Miss Seattle forced to apologise for criticising city Appearing on NBC's Today show, Ahn, who was Miss Phoenix before becoming Miss Seattle, added: "That day the weather was very cold, rainy, I mean, what can you expect? It is Seattle. It was, like I said, wrong place, wrong time. I just did not think before I acted," she told NBC's Today show. I did not mean directly the people in Seattle. I think I just meant the people in general. I mean, who isn't annoyed by annoying people? Asked if she had come round to her new town, Ahn added: "So beautiful, the summers are to die for. I really do love Seattle, it was just that particular day it happened to be that I tweeted that unfortunate tweet and it fell into the wrong hands. The new Miss Seattle now goes on to the Miss Washington Pageant this summer.
