The pageant is currently held in Springfield and has previously been hosted by Mentor, Steubenville and Portsmouth.[2][3][4][5]

Two Ohio representatives, Sue Downey in 1965 and Kim Seelbrede in 1981, have won the Miss USA title and competed in the Miss Universe pageant.[6][7][8]

The most notable Miss Ohio USA is actress and Oscar winner Halle Berry, who was 1st runner up at Miss USA 1986.[9] Other notable former titleholders include actress, model and sportscaster Jayne Kennedy[10] and two former Survivor contestants, Kim Mullen of Survivor: Palau and Candace Smith of Survivor: Tocantins.[11][12] Two Miss Ohio USA titleholders have previously competed at Miss Teen USA. Two have also competed at Miss America. The most recent placement was Sir'Quora Carroll placing 3rd runner-up in 2022.
