NHA TRANG, Vietnam (AP) - For the second year in a row, Miss USA has fallen down during the evening gown competition at Miss Universe.
     
It was a nightmare come true for Miss USA Crystle Stewart, a Texan, who tripped on the train of her bejeweled evening gown as she made her entrance.
     
Her mishap occurred just after the judges had narrowed the field of 80 to the final 10: Miss USA, Miss Kosovo, Miss Australia, Miss Spain, Miss Mexico, Miss Colombia, Miss Dominican Republic, Miss Russia, Miss Italy and Miss Venezuela.
     
During the 2007 Miss Universe in Mexico City, Miss USA Rachel Smith also tumbled during the evening gown competition. The fall earned her star status on YouTube.
