Johannesburg – The contestants for the 2020 edition of Mr South Africa have been revealed.
Pictures of 95 local men who are in the running to walk away with the title of Mr South Africa 2020 have been shared on the organisation's official Instagram page.
In early 2019, the pageant caused quite a stir on social media when the unveiling of the contestants was met with negative feedback from South Africans who voiced their opinions on the appearance of the top 20 finalists.
Speaking to Channel24 at the time, Mr SA CEO, JP Robberts, said that his goal was to try and change the perception of pageants. "You don't necessarily need to be a male model to be a model male," he shared.
The Mr South Africa 2019 pageant was held in Cape Town, with Heinrich Gabler walking away with the crown.
