Americans?

Or U.S. Americans, as she called them?

Poor girl though, now everyone will think she is dumb even though we have no idea if that's true or if she just got nervous or something while answering that question.

I just found she was interviewed after the pageant contest and said that it was the first time she was on national TV, so she got nervous and barely heard the question.

yeah its in the article in the 1st post, tbh you can see she's bricking it if she were genuinely that dim she'd have had a more relaxed posture when answering
