So unfortunately there are still no events I can attend or help with at the moment so I’m carrying on with online campaigns and interviews!
My first online campaign for the week is …
Joining in with Cheniel’s campaign who is a YEMI finalist about raising awareness for Domestic Abuse.
Domestic abuse can include, but is not limited to, the following:
• Coercive control (a pattern of intimidation, degradation, isolation and control with the use or threat of physical or sexual violence)
• Psychological and/or emotional abuse [2]
• Physical or sexual abuse
You can join in the campaign with the info below!
“I would like to welcome you to join my campaign it’s not always as it seems. This is to spread awareness on the different type of domestic abuse, to show that not all domestic abuse are physical. Not all the scars can be see on the outside
Take 1 photo with you all glam, happy and smiling. Take another photo strip back in something comfy (onesie,pjs, loungewear) not smiling and in black and white. Place in a collage together with the hashtag #Itnotalwaysasitseems
In a video or caption share a fact, a myth or a type of Domestic abuse. Information can be found on https://www.womensaid.org.uk”
Tonight I’ll be doing a live chat with some fellow queens !!
Here’s a little photo of my interview !
I recently took part in Megan Jubbs campaign
Here’s the full post
When looking at the collage above, what do you think we have in common?
Is it we’re all girls? That most of us do pageants? That were all smiling? Yes you are right but what you don’t see if that the one thing ALL of us on this collage have in common is that we all suffer with an invisible illness or disability. All these amazing people on this collage have struggles that you cannot physically see, but struggles that affect our life’s daily. I wanted to make this collage to show that invisible illnesses and disabilities are a thing and can result in hospital visits, surgery and more , just like visible illnesses and disabilities can, just because you can’t see it, doesn’t it mean it doesn’t exist, there is more than meets the eye💝
Often those struggling are seen as lazy or inconsiderate but this is far from the truth, they have as much right as someone you can see who is visibly struggling. These people are the reason I try and raise as much awareness as possible, all those struggling out there, are my reason 💕
It’s so important to be kind, you never know who may be fighting the invisible💓
Thank you to everyone who got involved by sending in a picture, it’s really helped to show that anyone, any age can struggle💝

I also got a little thank you in the mail !
My next online campaign is …
Supporting my sister Queen Teen Diamond U.K. / Teen Regency International Lucy !! In her campaign for transgender and LGBTQ+ sisters. “Many pageants still have rules that are trans exclusionary (“born/genetically female” as opposed to Legally Female) and some have Rules against Gay Women. These rules are depriving transgender women of a voice and a platform within pageantry. As we have seen Miss Universe has led by example and given us an incredible role model for young women in Angela Ponce as well as amazing representation for young transgender women. Please show your support of transgender and LGBTQ+ queens and pageant girls. Share a picture of you in white, pink or blue and the trans pride flag. Do not deprive us of LGBTQ+ Voices in our pageant sisterhood.”
