The 24-year-old is also a dancer and showed off her elegant ballet moves at the recent Miss Universe pageant in Israel.
Lalela's participation in the pageant was met with some criticism. Many felt that she should not have attended the pageant in solidarity with Palestinians.
Lalela revealed why she decided to participate in a lengthy post on Instagram.
"There is no greater time to shed light on issues affecting women, to choose courage over comfort and to be steadfast in my beliefs regarding the advancement of women and our rights. I view my participation in the pageant as a unique opportunity to not only do just that but to also be part of, and hopefully contribute to, a process of dialogue and peace," she wrote before leaving for the pageant.
She later said that she would have regretted not attending the pageant for the rest of her life. Lalela went on to be crowned the second-runner up at the pageant.
