“I look forward to doing them justice… This is a big deal for me. I feel like for the first time, I’m doing something that has nothing to do with popularity. We’re impacting the youth, we’re doing something really powerful,” she told Tshisa LIVE.

Nale had aspirations of becoming a pageant contestant herself. As a result, it is something close to her heart. “This is something close to my heart because, at some stage, a young Nale also wanted to be a pageant girl. I will be vicariously living my dream through these ladies by being a judge is insane. I’m excited,” she continued.
So, what qualities does Nale seek in a Miss SA Teen candidate? She is looking for someone with a strong personality. “We need someone who has a strong character with self-awareness. Not only am I looking at basic judge criteria, but I’m also looking for the Kind of Miss Teen I wish I had when I was their age. A girl wise beyond her years,” she said.
In the upcoming survival thriller Beast, Nale will co-star with English actor Idris Elba. “I wasn’t sure how I was going to achieve this, after allowing for things to come my way. I have been trusting the process. Going on Big Brother was a really big deal for me,” she said to the publication.
“This is what’s crazy how life works. My face was out there but was not something people would notice until I went on the show. Bow they are able to put a name to the face,” she continued.
