Little Miss African American 2009!!!

This year's show was another success! The girl's were amazing. They had the audience crying, laughing and standing to their feet. I encourage anyone who has a daughter ages 6 to 12 to be a part of LMAA next year. I of course spent the entire show in my favorite place, BACKSTAGE stage directing.


It's always a magical feeling hearing words you've written being performed and received with love. I couldn't have asked for a better performance. All the months of hard work, sleepless nights, crying and pulling my hair out while writing the script for the show was SOOOOOOOOO worth it. Lisa Ruffin (Founder of LMAA) is a beautiful inspiration. Working with her on LMAA for the past two years has been more than a job, it's been a life lesson. I couldn't have asked God for a better teacher. Thanks to all of the celebs who showed up to celebrate with us! Claudia Jordan, Tichina Arnold, LisaRaye McCoy, Laila Ali, Chandra Wilson and James Pickens to name a few. They were a pleasure to work with and these girls will remember them FOREVER! Enjoy the PICS =)

Los Angeles, CA - The 15th Annual Little Miss African American Pageant, held Sunday, August 10 at the Universal Sheraton Hotel in Los Angeles, was quite a star studded affair. A host of celebrities turned out to support contestants aged 6 to 12 as they demonstrated wonderful feats of accomplishment, emphasizing brains over beauty. "Grey's Anatomy's" Chandra Wilson and James Pickens, Jr., Dawnn Lewis, Lisa Raye Misick, Howard Hewett, Roz Ryan, Claudia Jordan, Chris Spencer and Antwone Fisher were just a few of celebrities on hand to participate in the festivities.

The surprise appearance of rap legend, LL Cool J was a treat, however, that the young ladies and stunned audience will remember for a long time! LL Cool J took the stage to speak to the young ladies personally, acknowledging their talent and motivating them to be the best they could be in their future endeavors.

Nine year old, Little Miss Mishal Thrower from Sacramento, CA was crowned the winner of the 15th Annual Little Miss African American Scholarship pageant event winning a trip to Disneyland in Florida with her family!
