Bridget is one of South Africa’s leading entertainers and is now a presenter and producer of Jacaranda FM’s weekday mid-morning show, The Workzone with Bridget Masinga.
Maps is considered one of Mzansi’s most stylish and sexiest men. Multi-talented as a TV presenter, model, actor, style icon, designer, businessman and philanthropist, he makes waves both locally and internationally.
“I think my journey with Miss South Africa, which began in 2002 when I was second runner-up and then subsequently as one of the hosts on The Road to Miss South Africa, puts me in the perfect position to have intimate knowledge of the expectations versus the realities of the title. I have a solid grasp of what it takes to succeed across multiple platforms and will be able to engage with the contestants from a position of familiarity of understanding their goals and dreams,” Bridget says.
So what will she be looking for in a potential Miss South Africa? “People must be able to relate to her. It’s important to me that Miss South Africa is rooted in who she is while still maintaining a connection with her peers.”
Her advice for those wanting to wear the crown in 2017? “Nothing beats being your authentic self, don’t try and emulate previous Miss South Africa title holders, figure out what makes you an individual and harness that quality to build something magical. Don’t be shy to stand tall in your light. I am hoping to meet truly dynamic young ladies who are out there doing great things!”
The Miss South Africa pageant takes place at Sun City at the end of March. For the first time in the history of the pageant, the winner will receive R1-million in cash as well as a car, an international holiday and other prizes in a package that exceeds R2-million. The finalists for 2017 will each receive a R25 000 cash prize.
