So just who is the hunky man on Sanchez's arm?

Well, he's starred in several hit movies such as The Hunger Games and X-Men: First Class and has also appeared on the ABC Family series Pretty Little Liars.

And there's another Hollywood connection with the newly crowned Miss USA and her boyfriend.

It turns out that Booko is pals with none other than Evan Ross and his fiancée Ashlee Simpson.

Ross celebrated Sanchez on Instagram as well writing, "Congrats!!! @missnvusa2014 so excited for you. I'm sure you and my brother @danielbooko are celebrating. You won!!!!"

During the press conference, Sanchez also admitted that she can't wait to splurge on some Italian food after weeks of prepping for the competition.

"Anything hearty," she admitted, when asked what she was craving. "I'm excited."

She also explained that she's beyond ecstatic to visit New York City, adding that Booko would need to move there if she decided to make the Big Apple her home.

Looks like there's no possibility for a long-distance relationship here!
