The stakes have never been higher, and the glamour is unmistakable, Miss Universe Zimbabwe 2025 reaches its glittering climax tomorrow night at the opulent Harare Hippodrome, where one of nine dazzling finalists will not only walk away with a coveted crown, but also drive off in style behind the wheel of a Mercedes Benz C200.
The high-performance luxury vehicle, valued for its sophistication and power, adds undeniable prestige to the national pageant, reinforcing its growing reputation as a premier platform for Zimbabwean beauty and ambition.
Pageant kicked off with the preliminary round, setting the tone for what promises to be a spectacular finale tomorrow. The finalists vying for the crown, and the keys to the C-Class are Onesimo Nkomo, Samkhele Dhlamini, Charmaine Emmanuel, Chiedza Mhosva, Brenda Kadewe, Rumbidzai Muzopa, Annie Grace Mutambu, Talic Magaiza and Lyshanda Moyo
With months of preparation behind them, these young women will showcase not only their poise and beauty but also their passion, intelligence, and potential to be Zimbabwe’s next global ambassador.
Adding an extra shimmer to the occasion is South African screen legend Connie Ferguson, who jetted into Harare on Friday afternoon. The revered actress and businesswoman will serve as guest judge and guest of honour, bringing regional star power to the already dazzling affair.
Speaking upon arrival at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, Ferguson shared warm words for the contestants:
“It’s an honour to be invited to participate in the crowning of this year’s Miss Universe Zimbabwe pageant. An opportunity like this for the young girls who entered the pageant is huge.
“It’s always up to them what they do with the platform they’ve been given, but it’s a great platform for them to discover themselves.”
To aspiring queens across Zimbabwe and beyond, Ferguson left a heartfelt message: “Believe in yourself. This world can be so big and scary, but just be grounded and rooted in God.”
As the nation tunes in to witness the coronation of its next beauty queen, all eyes are on the ramp — and on that glistening Mercedes Benz C200.
