Miss south africa is more of a women empowerment platform , like they take that seriously they don't care how the girls look like and walk ,that's what sets them apart , they are looking for an inspirational ambassador, and i love that, so i honestly dont care if they win at international pageants they re honestly deserving
Miss SA is an outstanding pageant production. It's also key to showcase local designers and music and it also acts as a runway show even though the focus is not on the technicalities
I hope she will excel at Miss Universe.But with her unpretentiousness,her kindness and her natural way to connect with people she would also be a perfect Miss Supranational.Luis,she has to be careful walking down the stairs because her deafness affects her balance.
Miss South Africa is an empowerment platform for ambitious young South African women. Honestly, Miss South Africa is among the best national pageants in the world. They are also the best speakers in my opinion.
Indeed what a powerful answer Mia and Nompumelelo, your answer took it home. All South Africans heard and understood exactly what you meant. Dzam ladies you look hot!
The person who designed this stage should never be hired by any pegeant ever again. So many stairs. The girls couldn't showcase their walks. They were too worried about falling.
Again! It's Miss South Africa. It's not about how you walk, turn or how you show your body! It's how you can be transformational leader! The stairs gave us the wow factor, well we had two gentlemen helping them for safety. What was important there was the Showcasing of the designer who sponsored to showcase their gowns! So, the stage was marvellous I swear. Mia she will show you her walk on Universe stage don't worry. But until then she is Miss South Africa to serve for South Africans.
Thank you Luis for your reactions to Miss SA ! You are so spot on : you’d be an awesome judge in future competition’s! Thank you for being such an avid fan of Miss South Africa & sharing x
This is what I love about you Luis, you are so on point - either that, or we have the same thinking lol yes, totally agree Miss SA brings out the diversity and every single person is just so natural and that's what I appreciate about it! ❤
Your positive, but still in depth review is so valuable and uplifting.. As you said the organizers looking for rough diamond and the cutting, scrubbing, polishing and buffing is only starting now for the big events.
I have a theory about why there isn’t much stage performance you get at Miss SA. Very differently from other pageants, it is free to enter. This opens it up to everyone in the country regardless of pageant experience. The candidates are shortlisted based on how they do on interviews. They certainly need to do more on stage training on their top 30. But unlike other pageants, it’s very accessible to almost everyone. Regardless of whether u can walk or not because everything is all expenses paid.
Great review, Luis! The full show was incredible, and all the ladies were shining throughout. If people only saw these YT bits, they miss out on a lot of context, because so much was shown of their causes and growth throughout Crown Chasers. Miss SA is not only about the crowning night, it's a long build-up of being challenged and pushed and moulded into a deserving representative. Mia had a tough time on CC, but persevered. It's her strong character, struggles throughout life, natural poise and solid cause that got her the crown. Her work to be done is primarily here in South Africa, she said in interviews afterwards that she has many plans and little community projects already underway. That's what counts, not walking on a glitzy stage a few times or wearing swimwear. Going to the international stages is a bonus, which she will be trained for. I actually hope that Mpumi goes to Supra next year, she will be a stunning competitor! Ontshi unfortunately never made top 3 during the CC episodes, but she was my final no 3, after Mpumi and Mia. I had Onalenna up there throughout CC, but she struggled towards the end with consistency. I hope Ontshi comes back in two years, or even enter Miss SA World.
Mia said in an interview yesterday that she can hear people speaking if there isn't a lot of background noise... but she also lip reads... So she might struggle a bit with music especially if there is other sound amplified like applause and possibly the singing
She also said she has a way of tuning out everything and focusing on what's important. Which is a testament to how she such a strong woman, because she can still succeed in spite of obstacles she has to go through. She's strong, she's focused. And above all, she has an important story to tell, and much impact to have in the universe/supranational
I enjoy your reviews I’m so proud of Mia and I am looking forward to her advocacy this year as it will really really inspire and help us people living with disabilities, I’m not worried about Miss Universe although I know she will definitely also use that platform to inspire differently able ppl from around the world by just being there and I know she is a strong capable lady she will ace it , my biggest excitement is her advocacy and the biggest contribution to the differently ables communities in South Africa
I cannot, for the life of me, identify why our pageant does not really focus on the technical performance levels. If you look at the pageants for demi and zozi - runway skills were important. Queen lali lalela was also a force on the runway! If you look in the comments under posts about the contestants at prelim swimsuit walks - you would see folks asking why the contestants cannot really do pageant walks these days. I wish they would encourage the contestants to do some pre-pageant runway prep because then on the national stage it would be a flaming moment.
I can only share what Miss SA org posted on their RUclips channel. Anything else would be a copyright violation as the full show is behind d a paywall 😕
Mia's performance was below average. The swimwear and evening gown performance wAs very weak. She started sparkling and became a force by the Q&A portion
@@User.777.1 .... Maybe if they train her well and enough for runway performances (SS and EG), then she will be okay at miss universe. However, I feel like judges were a bit biased towards inclusivity as well. Honestly, Nompumelelo and Ontshiametse were on their A+ games. I guess the stars were not just aligned for them, which makes Mia a right Miss SA as well because she has a very queenly and natural aura.
I think her performance fits in the Miss World Pageant but I think Nompumelelo has that quality for miss universe. But anyway I am happy for Mia and I know she will represent SA very well hopefully get the top 5 spot

