Alyssa Campanella admits she's a huge history geek and says in her Twitter bio that she was born in the wrong time period. I'm obsessed with the Stuart and Tudor era. ....

Campanella is also a fan of period dramas like The Tudors, Game of Thrones, and Camelot.Richard Harbaugh/Miss Universe L.P., LLLP - Monday, June, 20, 2011, 4:20 AM
