#FirstThingsFirst - Culture and representation at the centre of Miss SA finalist outrage.
--:--
The Miss South Africa organization is speaking out in response to the comments made on social media about Top 16 finalist Chidinma Vanessa Adetshina. The popular finalist was reportedly born in Soweto and currently lives in Cape Town, and viewers of the show are questioning her nationality because both of her are reportedly non-South African. Chidinma advanced to the Top 16 of the national pageant and has since faced backlash.
