HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Last year, Miss Zimbabwe quit after photographs of the beauty queen posing naked emerged on social media. This year’s Miss Zimbabwe faces a similar scandal.
Organizers of the Miss Zimbabwe pageant say they are investigating Emily Kachote two weeks into her reign after photos that allegedly show her nude appeared on the Internet.
Pageant spokesman Tendai Chirau said this week that 25-year-old Kachote will be dethroned if the photos are authentic.
Kachote told H Metro, a Zimbabwean tabloid newspaper, that she suspected “these pictures” would emerge but “it happened a long time ago.”
She and other contestants signed contracts declaring they had never posed nude before the pageant and that, in the event of winning the crown, they would not pose naked during the yearlong tenure as Miss Zimbabwe.
