Our Little Miss just celebrated its 58th year as a natural pageant system that aims to keep girls natural and age appropriate. The system starts with a local preliminary pageant, then state, and then to the world level. All ages from infant to grown women can compete.
The contestants participate in several events during the pageant such as Team OLM, interview, sportswear, evening gown, and a final on stage question. At the end of the competition, winners are chosen for each of the eight age groups during the grand finals.
This year, Mississippi’s Our Little Miss state pageant is being held Friday-Sunday, April 12 -14. The grand finals will begin at 2:30 this Sunday, at the Magee High School Auditorium.
