Zozibini Tunzi is grateful as she was crowned Miss Universe two years ago.
The South African star also made history as the longest crowned Miss Universe.
Taking to social media, Zozi expressed excitement in a lengthy note.
“I can’t believe it’s been 2 years already. In this 2nd year of my Miss Universe crowning anniversary I am reminded of purpose. I’ve always known from a very young age that I wanted my life to count for something special that would be meaningful not only to/for myself but for others as well. I wanted to make a contribution, even if just a small fraction to the Universe. My heart swells with gratitude and pride whenever people from different spheres of life tell me that this win moved or touched their lives in some way because that is exactly what I hoped it would do.”
“I am so happy and humbled to form a part of a much needed magical shift in beauty, society and culture. A lot of work still needs to be done but I want to take a moment to thank those who came before us, those who are with us and the future generation for all the work that they have done and will continue to do in breaking these barriers and entering spaces that were not available to us before. We belong in every space we imagine ourselves in. Claim it!”
“As a celebration of this special day, here’s my heart in a message and the very first ever photo I took on my first day as Miss Universe 2019. Unbeknownst to me that I would go on to serve as the longest reigning Miss Universe in history. Thank you all for being by my side all of 525 days (yes I counted). Your continued love and support means the world to me. I cannot wait to write new chapters and open more doors with you all by my side still.”
