ACTRESS REA MALATJI TO HEAD MISS WORLD SA’S PANEL OF JUDGES

The organisation has since revealed its panel of eight judges, including Rea Malatji. Confirmed reports have it that she will also head the panel.

Speaking to the media, Miss World spokesperson Rich Mkhondo said, “Rea was master of ceremonies at the Netball World Cup last year in Cape Town.

“She is a humanitarian at heart, passionate about alleviating poverty to empower the youth and has trained more than 200 youth and women in various communities.”

She has been trending against the news. After all, despite being a pharmacist by profession, the seasoned actress is not new to pageantry.

She was the first black woman to be crowned Miss Pretoria in 1999.

She also participated in several competitions in her youth, including Miss Polokwane, formerly Miss Pietersburg, Miss South Africa Northern Province, and Miss Premier Soccer League.
