Mr. Johnny Ray Lewis

Mr. All World Beauties Man of Distinction 2026-2028

​Johnny Ray Lewis, a 60-year-old Dallas, Texas, native, proudly serves as the National AWB Man of Distinction 2026–2028 for the National All World Beauties & Man of Distinction Pageant System. A dedicated community advocate, faith leader, and mentor, Johnny is committed to using his voice and influence to uplift others and inspire meaningful change.

Johnny graduated from Central High School in Omaha, Nebraska, and studied communications at the University of Nebraska at Omaha from 1983 to 1987. His interests include writing poetry, singing, songwriting, socializing, and volunteering throughout his community.

Service is at the heart of Johnny’s life and leadership. He volunteers with the DAIRE Activity Center, the annual Grace Project Women’s Symposium, and Healthy Positive Choices, an organization supporting survivors of domestic abuse. He also facilitates educational breakout sessions during men’s strength conferences. Johnny serves as a faith counselor at Union Church, a board member for Healthy Positive Choices, and the National Ombudsman for the National Association of Negro Business and Professional Women’s Clubs, Inc.

His platform, “If Not You, Then Who?”, casts a critical and compassionate eye on homelessness, addiction, and mental illness within families and communities. Through education, advocacy, and direct service, Johnny encourages individuals to recognize their ability—and responsibility—to become part of the solution.

Among his many accomplishments, Johnny was honored as the 2025 Community Service Awardee by the Greater North Dallas Business and Professional Women’s Club. He is also a recipient of Mental Health First Aid certification. During his college years, he made history as one of the first Black students selected as a candidate for homecoming king at his predominantly white university. He was also named first runner-up in the GQ U.S. Man of the Year competition for Nebraska.

As National Man of Distinction, Johnny looks forward to continuing his legacy of service, strengthening communities, and encouraging others to lead with compassion, courage, and gratitude.

His personal motto is:

“There is always, always, always something to be grateful for.”
