Finalists on 'following' in Zozi's footsteps, changing role of Miss SA amid Covid-19

CEO of the Miss SA Organisation Stephanie Weil said with the impact Covid-19 has had on SA and the world, the organisers have given thought to the new role Miss SA will play under the new normal.

“The one beauty, and there are a few, but the one thing that I think has been bought into the real limelight is our ability to communicate with the broader audience using the powers of social media. So being able to still be a spokesperson ... doing it in an online way is going to be the way of the future and it's going to be how the representation and the representative has to work going forward.

Earlier, the organisation confirmed that the top three finalists would represent the country at the world’s three most prestigious pageants — the usual Miss Universe and Miss World pageants, and now Miss Supranational. Weil said of the decision to field a candidate to Miss Supranational was because the pageant spoke to the brand's “ethos and where we are” and allows a third person to make the country proud.
