Name of “Miss America” featured in every other song (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

susan

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'name of miss' is the definition.
'Susan' can be an answer for 'name'. I am unsure of the 'of miss' bit.

'america featured in every other song' is the wordplay.
'america' becomes 'usa' (synonyms).
'featured in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'every other' indicates alternate letters.
The alternating letters of 'song' are 'sn'.
'usa' inserted within 'sn' is 'SUSAN'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for susan that I've seen before include "female" , "Girl (sometimes lazy?)" , "Server at table's no lazy" , "Girl's name; lazy -" , "woman" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
