Ann Oradee Although she is past the age limit for beauty pageants herself, she is determined to realize her dream by becoming a strong supporter. "Nong Kaning" The 22-year-old molam star with a passionate heart, after winning the Miss Grand Udon Thani crown, is now competing for the Miss Grand 2026 crown. Ann revealed,
"I really enjoy watching beauty pageants. I became serious about it during the year of 'Ingfa,' watching Miss Grand all the time—even staying up in the morning watching live makeup sessions, sending gifts. I liked it and supported it. Then 'P’ Boy' suggested that 'Nong Kaning' should try because she has potential. So we talked it over and decided to try. I took care of everything because our makeup team is the same one that supports beauty queens. We invested heavily, sent her to classes, covered travel—everything was very serious. We managed all aspects and her attitude."
"Entering this contest, we aim for the crown and to bring pride to the passionate molam community and our family. Now we're waiting for votes and support. But she might not be very good at selling herself yet, so I told her to gain more experience and meet friends—that might help. As for the big stage, we’ll see each other there."
"Recently, fellow Miss Grand contestants often meet backstage. We’ve followed each other for a long time. Just recently, 'Cheraim' came to tell me she really liked the song 'She Serve'—it's very cute. She asked me to ask 'Ingfa' to look after 'Nong Kaning,' Miss Grand Udon Thani 2026, and to help train her. I believe seniors always have good advice and guidance for juniors. So, I remind 'Nong Kaning' to stay focused."
