Even though Junkies try not to play favorites, Ashton Campbell makes it super hard to follow those rules…
Ashton is from a teeny-tiny town called Hindesville, Arkansas. There’s one stop sign and a population of only 75 people. And even though she grew up in a small town, Ashton discovered it didn’t mean she couldn’t dream big dreams. So, in small-town, big-girl fashion, Ashton decided to attend the largest university in the state and that she wanted to be Miss America one day.
Her first dream came true, thanks to the nearly $50,000 in scholarships she won through being named Miss Arkansas’ Outstanding Teen and Miss Arkansas. And, she was sooooooo close to achieving her second dream – finishing as the 2nd Runner Up to Miss America in Atlantic City.
And while she may have fallen short of her original goal, Ashton has not spent any time wallowing! She was extremely busy this year as Miss Arkansas, all over social media, and in our opinion, Ashton has set a new standard for titleholders in her state.
In fact, while we were preparing to write this post, we listened to Ashton’s original podcast and we fell in love with her all over again (You can listen to it for yourself at this link).
Told you it’s hard not to play favorites… Ashton’s just the kind of person others are drawn to. And fair warning – We’re guessing she’ll be a favorite of ours for years and years to come! 🙂
And now – who do Junkies think has the best chance at being named Miss Arkansas 2015?

Hi Jay!
Thanks for your message… We just had the list manager send you and email, asking you to “update your profile”. One of the best things to do is to add us to your address book – that way our servers will know it’s ok to send and receive mail between each other. We’ll also send you a separate email… Apologies for the trouble!
Hi I know it’s over ut I never recited the predictions for miss west virginia…would you be able to re send it to me??
Hi Jamey!
Just sent you a couple of emails… The first one is from our list manager, asking you to “update your preferences”. Please take a moment and respond to that email as it is the only way to ensure you will receive the newsletter. Also, it’s a good idea to add us to your address book as well – that seems to help too!
