It’s that time of year again when the Miss Hooters International pageant takes place and a new queen is crowned.
And this season, blonde bombshell Emily Johnson has won the crown, surpassing last year’s champion Madison Novo.
She will also represent Hooters at various events throughout the year, as well as get some unique experiences.
But how much do we know about her?
Emily is no stranger to Hooters, having worked for the US restaurant company for six years.
This means that the stunning model from Jacksonville, Florida, has won the $30,000 (£24,000) prize.
Last year, she was crowned Hooters Girl of the Year, and she is a four-time Hooters Calendar Girl.
Emily, in addition to her beauty, has brains, having used the company’s tuition reimbursement program to pay her education toward a doctorate degree in occupational therapy.
Emily enjoys deep-sea fishing, kayaking, traveling, and golf in her spare time when she is not studying or working.
Talking about winning the title last weekend at the ceremony in Las Vegas, Emily exclaimed: “I honestly feel like I’m in a dream right now.
“After competing alongside this group of talented and beautiful women, I feel even closer to my Hooters family and extremely honoured to accept this title.
“I am extraordinarily grateful to represent Hooters and the nearly half a million Hooters Girls alumnae worldwide in the upcoming year.
“I’m looking forward to being an ambassador for the brand on a larger scale and participating in major events, activations and milestones.”
Emily’s charm and confidence in the interview, uniform and swimsuit rounds impressed co-hosts Sable Robbert, Miss Hooters International 2016, and Hannah Williams, a former Miss Hooters International runner-up, along with judges such as Original Hooters Girl Lynne Austin, Miss USA 2021 and former Hooters Girl Elle Smith.
Emily will be one of the faces of the Hooters brand for a year, contributing to marketing activities and special events, visiting restaurant openings throughout the world, and leading the crew in cheering on Chase Elliott, driver of the No. 9 Hooters Chevrolet, during NASCAR events.
The new title is guaranteed to get her additional online fans, despite the fact that she already has over 18,000 Instagram followers.
New admirers may be disappointed to learn that the blonde beauty is blissfully married – with her wedding hubby Bailey back in March.
