The competition package presented by me that exciting night would not have materialized without the help of an amazing group of supporters. There are a great number of people to be thanked.... I will attempt to keep this brief: Tumara Mahorning, Sasha Nicole, Michelle McCausland, the prop masters Rodney and Scott, my wonderful dancers (Johnathan, Clayton, Raymond, Lois, Karilyn, Greg, and Keith), the best dresser in the world Karyn Thomas, my lover and muffin - Jay, Stephen for your ever present belief (even though I may argue when you press me!), Scott D, flight attendant Geoff, Michael M, Karl A, the staff & management of Clementine's, my loving and supportive family (who kept MGM weekend busy by supporting me and attending to an injured family member), the staff & management of Irene's Cabaret and the Grey Fox, and of course my drag family who is always there when I need them.... Melissa Marnier, Mariah Candy, Hope Holaway, Veronica Leigh Taylor, and Jessica Leigh Foster. Finally I would also like to thank the many supporters of myself and of the Miss Gay Missouri pageantry system.
As Miss Gay Missouri there are several things I would like to accomplish. In recent years we have watched the number of contestants at MGM grow to historic levels. I would like to continue to grow the Miss Gay Missouri pageantry system, and encourage participation from the areas in Missouri where we are not present... Cape Girardeau, Poplar Bluff, and Joplin. Participating in MGM as a contestant or promoter can appear a daunting task. Experienced in both, I am here to answer your questions and to guide anyone interested - there is no such thing as a silly question! In preparing for MGM and for MGA, I have asked for support and contributions from fellow community members. During my reign, please know that I am still available to participate in your charitable causes as well.
In closing, I would like to reiterate the honor bestowed upon me. Thirty five years of tradition and excellence. I hope to continue the legacy and pass down to our 36th Miss Gay Missouri a system even more spectacular than what we have today.
Thank you.... Jade Sinclair - MGM 2007 |
