It’s been 32 years since Vanessa Williams was forced to resign as Miss America after naked girl on girl pictures surfaced.

I guess after 3 decades, it was finally time for the CEO of Miss America, Sam Haskell to apologize to Vanessa Williams. She was crowned as the first black Miss America pageant in 1983 but that was short lived. Just 10 months later, she felt so much pressure to leave because nude photos from 1982 surfaced and came back to haunt her.

The show opened up with Haskell apologizing to Ms. Williams and her mother. She gracefully accepted the apology.

I have been a close friend to this beautiful and talented lady for 32 years. You have lived your life in grace and dignity and never was it more evident than during the events of 1984 when you resigned. Though none of us currently in the organization were involved then, on behalf of today’s organization, I want to apologize to you and to your mother, Miss Helen Williams. I want to apologize for anything that was said or done that made you feel any less than the Miss America you are and the Miss America you always will be.
