Reigning Miss South Africa Sasha-Lee Olivier will introduce the Miss South Africa 2020 Top 15 live on Instagram tomorrow (Wednesday, June 24) at 19h00 in a virtual public reveal.

This was announced tonight on social media by Miss South Africa Organisation CEO Stephanie Weil who also disclosed that the public will now be able to vote for their favourite semi-finalists and determine who moves forward to the next round.

Weil also said that the Miss South Africa 2020 pageant finale will take place towards the end of the year. It had been announced earlier that the 62nd edition of Miss South Africa would take place in the first week of August, during Women’s Month. As always, the final show would have featured a number of top South African entertainment acts and designers and would have been broadcast live on M-Net and Mzansi Magic. The only difference is that there wouldn’t have been any live audience.

Continues Weil: “We have been asked to push back the pageant as far as possible this year to see what changes there may be in lockdown restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We can’t go later than mid-November because we have to choose Miss South Africa 2020 and two runners-up – all of whom will represent South Africa on the international stage.”

Weil said they were delighted to be introducing the Top 15 on a virtual platform: “We usually have a function where the semi-finalists are revealed to the media and a group invited guests only. However this year, anyone who wants to take part can do so by simply going to the Miss South Africa Instagram account @official_misssa where Sasha-Lee will be unveiling and talking live to the Top 15.”

Voting for Miss South Africa opens on Thursday, June 25, at 09h00 and closes on July 16 at 23h00. The Top 10 will be announced at the end of July.
