Miss SA goes to Israel: All you need to know

Published: Nov. 15, 2021, 3:43 p.m.

Local beauty pageant organisers have been adamant that the recently crowned Miss SA Lalela Mswane should go. "It has proven difficult to persuade the Miss SA pageant organisers to reconsider their decision to partake in the Miss Universe event," the arts and culture ministry said in a statement. The government therefore "withdraws its support" following the organisers' "intransigence". The pageant is slated for Eilat, Israel on December 12.