Its Great Mia won. I hope we dont have a chidimma like drama in years to come. I feel the atmosphere was different in the country this year i think Mia would have gotten 2nd or 3rd spot but the judges had no choice im no saying Mia doesnt deserve it i believe she does but the atmosphere dictated that it had to be her regardless of the performance of other ladies. But congratulations Mia
Our beautiful Miss SA not based on the whiteness nor blackness! Very special with a spirit of Ubuntu representing our Rainbow Nation 🇿🇦 Not Xenophobia! O ratiwa ke rona! Wena ungena phi Nigeria?
I think Mia is very deserving of the crown. It’s Ironic that the same people complaining that a white woman won Miss South Africa, and implying Racism, are actually the ones that are RACIST. England, France, Germany, Iceland, Netherlands, Belgium, USA, etc… all have had black representatives at Miss Universe, and I’m sure it was very acceptable by these same individuals. Let us please refrain from playing “The Race Card.” It’s old and tired.

True they should host MU ❤
Miss SA should host MU! The Miss SA production is top tier ❤
I was thinking about this. I’d love that!
I hope she will excel at Miss Universe.But with her unpretentiousness,her kindness and her natural way to connect with people she would also be a perfect Miss Supranational.Luis,she has to be careful walking down the stairs because her deafness affects her balance.
Mind you; she’s doing it in heels. Kudos to her. She had a stellar performance
True, hearing loss effects your balance, I too am living with deafness and there is no way I would not have looked down the stairs for balance.
Miss South Africa is an empowerment platform for ambitious young South African women. Honestly, Miss South Africa is among the best national pageants in the world. They are also the best speakers in my opinion.
Louis as South Africans we are very opinionated and we are just not afraid to speak our mind! (Nompumelo)
Indeed what a powerful answer Mia and Nompumelelo, your answer took it home. All South Africans heard and understood exactly what you meant. Dzam ladies you look hot!
Perfect top 2
We've had 5 black winners in a row (and deservedly so) so saying "of course we'd crown a white woman" holds no water.
The person who designed this stage should never be hired by any pegeant ever again. So many stairs. The girls couldn't showcase their walks. They were too worried about falling.
Again! It's Miss South Africa. It's not about how you walk, turn or how you show your body! It's how you can be transformational leader!

