Angel Dust Management to manage Lerato Masemola's publicity

Published: 1 August 2012

Mrs South Africa Top 20 finalist, Dr Lerato Masemola, has signed with Angel Dust Management to manage her publicity campaign leading up to the Mrs South Africa finals on 6 October at Emperor's Palace.

"Through my participation in Mrs SA, I have realised that a large number of South Africans are not aware that this pageant exists. Gone are the days when pageants were reserved for single women without children. This pageant is an opportunity for married women to be part of a competition that offers a platform for us to reach more people and really give back to causes that are close to our hearts in this beautiful country'" says Masemola.

"It's so important for events to reflect and resonate with the people of our country," she continues, and adds, "I believe that the Mrs SA pageant is a great initiative for women like myself with families, to also experience the excitement of the competition and the joy of being able to help those in need."
