KHABODACIOUS WARMS UP MISS SOUTH AFRICA



K' inspired by the Ndebele Culture at the 2011 Miss SA pageant





Thanks to Mnet and Mzansi Magic for inviting me to the PALACE at SUN CITY for a weekend .... *I KNOW , RIGHT* !!!  I found myself taking a two hour drive to SUN CITY ... I must say, it was a WELL NEEDED trip, great timing... so I surprised my mommy and off we went !!!



K' Mommy and ous Nakedi Ribane



After thanking my "sweaty overheated" self for driving a BLACK JEEP WRANGLER , (great car) that attracts ALL the heat, we arrived safely ! Checked in at the PALACE and immediately , it came to our realisation... we had no choice but to accept being treated like QUEENS this whole weekend, and sure my mom and I obliged ... we had no problems with that, no problemos at all. lol!



K' with the lovely Sonia Booth



OK, let me get to the goodie bits, we were treated to great dinner on our arrival evening, what touched me the most was the amazing work that MNET CARES does, wow! I would love to be part of that project * and watch ... i will* simply because we are all passionate about the same things, helping and building our nation !! Thank you for exposing me to this, I Looooooooove it .



K' with the gorgeous Drum Magazine editor Nobukhosi

11 DECEMBER  "THE MISS SOUTH AFRICA PAGEANT" ... Wow, the production was great , stage ON POINT and the entire venue looked amazing! I did NOT anticipate such a great attendance though, simply because the MISS SA pageants weren't well marketed anymore and thus were not taken seriously by the public... BUT, *cue music* I know what changed all that , "THE BUILD UP TO MISS SA" Reality show ... *whoever came up with that idea, I WANT YOU* ... Even Mom agrees, not to the wanting , but to the great impact it made !!!

A big well done to the MISS SA team and of course our MISS SA 2011  "MELINDA BAM"  ...  according to me , she knew her story since day one. She just went to SUN CITY to collect her crown ...  Let this be a lesson to all of us , if its meant to be yours...GO COLLECT IT ! (I'm collecting mine ... watch)

Thank you for this memorable weekend.... of course mom and I couldn't resist the POOLS and we had to get these shots ... FEAST YOUR EYES....
