no. It is grooming that is important. the Ambassador must uphold the clean-cut "Disney look" and remain consistant with the Disney brand and image.
the first Ambassador, Julie Reihm, was selected by Walt Disney in 1964 to serve during the Disneyland "Tencennial Celebration" in 1965. today, the ultimate decision is made by the Resort President. each October, all CM's are invited to the live announcement ceremony at the Main Street Train Station in Town Square.
the Ambassador(s) is(are) selected based upon who best reflects and promotes the Disney pholosophy and ideals and demonstrates the ability to carry on Walt's DREAM of making Disneyland a source of joy and inspiration to all the world.
