Baltimore Ravens cheerleader Amanda Ross was crowned “Miss Baltimore” on Sunday night. She will go on to compete for Miss Maryland in February and potentially Miss United States.
Miss United States is separate from Miss America or Miss USA.
Ross is the first-ever Miss Baltimore. She graduated from Long Reach High School and is a senior at Morgan State majoring in physical education. She says she wants to change the nationwide perception of Baltimore.
“My ultimate goal is talk to schools about bullying and crime prevention and anti-violence campaigns so that people don’t just see [Baltimore] as having a high crime rate or drug abuse,” Ross said. “I want people to also see how much arts and diversity and youth excellence we have here.”
It is Ross’ first year as a Ravens cheerleader.
