St. Louis, MO) – Twenty-five-year-old Joye Forrest has been crowned MISS MISSIOURI USA and will represent her home state in the 70th annual MISS USA competition on November 29, 2921 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. “Joye has accomplished more in her 25 short years than most people do in a lifetime,” shares her mom/manager, Sheila Forrest. Forrest began dancing at age 3, pursuing her dream her entire life, hitting a few “firsts” along the way. She was the first African American to win MISS TEEN MISSOURI 2017, received the Sharon Disney Lund scholarship (named for Walt’s daughter) and attended the California Institute for the Arts, the number 3 school for the arts in the world. Forrest graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, winning or placing in several California pageants along the way, including 4th Runner-up MISS CALIFORNIA 2017. Post-graduation, Forrest danced professionally as a Laker Girl for the Los Angeles Lakers, in addition to appearing in countless music videos and commercials. “I’ve never taken anything for granted,” says Forrest, who credits her mother and award-winning actor/choreographer/director/producer, Debbie Allen for encouraging her to always “go for it.” College gave Forrest the opportunity to spend more than a semester in South Korea, Ghana, Japan, Australia and Spain, working with different dance companies to teach dance – a universal language – to communities that needed more of everything.
