Caitlin Upton

Remember Caitlin Upton? She was Miss South Carolina Teen USA in 2007 and became famous for her response to the question, "Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a world map. Why do you think this is?"

"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some, people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our, uh, education like such as, uh, South Africa and, uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and, I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, or, uh, should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future, for our children."

The good news? She has a sense of humor about herself. At the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards Upton performed a parody of her infamous pageant answer, and now the beauty queen turned model is learning where babies come from for the benefit of the "Jimmy Kimmel Live" audience. After doing her due diligence on natural child birth, Caitlin sits down with Octomom in the second video to talk about IVF. It's a pretty weird combo.

Dumb as a rock and a good sense of humor.

I thought it would be embarassing or stupid but for the most part I found it pretty amusing. Good for Katie.

this is how pageant contestants handle their 15 minutes of fame when they aren't filled with the holy spirit of moral hypocracy and self righteous indignation. Take note, Prejean...and Palin.

I think her real name is Caitlin Palin. Betcha she believes humans walked the earth with dinosaurs 6000 years ago, and that humans are unrelated to the rest of life on the planet.

A lot of us geezers could actually learn from this kid. I don't know who put her up to it, but she owes the person a huuuuge favor. Talk about going from laughing at to laughing with. Comedy truly has the power to redeem. Good luck girl, and I'm glad for you that you did not take that global embarrassment you must have suffered with the "like such as..." as an excuse to mope and call the world unfair - rather, you chose to laugh at yourself. Palin could learn a thing or two from this kid.

She's been hired by Faux to replace Bill O riely when he strokes out from all the screaming about nothing he does.

Her original reply at the Teen Contest rambles like Palin's resignation gibber for the cameras. Except this one could accept her bumble and make good, and our close call for VP, well, what a train wreck.

Ahright! We even got a money shot, courtesy of Octomom. Caitlin should become a regular here.

She should do interviews for The Daily Show.

I tought that was actually funny... whether she does it on purpose or not. Kind of Sarah Silverman-esque, no?

How embarrassing for her. Why is she still wearing that silly banner—so she won't get lost?

So the audience doesn't get lost.

THAT is how you begin to redeem yourself after a public humiliation.

Damn- I can't despise her anymore. Comic potential. She could be on SNL. I do believe she actually gets the jokes, unlike Palin- whose sense of humor is as warped and deficient as her intellect.
