Reality star and model Naledi “Nale” Mogadime is hoping to do justice to the youth after joining the judging panel of Miss SA teen.
NALE: ‘THIS IS A BIG DEAL FOR ME’
Nale – who is known for starring in Big Brother Mzansi (#BBM) — is beaming with pride as she joins the judging panel for Miss SA teen.
“I look forward to doing them justice… This is a big deal for me. I feel like for the first time, I’m doing something that has nothing to do with popularity. We’re impacting the youth, we’re doing something really powerful,” she told Tshisa LIVE.
Nale actually dreamed of being a pageant girl herself. So, it is something that is close to her heart.
“This is something close to my heart because, at some stage, a young Nale also wanted to be a pageant girl. I will be vicariously living my dream through these ladies by being a judge is insane. I’m excited,” she continued.
So, what is Nale looking for in a Miss SA Teen candidate? She wants someone with a strong character.
“We need someone who has a strong character with self-awareness. Not only am I looking at basic judge criteria, but I’m also looking for the Kind of Miss Teen I wish I had when I was their age. A girl wise beyond her years,” she said.

“This is what’s crazy how life works. My face was out there but was not something people would notice until I went on the show. Bow they are able to put a name to the face,” she continued.
