The social media personality said to online users:
"Do you know how much audacity you need to have to be a person like Mia Le Roux? Coming into this world with a disability, having to work 10, 20, 30 times harder than the people next to you every day because you have said disability.
"Having the audacity to say, 'You know what, despite everything I'm going through, I'm going to enter Miss South Africa,' and win."

"The fact that she had the audacity to put her life on the line, even though it didn't end up the way it was supposed to, that right there is a South African hero.
