BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Nov. 21 (UPI) -- Greer Grammer, the 22-year-old daughter of actor Kelsey Grammer and reality TV personality Camille Grammer, has been crowned 2015's Miss Golden Globe.

Every year, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association -- which presents the Golden Globe Awards -- chooses a second-generation talent to help out with the ceremony.

Greer Grammer is one of the stars of the MTV series Awkward. She takes over the Miss Golden Globe title from Sosie Bacon, the daughter of married film and TV stars Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick.

"We are delighted to have Greer Grammer continue the tradition and have her as our 2015 Miss Golden Globe," Hollywood Foreign Press Association President Theo Kingma said in a statement Friday. "She's following in her father's footsteps in becoming a standout actress and we can't wait to see what she does next."

"I am flattered to have been chosen by the HFPA for this year's Miss Golden Globe," said Grammer.

"It's truly an honor to be included in this experience that so many incredible men and women have been a part of," she added. "I didn't even tell my dad because I knew he'd tell everybody and it had to be a secret until the [announcement] party. I'm so excited. It's going to be a wonderful year and so much fun. I'm really looking forward to being on stage with [Globes hosts] Amy Poehler and Tina Fey because I'm such a huge fan of them both. It still hasn't really hit me that I will be up there with so many amazing people I have looked up to for so long."
