'Miss Congeniality' scene-stealer Heather Burns is always here to remind us that April 25 is 'the perfect date'

The 2000 action-comedy Miss Congeniality was a star vehicle in the truest sense for Sandra Bullock, the Speed and Practical Magic actress who flaunted her comedic chops in an unforgettable turn as an uncouth FBI agent who goes deep undercover as a beauty pageant contestant.share
But the film’s most famous line belongs to one of Bullock's co-stars — and it wasn't one of the bolder-faced, like Michael Caine or Benjamin Bratt or William Shatner or Candice Bergen.
It's from Heather Burns, who plays Cheryl Frasier — aka Miss Rhode Island.
"Describe your perfect date," Miss United States host Stanley Fields (Shatner) instructs Cheryl during an onstage interview session.
"It's a tough one," Cheryl giggles uncomfortable before dropping this gem: "I'd have to say April 25. Because it's not too hot, not too cold. All you need is a light jacket."
Miss Rhode Island is way off-course — Stan's colloquial use of "perfect date" obviously refers to a romantic outing. But one of the reasons the joke works so well is because, as far as her misinterpretation goes, Cheryl makes a great point: The end of April is generally beautiful, weather-wise, in most parts of the country.
It’s no wonder Cheryl winds up winning Miss United States at the end of the movie (spoiler alert) — with Bullock's special agent Gracie Hart (who saves Cheryl from a detonating tiara) being named first runner-up.
That also allowed Burns to return for the 2005 sequel Miss Congeniality: Armed and Fabulous as Miss United States.
As for April 25, there's a very good reason for that specific date to be the subject of Cheryl's reply: director Donald Petrie has admitted that he changed the date from the script to honor his wife's birthday.
