Kgothatso was in the running to becoming Miss SA in 2019 but Zozibini Tunzi took the crown that was later given to Sasha-Lee Laurel Olivier after Zozi won Miss Universe that same year, 2019. 

Kgothatso made it to the top 5 in 2019. She is competing again this year and South Africans are excited for her and if her determination is anything to go by, she definitely does not give up.

She took to Instagram to express what this opportunity to enter Miss SA 2021 means for her.

She said, "I am truly grateful to be given this opportunity once again. I came back because I am resilient and I believe in second chances. Failure to me means trying again and this time with experience.

"I want women to know that they are strong, worthy and capable of anything they put their minds to. To never let any circumstances determine their future. I want to be the voice and give them hope. For every young girl/ women to see me and know that anything is possible'

People are definitely happy for Kgothi and many have said that their votes are going to her.

In one of her posts on Instagram she said, "To any girl or woman who has given up on life or thinks they aren’t good enough, please remember that you are worthy. Remember that you have the power and you possess so much abundance this world has to offer. Please start looking at things in a different scope and be the change that’s needed- even if it’s for one person #modelwithamark
