The new Miss SA, Lalela Mswane, says most people will be surprised to learn that she had a habit of sucking her thumb until she was 18 years old.

“I sucked my thumb for the first 18 years of my life and my teeth are perfectly straight,” Mswane laughed. “I just found comfort in it to a point where I was dependent on it and I couldn’t even fall asleep without sucking my thumb. I stopped after one day I realised I fell asleep without doing it and I didn’t die.”

Lalela Mswane supports her crown after she was crowned by 2020 Miss SA Shudufhadzo Musida, right, in Cape Town on Saturday.Mswane is also a ballet dancer and started at age nine. Her modelling career launched at 16 years old and she booked her first billboard a year later for DStv. “I was such a good girl and my mom was never called to school. I excelled academically, with dance and leadership wise. I always say I hope I’m blessed with a child like me.”