Luis that Ontshiametse was PERFECT🩷🩷🩷
She toped every one in top 5.. She must come next year for a crown
she's still young, let her grow maybe when she's 26. alot of potential that one.
@@winstonparkies7142 she can only enter after 2years unless they change their policy
@@winstonparkies7142Yeah she did very well, but I think her performance in crown chasers was the reason why she couldn’t advance
Your positive, but still in depth review is so valuable and uplifting.. As you said the organizers looking for rough diamond and the cutting, scrubbing, polishing and buffing is only starting now for the big events.
My money was on Ontshiametse but I'm pleased about Mia. She needs to work on her walk though, which the Miss SA team will see to.

Hi Luis. I know Mia struggles with her balance she has said before. It’s common in people who have cochlear’s and complete hearing loss 🫶🏼
Thank you for shutting down the noise and give an objective reaction...We are proud of Mia, our new RSA Queen.❤
Mia's answer was just powerful gosh!!!🔥
Thank you Luis for this reaction ❤❤❤
Thank you, beautiful Luis ❤
I was waiting patiently for your reaction lol
We have freedom of speech in south africa 😂😂😂😊
She is beautiful. Love her hair
Whow. Thanks your opinion towards our country. Yes Mia can do very good at miss universe I believe.

You really call thier names so well. More than african ppl
Thanks for much
I always look forward to your commentary ❤ spot on
Was waiting for your reaction 🤗
There's too many stairs and small stage for them to walk properly
Dankie Louise... 🥹👏🏽💖
Mia Le Roux (pronounced Ler Roo )
Please react to Miss grand india 2024❤
Luis, where are you watching Miss SA 2024?
Or anyone could answer this please 🙏
It was live on the miss South Africa app.
You missed the top 5 question and the mission statements.
I can only share what Miss SA org posted on their RUclips channel. Anything else would be a copyright violation as the full show is behind d a paywall 😕
i hope south africa would host the 2025 miss universe edition.
17:01 "Let's hear it, Mia." 😢😢
Apparently Mia couldn’t hear the music 😢 she did well for someone who struggled with tune and sound
We love u Louis
❤❤❤
Mr Handsome ❤❤❤❤❤
Please Miss Nigeria 🇳🇬 is tomorrow. Talk about it please
Pls review ms grand india❤
But where is the Top 5 Q and A?
You only posted the Top 3.
I was asking the same thing😂
Mia's performance was below average. The swimwear and evening gown performance wAs very weak. She started sparkling and became a force by the Q&A portion
Unfortunately my dear youre right
I belive we not being realistic
She isn't gonna win

I speak under correction but I am not sure how much Mia is able to 'hear' of the music beats with her. Ignorant here please forgive
She hears sounds through her cochlear implant.
She apparently struggles with music, she wings it and hope the best. Atleast thats what she said on MetroFM.
@@giuseppeditroliothe applause, music and shouting of presenter affects the hearing as the implant bring it as 1 chaotic sound... Balance is also affected... But she handle it well...

Chelsea secured the Top 5 ❤
Once again the best answer didn’t win I don’t see the point of Q&A if the best answers doesn’t win
Its Great Mia won. I hope we dont have a chidimma like drama in years to come. I feel the atmosphere was different in the country this year i think Mia would have gotten 2nd or 3rd spot but the judges had no choice im no saying Mia doesnt deserve it i believe she does but the atmosphere dictated that it had to be her regardless of the performance of other ladies. But congratulations Mia
Miss S.A is going to have to work on her walk alot. She's beautiful and a good speaker but cant perform at all
Our beautiful Miss SA not based on the whiteness nor blackness! Very special with a spirit of Ubuntu representing our Rainbow Nation 🇿🇦 Not Xenophobia! O ratiwa ke rona! Wena ungena phi Nigeria?
I think Mia is very deserving of the crown.
It’s Ironic that the same people complaining that a white woman won Miss South Africa, and implying Racism, are actually the ones that are RACIST.
England, France, Germany, Iceland, Netherlands, Belgium, USA, etc… all have had black representatives at Miss Universe, and I’m sure it was very acceptable by these same individuals.
Let us please refrain from playing “The Race Card.” It’s old and tired.
The USA is not a majority white country ! Try again
And there were 5 black women before Mia, 1 coloured before them
