NEW BRUNSWICK — Betty Cantrell, Miss America 2015, made friends and mesmerized the patients at the PSE&G Children's Specialized Hospital in New Brunswick Wednesday morning.
Whether she met them in the hallways, in the gym while they did therapy, in their rooms, or when they gathered around her to hear her read and sing to them, the children gazed up at Cantrell, who wore her silver crown, star-struck.
But one little boy had a lot to say.
When Cantrell asked Spencer Fairfield, 5, if he would be her boyfriend, he readily answered, "I'm already a boyfriend."
The patients at the PSE&G Children's Specialized Hospital and its other affiliated hospitals in New Jersey, all of which are Children Miracle Network Hospitals, are there for rehabilitation.

Rebecca Mazzarella, a spokeswoman for the hospital said Miss America titleholders have supported the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, since 1989, helping with fundraising and visiting hospitalized children.
After visiting individual patients, many of them joined her in a recreation room where Cantrell read stories to them and sang, "Let It Go," from the movie, "Frozen."
