Spotlight on...Avery Nooyen!

Ladies and gentlemen, your new Miss Royalty Interntional Junior queen is....AVERY NOOYEN!

Get to know Avery in our exclusive interview below:

MRI - Avery, what do you like to do in your spare time?
Avery - In my spare time I like to ride horses.  I was the 1st place winner of the Wisconsin Equestrian Center horse show. I also love doing pageants, having sleepovers with my friends, playing with my cat Kalee, and singing for my tribe.

MRI - What is your favorite hobby?
Avery - My favorite hobby is horse riding because I get to see my friend Daisy. I have to practice very hard on my horse riding because I have to be good at my foot work and controlling the horse.

MRI - What did you do to prepare for the pageant?
Avery - I put a lot of effort into preparing for the pageant. I practiced with my mom 24/7 at my house and by myself in my room. Even when we were driving to Milwaukee I practiced my interview questions on the car ride down. I know I had to prepare a lot for the pageant if I wanted to be Miss Royalty International Junior.

Avery won best t-shirt in the Miss Royalty International t-shirt decorating contest!

MRI - What is one piece of advice you have for next year’s contestants?
Avery - Don’t be worried. Just have fun. Do your best.

MRI - What is your favorite vacation spot?
Avery - My favorite vacation spot is Las Vegas because they have a lot of entertainment for me and my family to do.  Every time I go to Las Vegas, it is always warm there, so I never have to wear a jacket.  I also like to watch people jump off the Stratosphere. 

Avery's mom, Raven, had fun jumping out of the Stratosphere in Las Vegas!

MRI - What organization is your favorite to volunteer for?
Avery - During Christmas time, I bring presents to the nursing home in Green Bay, WI, and give them to the residents.  When the residents see me, they always have a smile on their face and are surprised and very excited.

MRI - What is your fondest memory?
Avery - My fondest memory is winning my first title; Miss Milwaukee.  I had a lot of fun.  I still remember the song they played when I won; "Girl on Fire," by Alicia Keys.

MRI - What makes Miss Royalty International different from any other pageant you’ve been in?Avery - At the Miss Royalty International pageant, everyone is happy and nice, and I felt like a princess the entire time I was there.  The crown and sash are beautiful, also, with all the rhinestones on it.
