Who is Blair Griffith?

Blair Adair Griffith is an American beauty pageant titleholder who won Miss Colorado USA 2010 and represented Colorado in Miss USA 2011. Griffith reached national and international headlines when she revealed she and her mother were homeless and that Griffith was out of a job after winning the title in November 2010. Griffith has earlier won the Miss Congeniality part of Miss Teen USA 2006 without placing in the Top 15. According to Griffith, her mother Bonita's sudden heart attack, and major surgery led to the family's economic situation and bankcruptcy. Griffith's mother also lost her insurance when her insurer declared that the heart attack was the result of a pre-existing condition. That meant that she had to pay her medical expenses, including $800 a month for medications, on her own. Her father died when she was fourteen years old of prostate cancer. In early April fashion designer Mac Duggal revealed he had agreed to design all the gowns that Griffith will need to be in the pageant free of charge.
