GEELONG pageant star Emilia Ramos has returned from competing in American with new titles.
The North Geelong five-year-old won a Talent Supreme category in a California pageant and Supreme Queen in Texas.
Mum Kacey Ramos said Emilia competed in the California Gold Coast Beauty pageant only hours after landing in America.
“We thought we’d just see how Emilia felt about competing after the long flight, so we hadn’t prepared but she wanted to compete when we got there,” Mrs Ramos said.
Emilia won the Californian talent title for completing a flamenco dance routine.

The pageant star won the queen title a week later at the Texas Universal Royalty National pageant, which featured in reality television’s Toddlers and Tiaras.
Emilia again won the talent section in Texas as well as the Sweetheart category and Outfit of Choice for a Katy Perry-inspired cupcake creation.
Mrs Ramos said pageant boss Annette Hill was “very supportive” of her daughter, joking about her social media alias, The Emilia Ramos.
“Every time Emilia came on stage Annette would say ‘Everybody welcome The Emilia Ramos’ and made a big thing about Emilia coming from Australia.
“Emilia loved it.”
Mrs Ramos said Emilia participated in Halloween festivities, visited to Disneyworld and attended a Justin Bieber concert as “holiday time” between pageants.
“Emilia’s dying to go back and compete next year after such a positive experience.”
Emilia signed autographs for fans at Geelong’s Steampacket Gardens this week.
