Miss New York Kira Kazantsev won the Miss America pageant Sunday night, with the help of a red plastic cup.
For her talent performance, Kazantsev sang Pharrell Williams' "Happy" while sitting cross-legged on the stage and banging a red plastic cup on the floor. Kazantsev received the crown at Atlantic City's Boardwalk Hall from outgoing Miss America — and Miss New York — Nina Davuluri
Other top 5 finalists were Miss Arkansas Ashton Jo Campbell; Miss Florida Victoria Cowen; and Miss Massachusetts Lauren Kuhn.
For three hours Sunday night, America got a different look at Atlantic City. The Miss America pageant presented an upbeat view of the city where it began in 1921.
It featured iconic Atlantic City visuals including its beach, Boardwalk, the Steel Pier, Black Fish Pier near Brigantine, and the Atlantic City Beach Patrol station.
Kira Kazantsev beat out 52 other women who tried to get the crown.
Kazantsev, 22, hails from Manhattan.
Kazantsev’s win marks the third year in a row that a contestant from her state has walked away with the crown in the nationally televised pageant.

She named combating assault in the military as the issue she would want female U.S. Senators to press their male counterparts.
