Shandi Finnessey

During the most watched "Miss USA" competition in six years, all-American blonde Shandi Finnessey was crowned Miss USA in 2004. Born June 9, 1978 in Florissant, MO, Finnessey parlayed her pageant success into hosting two game shows on the Game Show Network - "Lingo" (2002- ) with Chuck Woolery and "Playmania" (2006- ). Finnessey had enough of a following to earn a spot in the celebrity lineup for the fourth season of "Dancing with the Stars" (ABC, 2005- ). Often compared to season two's leggy Stacy Keibler, Finnessey was partnered with newcomer to the show, professional dancer, Brian Fortuna.
