New Miss Georgia getting ready for Atlantic City

GAINESVILLE - The new Miss Georgia - Amy Mulkey of Gainesville - says her life has changed "enormously" since she won the title a week ago.

"It's kind of been a whirlwind since then," Mulkey said. "Directly after the pageant, you start doing interviews, there's a big reception..."

Mulkey, in her first local media interview since she was crowned, commented on Friday's Martha Zoller Show on WDUN NEWS TALK 550.

Mullkey said "This is a dream come true, an incredible opportunity. At the same time, you have to go with the attitude 'yeah, I could possibly win Miss America' and you go for it, but at the same time, I wouldn't be disappointed to return to (the state) and be Miss Georgia for a year."
