THE JUDGES WEIGH IN
Du Randt expressed that she is delighted to be returning to the series.
“It’s such an honour for me. I just love this reality show because it really gives those taking part the opportunity to see what will be expected of them if they are crowned Miss South Africa. The challenges and tests they are put through during the course of the show is a true test of what will be expected of them,” she said.
While Kganyago also matched Du Randt’s excitment.
“It feels absolutely amazing and surreal to be a resident judge for Crown Chasers. It’s like coming full circle for me, having taken part in pageants myself. Being part of a show that celebrates and empowers women is something I hold very close to my heart. I’m thrilled and humbled to help guide these incredible contestants on their journey. I hope that I will be bringing a lot to the show including my own experience as someone who’s been in their shoes. I understand the pressures and the dreams these women have. I’ll be there to offer support, honest feedback and a lot of heart. My goal is to help each contestant find their true potential and shine as their authentic selves,” she expressed.
