Washington Post, 22-Sep-2013: Nina Davuluri is halfway out the door of one of the dining rooms at Sequoia in Georgetown on Saturday when the applause begins. She has just finished lunch with members of the Upakar Foundation — an Indian American scholarship foundation, her first nonmedia appearance since taking the Miss America title on Sept. 15 — and since she’s not wearing her crown, it has taken this long for the rest of the room to catch on to who she is.
“Oh!” she says, laughing uncomfortably. “Thank you!”
“Pic?” asks a table of four 20-something female brunchers, pantomiming a camera click. But there’s no time. Davuluri is whisked out of the room and down the hallway, where she receives perhaps one of the most banal perks offered in her weird, wonderful job: premium restroom access.
