AWARDS 28-year-old Mia le Roux was crowned Ms South Africa on Saturday night (10 August). According to Mia, this is why she entered:" As a deaf woman with a cochlear implant, I represent a community that often goes unheard. I am here to prove that, despite being differently-abled, it has not affected me in terms of what I am capable of." 28-year-old Nompumelelo Maduna, who made the Top 3 in 2019, was runner-up.

What’s your guilty pleasure?

Sour Jelly Tots. I do not indulge often, but when I do, it is so good!

My happiest time was as a toddler during December in Witsand. My parents always told us magical stories about Witsand. I felt like I was in a fairytale!

Mia:
Unrealistically, to sing. Realistically, to dance beautifully.

My most treasured possessions are my dogs.
 
What do you value most in your friends?

I value grace, showing one another grace and understanding that grace comes in many colours.

In life it is not important to necessarily be strong but to feel strong.
