NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Two young women took home dazzling crowns Saturday night after being crowned Miss Tennessee and Miss Tennessee Teen in Nashville.
More than 50 young women gathered in Music City in hopes of winning crowns and scholarships in the Miss Tennessee and Miss Tennessee Teen competition.
After demonstrating their talents, interview skills and glamorous gowns, the Miss Tennessee 2025 crown and sash went to Miss Music City, Zoe Scheiderich.
Schedierich will assume the title and duties of Miss Tennessee from Carley Vogel, who also started as Miss Music City before being crowned Miss Tennessee in 2024.
Earlier this year, Vogel was second-runner up to Miss America. Per her biography on the Miss Tennessee website, Vogel is a senior at Middle Tennessee State University majoring in music business and minoring in music threatre. She has reportedly received over $45,000 from competing in the Miss America Opportunity as a state and local titleholder.
"I will never be able to express the depth of my gratitude, for every person who believed in me, every hand I’ve held, every mile I’ve traveled, and every lesson I’ve learned. This organization raised me. It shaped me into the woman I am today. And though I close this chapter with tears in my eyes, I do so with a full heart and a fire that will never go out," Vogel wrote in part in a statement shared to social media as she bid the title of "Miss Tennessee" goodbye.
Scheiderich was previously crowned Miss Nashville for 2024 (third runner-up and one of the preliminary talent winners), and Miss Memphis for 2023.
The following contestants were also recognized for reaching the top five in the Miss Tennessee 2025 competition and/or winning other awards:
- First runner-up: Miss Historic Broadway's Savannah Maddison
- Second runner-up: Miss Music Row's Bailey Guy
- Third runner-up: Miss East Tennessee's Eliza Faith Sanders
- Fourth-runner up: Miss Middle Tennessee's Jana Hahn
- Preliminary talent winner: Miss Nashville's Marissa Luna
Meanwhile, Miss Tennessee's Teen for 2024, Leela Beaty, passed down her title earlier in the competition. Out of 26 young women, Beaty crowned Miss Memphis' Analee Shaver as her successor.
Shaver reportedly plans to study communication science in college. Through her CSI, "Stand4Me," she encourages her peers to advocate for each other and stand up against bullying.
Among the contestants in the Miss Tennessee Teen pageant, officials said the following young women made the top five and/or won other awards during the competition:
- First runner-up: Miss Middle Tennessee's Teen London Everett Dendy
- Second runner-up: Miss Nashville's Teen Addison Stanfill
- Third runner-up: Miss Knoxville's Teen Layne Tweedie
- Fourth runner-up: Miss Historic Greenville's Teen Brooke Gosnell
- Preliminary talent winner: Miss Music Row's Bella Malone
The Miss Tennessee Scholarship Competition is a licensed state program of the Miss America Opportunity whose brand mission is “Empowering Women to Lead”. According to the pageant's website, Miss America and Miss America’s Teen local and state ambassadors contribute thousands of community service hours annually.
