The Rising Stars program is not a competition but rather a mentoring and learning process.

• The activities for the Rising Stars are subject to change every year; participants come to the Miss Alabama Competition for activities that may include:

• Lunch and rehearsal with the Miss Alabama candidate one day during competition week 

• Participation on stage during one of the preliminary nights of competition 

• Picture in the Miss Alabama program book 

• Autographed photo of Miss Alabama 

• Miss Alabama program book 

• Crown jewelry (one piece) 

• T-Shirt 

• Certificate of participation

• The Rising Stars of the top ten finalists may be featured at the annual Miss Alabama Fashion Show

The following items are required for participation:

• Application 

• Statement of Understanding  

• Registration fee (made payable to the Miss Alabama Organization) 

• 5 x 7 head shot (color or black and white)

When a candidate wins a local title, she must work through her local competition to recruit or appoint her Rising Star. The Miss Alabama Competition maintains a list of interested parties in case a candidate and local competition need a referral for a Rising Star. If you know someone who is interested in partnering as a Rising Star with a Miss Alabama candidate, or if you have any questions, please contact KeLeigh Pritchett.
