Miss Congeniality
Gracie Hart (Bullock) is an FBI agent who goes undercover in the fictional Miss United States scholarship program/beauty pageant, on the lookout for a serial bomber. She is a feminist who is not traditionally attractive, and is turned into a more attractive woman going by the name of Gracie Lou Freebush... with the same tomboyish habits.

In the pageant itself, Hart was tabbed to advance to the top 15, but gets through on talent alone for the rest of the pageant; she eventually places second. It is revealed at the end of the movie that Morningside and her son Frank Tobin have plotted to sabotage the pageant; they are caught after the title crown (which is actually a bomb) detonates at conclusion of the pageant, and Gracie is awarded "Miss Congeniality" (although The Miss Congeniality award is usually given during the pageant itself, a custom in pageants such as Miss USA and Miss Universe) and starts a relationship with her partner Eric Matthews (Bratt).
