Continuity: In the scene in the bar when Gracie is talking 'girl talk' with Cheryl, the Rhode Island contestant, you can see Cheryl's hair hanging down over her right eye.  As they switch camera angles, you can clearly see that her hair is now high up on her forehead. The camera angles repeatedly switch back and forth, with the hair differences easy to spot.

Continuity: When Gracie exits the taxi cab upon arriving at the hotel you will notice her jacket is off her shoulder so you see her purse string, the state name sash and some flesh, yet in the next shot her jacket is completely on and covering her shoulder and then in the next shot her shoulder is exposed again and then switches yet again to her shoulder being covered by her jacket.

Other: When Gracie falls down when she is getting on the bus to go to breakfast, if you turn the caption on it says that Mrs. Morningside called her Miss. Greenbush when her name is suppose to be Freebush.

Continuity: When Gracie throws the crown, it blows up the Statue of Liberty prop. When the camera shoots back to Gracie and Cheryl, Cheryl faints into Gracie's arms and the sash falls down from her shoulder. In the next shots of the audience and the runway, Gracie falls down with Cheryl, but Cheryl's sash is up on her shoulder again.

Continuity: When Kathy puts on the crown, the letters she just finished writing are a bit scattered and also her glasses are lying on the bottom sheet. Before she picks up the letters to point them out to Frank, they are in a neat stack. The glasses seem to be gone, since she isn't too careful when picking up the papers and there is no sound of the glasses falling or sliding onto the table.

Continuity: The paint splatters change several times between the shots of Gracie eating pizza and the ones back at the hotel.

Continuity: When Victor is talking to Matthews and Gracie about her not having any talent, it shows Gracie in the background stuffing two doughnuts down her dress. Victor gets both of these back from her, but it never showed her hiding the third doughnut that the dog smelled. The way the scene worked, there was a shot of Gracie stuffing the two doughnuts down her dress, and then a shot of her walking up to Victor and Matthews, so there would've been no time for her to stash the third one.

Continuity: When Gracie is letting Miss Rhode Island out of her room after they drink the hot chocolate, she is holding the blue mug that she was drinking from. As she turns off the light and walks toward her bed, the mug is now on her nightstand.

Continuity: At the end of the movie, when Miss Rhode Island is crowned, Gracie runs after Cheryl. When she runs, one of her dress straps is down, and when the shot changes, it is back up again.

Continuity: When Gracie's being waxed, she shouts, and Victor says "Bikini wax", and immediately after that Gracie appears - pretty fast after the shout, don't you think?
