Miss USA 2011, the 60th anniversary of the Miss USA pageant, was held at the Theatre for the Performing Arts in Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada on June 19, 2011.

Historical significance
- Alyssa Campanella becomes the third known Miss USA with red hair, although it should be noted that this is not her natural hair color (natural blonde).
- Campanella is also the highest ranked state delegate at a Miss Teen USA competition (1st runner-up in 2007) to win the Miss USA title outright (Only one Miss Teen USA winner has ever held the Miss USA title, and it was inherited by Brandi Sherwood in 1997.).
- California won Miss USA for the sixth time. The last winner was Shannon Marketic in 1992.
- Tennessee made its sixth straight placement at Miss USA and its highest since Rachel Smith won in 2007.
- Alabama made its highest placement since coming in 1st runner-up in 2003.
- Texas made its highest placement since Crystle Stewart won in 2008.
- Maryland made its first placement since 2005.
- Hawaii made its first placement since 2007.
- Indiana placed in the semifinals since 2008.
- New York made its first placement since 2005.
- Utah, South Carolina and Georgia return to the semifinals after 2009.
- Missouri made its second consecutive placement after placing in 2007-2008.
- New Mexico's Brittany Toll becomes the first state delegate to make it past the first elimination in the history of Miss USA due to new media technology (internet/SMS vote). New Mexico last placed in 2004.
