Hilton is rooting for Alex Jankovich, a Laddsworth Primary School and St Anne’s Diocesan College past pupil, who has entered the Miss KZN pageant which will be hosted by ANEW Hotel in Hilton later in March. She is currently in her third year studying for a Bachelor of Arts in Corporate Communications.Alex heard about the pageant from a close family friend who encouraged her to consider entering. She immediately saw the opportunity to use this platform to give back to underprivileged in society, while stepping out of her comfort zone as she has never before entered a pageant. Her hope is to earn the title and thereby become involved in a charity that deals with children who have been abandoned or children with special needs.
‘True beauty to me is someone who focuses on what is on the inside and not how you look on the outside, it is someone that is selfless in thinking and aims to help others positively. A person who shows true beauty doesn’t let material things define her.’ Says Alex.
