Britt won her first major pageant title, Mission Arkansas United States of America, in early 1982. She went on to win the title in the nationally televised pageant held in Biloxi, Mississippi in May 1982. She is also remembered for her exuberant reaction when she was announced as the new, as she had the next-to-lowest preliminary score among the semi-finalists. Britt is the first and only titleholder from Arkansas. After she won the title, no women from Arkansas placed in the pageant until Jessica Furrer"s semi-finalist placement in 2005. Britt was also the first Mission Arkansas United States of America to hail from Cabot, and the only winner until Whitney Moore of the same town won the title in 2000.
