Another hot pick for Miss South Africa 2009 is Precious Makgaretse.She is a full-time model who was a contestant on the third season of the reality modeling competition Revlon Supermodel, which aired on SABC3 from November to December, 2007.
Precious was also a model on the second season of Deal or No Deal. Prior to that she had been a finalist in the 2004 Miss SA Teen pageant.
With her mixed heritage of Greek (father) and Xhoza (mother), will she be the third Obama-esque contestant in succession to wear the Miss SA crown?
She is also best friends with Tatum Keshwar who in turn is good friends with Sonia Raciti who in turn is the head judge for the Miss SA pageant who's contribution to the final score at Miss SA is 40%. You can't go wrong there.
