Who will take the crown? Meet the Miss SA 2024 top 11 finalists [PICS]

Miss SA 2024 will be crowned at Sun International’s SunBet Arena in Pretoria on Saturday, 10 August.


Following the recent Crown Chasers episode, only 11 beauty queens remain to compete for the coveted Miss SA 2024 title.

However, this weekend’s final episode of Crown Chasers saw Kirsten Khan and Kebalepile Ramafoko in the bottom two.

South Africa needs to vote to put Ramafoko or Khan through to the top 10 and final place.

Speaking about her journey so far, Ramafoko said she learnt a lot throughout the competition.

“I have learnt three invaluable lessons that reflect the character I strive to embody and hope to impart to young girls facing their own challenges. Firstly, perseverance is key. If you have a dream and are passionate about something, life will throw obstacles and challenges your way to test your faith, belief, and commitment to the process.

Khan said: “I was fortunate to have had tremendous assistance from the Miss South Africa Organisation as they provided me with a platform from where I can be a voice and advocate for a cause that is deeply personal and close to my heart.”

The official Miss SA top 10 will be announced at the live finale at Sun International’s SunBet Arena in Pretoria on Saturday, 10 August.
