From Times Wire Reports

The annual Miss America pageant will be held on the Las Vegas Strip again next year, organizers said.

The crowning will air live Jan. 29 on Country Music Television from the Aladdin Resort & Casino. The 85-year-old beauty contest left its hometown of Atlantic City, N.J., for Las Vegas last year in search of a younger audience, a fresh look and lower production costs.

“I can’t tell you how happy everyone is to be returning to Las Vegas,” said Art McMaster, chief executive of the Miss America Organization.
