. I mean, I don't know how else it would be done, but--ugh--I want you girls on the front row of the venue, showered with all the loves! Of course, that would mean no tootsie rolls, so...give and take, right? ;)

[@DaniWalker]

Hahaha yes very true. Some pageants do reserve seats for contestants after semi's are announced. I like that idea :)

[@belenruiz3987]

Omg Miss Hannah Alabama! She looks so happy!😂

[@DaniWalker]

Yes, she was always smiling :)

[@ApprenPlayer]

I see “Bama Girl” Hannah Brown at 4:30. She is so famous now than Sarah Rose.

[@DaniWalker]

Yes, you spotted her!

[@jimmyx2616]

Claude Mac Hannah B is also shown @6:30_6:45/50 at the crowning (front/ then right side) talking to Dani's friend Daisy ( Miss RI 18).

Welcome 🥰🥰🥰

[@Haggiedc2]

Dani… this came up on my feed… let me say this… based on who they put in top 12/10 that year you should have been there… I found the results of that year very strange… you looked amazing

[@brookiewaxman2625]

Dani, You basically were front and center during SwimSuit.

[@DaniWalker]

Yes :)

[@venushahn1788]

Not a fan of Sarah Specially w her nasty behavior at Universe Shame on u Sarah Nevada should had taken her spot
