Beauty queen Ramasedi off to Miss Universe pageant

Beauty queen Tirelo Ramasedi left yesterday for Las Vegas, United States of America (US), for the August 23 Miss Universe pageant, hoping to take the world by storm like Mpule Kwelagobe did on her debut in 1999.

No Botswana representative has made it into the top 10 since then, but Ramasedi has been oozing confidence on facebook, pledging to do everything to bring the crown home.

The lass will be only the fourth Botswana contestant in the Miss Universe finals, since Kwelagobe made history when she won the title in Trinidad and Tobago 11 years ago.  The only other contestants from Botswana have been Joyce Molemoeng in 2000, Mataila Sikwane (2001), and Icho Keolotswe (2004). Botswana was not represented in 2002 in Puerto Rico, and in 2003 in Panama.
