The 7 Fierce Spelman College Pageant Contestants Setting Social Media on Fire!

First up is junior student Taylor Mills, and she puts up a hard act to follow. Her confidence is unshakeable, and she immediately pulls in the attention of her crowd. The girl is killing it!

The theatre and performance major’s campaign is all about authenticity. Mills believes in embracing individuality and strengthening sisterhood through the arts, while also advocating for all her Spelman sisters to be seen and heard.

Mitchell poses the question, “If you don’t choose Camryn, then who would you choose?” Repping Chicago, Illinois, Mitchell has the crowd fired up listening to her campaign introduction.

Mitchell is a sociology major with a Spanish minor. Mitchell, who is on the pre-law track, called her platform the “down-to-earth movement.” And by that, she means to tailor her Spelman sister’s interests outside of just their major or minor, to also prioritize their mental and physical wellbeing.

Chelsea Benton is unshaken by the stellar performances by her fellow Spelman sisters. “While others might be for everybody, I’m who the crown belongs to,” she declared. And she gets the crowd hype!

Benton is a health science major on the pre-medical track, and her platform is being “True To Yourself.” The “T” is for transformative, “R” is for resilient, the “U” is for uplift, and the “E” is for empowerment. She wants Spelman students to recognize their intrinsic values and show up as the best versions of themselves on both sides of the college gates.

Harps proclaimed: “Your search for the queen is done because like my institution I come second to none!” I know that’s right! Harps makes a strong case as to why she should be crowned Miss Spelman College. Repping Atlanta, Georgia, she must be doing her city and state proud!

Political science major on the pre-law track, Harps’ platform is called “Taking C.T.R.L.” A reference to SZA’s “C.T.R.L” (2017) album, Harps used the acronym for “Creating The Reality You Love.” Harps wants to make sure her fellow Spelman sisters can control their narratives as Black women, and not allow outside pressures to deter them from feeling like they can show up in the world as they want to.

Kayli Cooper encouraged folks to check her resume and sure enough, it is impressive! The powerhouse is the founder and CEO of GirlWell, a non-profit organization that serves under-sheltered teenage girls. Cooper has been featured in “Forbes 30 under 30" list, “Good Morning America,” and “Ebony.” Ok, we see you!

Cooper is a documentary filmmaking major with a minor in writing. Her platform is called Ignite. Cooper wants to serve as a reminder for her Spelman sisters that they already have the fire inside of them to pursue their passions and she wants to help ignite that flame, according to her Instagram.

“Trust me, I’m about to own it!” contestant Madison Mobley made known, and she does! Throughout her speech, Mobley energizes the crowd during her introduction and the crowd can’t help but show her love. She is fierce.

The English major’s platform is “Envision Her In You.” Mobley wants to help bring community and inclusivity to her HBCU sisters, ensuring they are affirmed at Spelman. Mobley wants her fellow students to feel valued no matter how they identify, where they come from, or what they want to pursue.

Tyler Dorsey says she is a “dream come true” during her introduction. Dorsey speaks with grace and though there is no further campaign video for her, it’s clear from the sounds of the crowd that she is a very worthy competitor.

The scholar’s platform is “Dream Without Limits.” Dorsey wants to create a platform that empowers and supports her Spelman sister’s fulfillment of their goals and dreams. Dreams is an acronym for devotion, restoration, empowering, academic support, mobilizing, and sisterhood.
