  • She is the third South African woman to win the crown of Miss Universe. the first was Margaret Gardiner, a South African journalist, who won the title in 1978, followed by Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters in 2017. Tunzi is also the first black woman to win the Miss Universe crown since Angolan Leila Lopes won it in 2011.

  • She is on low cut and is a strong advocate of natural beauty. She believes and preaches the gospel of body positivity.
  • She is passionate about women rights, gender-based violence and empowerment, and committed to changing the stories about gender stereotypes.
  • She is not just another pretty face. She is a bookworm and graduated with a B.A. in Public Relations and Image Management from Cape Peninsula University of Technology in 2018.
  • She is also Miss South Africa, a title she won at the second attempt after failing to make the top 12 the first time she tried.
  • She entered the Miss South Africa pageant as a joke, to prove that she is the most beautiful Tunzi sister. She is second out of four girls in the Tunzi family.
  • She has a crazy sense of humour.
  • Here is the answer she gave when asked what young girls should be taught most:

“I think the most important thing we should be teaching young girls today is leadership. It’s something that has been lacking in young girls and women for a very long time – not because we don’t want to, but because of what society has labelled women to be. I think we are the most powerful beings on the world, and that we should be given every opportunity, and that is what we should be teaching these young girls – to take up space. Nothing is as important as taking up space in society and cementing yourself.”
