family.
They have given me opportunities, and I am grateful.” Goals are important for Klancy. If she did not practice the discipline of setting goals, the courage to dream dreams and the willingness to work hard, her world would be very different. As it is, this 21 year old beautiful and talented pageant winner is well on her way to a successful, interesting life. She is a winner even without the pageants.
Favorite Kind of Feeling: “I like a feeling of well being, when I am nice and toned and my weight is where it should be. Clothes fit better then, too. I enjoy exercising. Right now lots of cardio exercises, but soon I’ll be working with free weights. Dance helps, too.” Favorite Outcome: Winning when there is competition; Succeeding when the challenge is a personal goal. “I love what I do—singing and dancing. I love competing.”
If given the chance, this is the way Klancy would like her world to look: Be a nurse.
Klancy has benefited enormously from her pageant participation and is an excellent representative of the pageant system. From her participation in pageants she has developed her voice and her singing repertory so that-- should Nashville beckon-she is equipped to respond immediately. She has cultivated an awareness of her body and its strengths and limitations and shared what she has learned with many of her students. Klancy has not allowed the problems sometimes associated with pageants to affect her participation. “Pageants,” she emphasizes, “are looking for well rounded contestants. They emphasize the importance of taking care of yourself, and communicating with everyone—from the governor to the children curious about your crown. They teach contestants discipline— self-discipline and behavior within the group. Pageants have been good to me and for me.
Have my own dance studio Perform, i.e. get to sing, on stage in front of millions of people Be Miss America from now until the end of time Have a large family Do it all perfectly That’s quite a list, but Klancy Johnson can make it happen and smile all the while. For starters, we’ll wish her “Good Luck” at the Miss Arkansas Pageant, Hot Springs, AR, July 17-20, 2013. Good Luck, Miss Texarkana 2013, Klancy Johnson.
