Also among the
fabulous set of
2011 National
judges was
Daneka Allen,
Miss Oklahoma
1999. She
wowed the finals
night crowd &
contestants by
performing
"Believe In
Yourself" before
crowning.
Congratulaions to Alyse Eady! Alyse, who held numerous titles growing up with Our Diamond Miss, was crowned in June of 2011 as Miss Arkansas. As if that wasn't enough, Alyse traveled to Las Vegas in January 2011 to compete at the Miss America pageant where she placed 1st runner-up! You're ODM family loves you, couldn't be prouder of you & happier for you. We also were thrilled to have you on our 2011 National panel of judges. We wish you luck as you now start your newest adventure...your new job as morning news co-anchor out of Little Rock! You've come a long way baby!

"Grandma" Betty
Melton has spent
20+ years giving
back to the girls of
ODM, including her
help in founding
the Bob Melton
Scholarship fund
that has given over
$35,000 in
scholarships to
contestants though
the years. It only
seemed right that
she should be part
of the "ODM Hall of
Fame". Presenting
her with her crown
& banner are
previous National
Overall Winners &
Hall of Fame girls
themselves,
Stasha Baker &
Summer James.
After being crowned the 2011 National Tot,
Graycie White (KS) was presented with the
traditional stuffed animal. It took a little work,
but she wasn't going to leave the stage
without it! Special thanks to Harold, Penny &
GiGi for supplying this year's toy & finding a
way to get it to Nationals!
