00:00So, Kelty, you have had a wonderful career in the media, but it wasn't without trials
00:07and tribulations, right?
00:08You know what it's like to be on that stage.
00:11What advice would you have to these women who might not be walking away the winner,
00:14but to trust the process?
00:16I think that rejection is your redirection.
00:20I failed miserably so many times at so many things, and that's what made me stronger,
00:25so that when I did get the big break, I was really ready for it.
00:30But the truth is, is that it never stops being sort of a rollercoaster.
00:34So I know we're here tonight, and I'm like, I'm all dressed up.
00:36I got my hair extensions in.
00:38I'm 100%.
00:39But the truth is, just last week, I lost out on something I wanted.
00:42So there never is a mountain or a hill that you hit, and then you're done, and you've
00:47made it.
00:48So it's just this constant grind.
00:49And what I told the girls on stage at rehearsal tonight, I just said, listen, it has to be
00:54one of you.
00:55You got to do the work tonight, and like, why not me is my mantra.
01:00Like someone has to be Miss USA tonight.
01:02Why not me?
01:03Go through the competition thinking, it's mine, I deserve this.
01:06And if it doesn't go your way, it'll work out in some other way.
01:10One more question for you.
01:11How does this hosting gig compare to something like E! News?
01:14Would you say this is the fun job, or is that the fun job?
01:17I mean, they're all great jobs.
01:19I just was with Mariah Carey last week in Las Vegas interviewing her, which is like
01:23a dream come true job for E! News.
01:26Hosting E! News is so fun, but that's my family, right?
01:28Like I know how to do that.
01:30This is live television.
01:31People from around the country are watching, millions of people.
01:34There's a lot of pressure, and I'm doing four costume changes within the show.
01:38So there's a little bit more pressure, but honestly, I love live TV.
01:41I love how excited everyone is to be here.
01:44The fact that someone like you is here, like this is just so exciting, and we're thrilled.
01:48All right, we got to see your crowning moment.
01:50Pretend the crown is on your head.
01:52You just won.
01:53Crown, fall, trip, and I'm out.
01:55Oh, that's not going to happen to me.
01:57I'm very clumsy.
01:58Thank God no one's going to try to put the crown on me, but actually, Patrick has a crown
02:03in his resting room, and I tried it on earlier, so.
02:05I think it would fit you really nicely.
02:07Well, thank you so much, Kelsey.
02:08Nice to meet you.
02:09Have a wonderful night.
