SA’s beauty queen Gugulethu Mayisela becomes the first Black woman to win the Miss Teen World crown in Ecuador.

The 18-year-old Gugulethu Mayisela was crowned as Miss Teen World 2022 on October 19 in the city of Guayaquil, in Ecuador.

Marina Wang, Canada, and Estrella Cisneros, from Mexico, have taken up the first and second runner-up positions respectively.

Before bringing home the Miss Teen World crown, Gugulethu Mayisela, won the title of Miss Teen Earth Air in October last year.

SA beauty queen Gugulethu Mayisela made history by becoming the first Black woman to win the Miss Teen World crown.

This is South Africa’s 5th crown in the world competition (the previous winners to have won the title were Kaylan Hamel, Miss Teen World 2003, Noele Joubert, Miss Teen World 2004, Charlotte Smith (2005) and Tayla Robinson, who was elected Miss Teen World 2010).

Gugulethu Mayisela, Miss Teen World 2022, joined an impressive roster of black women who won some of the world’s most prestigious teen pageants: Stefany Calero (Curaçao) Miss Teen Intercontinental and Frany Delgado (Ecuador) Miss Teen Supranational.

Mayisela, who is in her final year of high school, said she would like to study accounting science, and be in the fashion industry and strut the runways. “I hope to join Miss South Africa and be crowned Miss Universe one day,” she said.

We congratulate Gugulethu Mayisela, Miss Teen World, and wish her a great year of reign.
