Melissa Moyani (22) from Boksburg has captured hearts as Miss Glam World Africa 2025. Crowned on July 17 in Kochi, India, Melissa's journey was anything but smooth, but her grace, grit, and determination saw her rise above every challenge. From enduring a 7-hour flight delay and missing day one of the competition, to walking the runway with a sprained ankle, Melissa proved that true queens rise, no matter the setback. Even more incredibly, she overcame a life-threatening situation just weeks before her departure- yet still made it to the Top 6 on the global stage. Grateful and grounded, Melissa credits her success to a village of supporters: the Pegasus Organisation, DQ Watches, her medical team, the Miss Hotlegs South Africa platform, and her loving family and friends.
Melissa Moyani isn’t just wearing a crown—she’s wearing her story.
