After she represented South Africa so well at Miss Universe, Bryoni Govender is getting ready to shine internationally once more, this time at Miss Supranational!
Global (12 April 2024)— Miss South Africa’s first runner-up, Bryoni Govender is reading herself to shine on the global stage once more after she made South Africa oh-so proud at the Miss Universe pageant. Now with more experience in her arsenal and Miss Supranational in her line of sight, Bryoni is ready to rock Poland.
“I am incredibly excited and honoured to have the opportunity to participate in the upcoming Miss Supranational competition,” says a thrilled Bryoni.
“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.”
Last year, the Gauteng-based attorney earned acclaim during the Miss Universe pageant and was part of the Voice for Change Top 10 Silver cohort. This, thanks to her ‘Her Way Out’ advocacy campaign inspired to empower women to access legal knowledge.
Of her Miss Universe debut, Bryoni explains that it taught her so much about confidence.
“It’s about owning your uniqueness and embracing it. I learned how to stand tall, speak my truth and carry myself with poise. The spotlight can be intimidating, but I realised that authenticity shines brighter than any spotlight.”
“As I step into the international arena once again, I carry with me the lessons learned. I know that genuineness, resilience and an honest connection with people transcends borders. Whether I win a crown or now, I’ll continue making South Africa proud.”
In thanking South Africa for all the love and support in her journey so far, Bryoni describes the experience as nothing short of heartwarming.
“To every person who has cheered me on, sent kind words or simply believed in my dream, thank you. You are not just spectators, you are part of this adventure.”
Miss Supranational is set to take place in Nowy Sącz, Poland on July 6 and we’ll all be rooting for her!
