Miss Alabama Is Crowned Miss WKRG
Atmore Woman Wins Local Pageant
Outpouring of Outrage on Social Media Draws Attention
ATMORE, Ala. (July 11, 2023) -- An Atmore woman was crowned Miss WKRG on June 3, 2023, at the annual pageant held at the city's Civic Center. The winner, 22-year-old Mary Smith, is a graduate of Atmore Christian School and is currently attending Auburn University where she is majoring in nursing.
Smith was chosen from a field of 10 contestants by a panel of judges. She will now represent WKRG-TV in the Miss Alabama pageant later this year.
The Miss WKRG pageant is a preliminary competition for the Miss Alabama pageant, which is a preliminary competition for the Miss America pageant. The Miss America pageant is the oldest beauty pageant in the United States, and it is one of the most prestigious.
Smith's win has been met with some controversy. In late May and early June 2024, some social media users expressed outrage when they saw the winner. They argued that Smith was not the most beautiful or talented contestant, and they accused the judges of being biased. However, Smith's supporters defended her, saying that she is a beautiful, intelligent, and talented woman who deserves to represent WKRG.
The controversy surrounding Smith's win has drawn attention to the Miss America pageant and the standards by which contestants are judged. Some people argue that the pageant is outdated and sexist, while others argue that it is a celebration of beauty and talent. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to participate in the pageant is up to each individual woman.
Smith is the first woman from Atmore to be crowned Miss WKRG. She is a role model for young women in her community, and she is an inspiration to all who know her. We wish her the best of luck in the Miss Alabama pageant and in all her future endeavors.
