Miss South Africa (Miss SA) blessed us with images of her wondrous frame and for some reason, drew ire from South Africans.

The 24-year-old’s pictures of herself in a bikini, posed next to a swimming pool, on a hot summer’s day has ruffled feathers.

Some of the comments left beneath this post are too vulgar and repulsive to quote. However, the gist of it is, people were generally outraged by Musida‘s self-confidence.
Social media demands more from Miss SA
Immediately after the pictures landed on social media, people were divided in opinion about the conduct of a pageant queen. Some felt the nudes were a bit much and more was expected from the 24-year-old.

It might happen that my Diabetes is showing me flames, but I'm noticing mostly "NAKED" pics from our current Miss SA on the TL

Angilwi !!
Others noted the trend in how South Africans have not accepted Musida as their new pageant queen, often shaming her body and finding fault in everything she does.
All I can say is y’all are so mean. From the day she entered Miss SA you made her journey hell. So what if she wants to post her beautiful bikini pictures. Why do you love dictating how people should be. A lot of you here need to heal from your own insecurities.

Musida had not given the backlash any of her prized attention, at the time this article was published.
