About a week ago a sublime young lady walked on stage and won the Miss SA title for 2021 at the Grand West Arena in the city of Cape Town. The 24-year-old named Lalela Mswane walked away with a R4 million prize package, which included the use of a fully furnished apartment in Sandton, a brand new Mercedes Benz C-Class Sedan for the year of her reign, and R1 million in cold cash. There are a lot of things which were discovered after the crown had been placed on her head. Mswane has attained a lot before being crowned Miss SA.
Here are five things you need to need to know about Lalela.
1. Lalela holds a Bachelor of Law Degree from the University of Pretoria which she acquired in record time during the year 2019.
2. Miss Mswane is a professional dancer who specialises in ballet dancing and started her career at a tender age of nine years.
3. Lali hopped into the modelling industry as a sixteen year old girl, and booked her first billboard a year later for DSTV. In 2020 she became the face of David Tlale’s fragrance named ‘Exotic’, and she is currently signed to Alushi Models.
4. Apparently the young lady sucked her thumb for eighteen years of her life which was comforting for her, and it was mentioned during an interview with Sowetan Live.
5. She is the daughter of the late Muntu Mswane who was a minister and diplomat born Eswatini and passed away in 2010 when Lalela was still thirteen years old.
When she was asked by the judges what is she looking for in a leader she replied that, ‘‘someone who is self-aware, accountable and encourages critical thinking, innovation and action, but most importantly prioritises the personal development of everyone in South Africa and she believes that a leader should possess all these qualities’’.
