Bryoni Govender will be the official South African representative at the 2024 Miss Supranational pageant.
The 15th edition of Miss Supranational to be held in Poland on July 6 will see Andrea Aguilera of Ecuador crown her successor at the end of the event.
Govender is delighted to be the South African representative at this year’s pageant.
“I am incredibly excited and honoured to have the opportunity to participate in the upcoming Miss Supranational competition. I have been working tirelessly to prepare myself both mentally and physically for the competition. These preparations have included intense training sessions to enhance my physical fitness, catwalk, poise and stage presence. I have also been working with top-notch trainers to improve my communication skills and develop a strong and impactful voice. I always say that the most important thing for me when preparing for any competition is to have a positive and healthy mindset and to have put in all the necessary work,” she reveals.
Govender also represented the country at the Miss Universe Pageant in November last year where she made it into the top 20.
She adds that she has been overwhelmed with the backing she has received since she was named runner-up at the Miss South Africa 2023 pageant.
Former Miss South Africa Lalela Mswane was crowned Miss Supranational in 2022.
The competition began in Poland in 2009 with 40 countries competing. It now has over 80 contestants from all continents.
South Africa joined the pageant in 2021 where Miss SA runner-up and medical doctor Thato Mosehle made history as the first contestant.
