Lalela Mswane also made it to the pageant’s Top 3 at the 2021 Miss Universe, which took place on December 12.
During the pageant, Mswane was asked, “Why do people fear losing things that they do not even have?” to which she elegantly answered, “I think it stems from the fear of perfection, or pressures of the worlds and trying to seek for happiness that you don’t have.”

She added, “People tend to suffer from feeling discontent with what they have, so I think that we need to change our mentality. Attitude with gratitude should be something that we instil every single day.”
The first runner-up was Miss Supranational Thailand, Praewwanich Ruangthong, with Miss Vietnam Nguyen Huynh Kim Duyen as the second runner-up. Kenya’s Roleen Shareh and Mauritius’ Alexandrine Belle-Etoile made it to the top 12.
