Tafadzwa Zimoyo in BANGKOK, Thailand
Miss Universe Zimbabwe Lyshanda Moyas enters an important stage of the Miss Universe competition today as she takes part in full rehearsals in Thailand.
The rehearsals help contestants perfect their stage movements, timing, and choreography ahead of the preliminaries.
It is one of the busiest days on the pageant schedule, as all delegates work closely with coaches and production teams to prepare for the major stages ahead.
After today’s rehearsals, Lyshanda will face one of her biggest challenges tomorrow – the closed-door interviews.
This segment is very important as it allows the judges to meet each contestant privately and appreciate their personality, intelligence, advocacy work, and confidence. Pageant experts often describe the interview as the part that can make or break a contestant’s chances of advancing to the semi-finals.
Lyshanda says she is focused and ready for the coming days.
She said today’s rehearsals will help her warm up for tomorrow’s interview, where she looks forward to representing Zimbabwe with pride and sharing her journey with the judges.
Her schedule this week follows a strong appearance yesterday during the swimsuit fashion show held at the Columbia Aquaverse in Pattaya, where she performed alongside 79 other beauty queens.
Fans praised her walk, confidence, and overall presence on stage, with many Zimbabweans sharing her photos and videos online.
Support for Lyshanda continues to grow daily, with Zimbabweans voting for her on the Miss Universe app and sending messages of encouragement.
Many fans believe that Lyshanda is gaining momentum at the right time as the pageant enters its final stretch.
