Miss South Africa gets a makeover
No Miss SA pageant this year as the contest gets a dramatic makeover….
As part of the extensive revamp, the new Miss South Africa will be crowned in March 2014, instead of December, which means that unlike previous years, she will get to reign in the year of her appointment.
Former Miss SA Melinda Bam has been appointed National Executive of Miss South Africa Pty Ltd joining the Miss South Africa team.
Bam – who made the Top 10 of Miss Universe last year - was recently awarded the title of the Sexiest Woman in the World for 2013 by the local edition of men's magazine FHM.
The changes are all part of a concerted drive by Sun International to grow the Miss South Africa brand and make it relevant for today’s young generation.
No Miss South Africa will be crowned in 2013 and the current Miss South Africa, Marilyn Ramos, who walked away with the title in December 2012, will reign until March next year.
Entries for Miss South Africa 2014 open on July 8, 2013 and close on August 31, 2013.
Entry forms will be available online from Monday, July 8, 2013 at www.misssa.co.za and www.facebook.com/MsSouthAfrica
