Currently TruCam Ultimate is planning to host Miss & Miss Teen Sekgosese on the 16th of December. However they have already started with hosting auditions. On the 16 of June they have hosted auditions at The Look Community hall in Soetfontein village, Sekgosese area.

“The auditions didn't go the way we expected, however we managed to get 13 promising contestants”, said the 22-year-old Lebo Ratshijane, the founder of TruCam Ultimate.

Rashijane who is the 2nd Princes for Miss Mopani 2018 further told Sekgosese Insider that as TruCam Ultimate were not satisfied with the attendance of contestants because they know that there is a lot of potential in Sekgosese.

During the auditions contestants get lessons about beauty pageant and modeling in general such as how to behave as models.

“There is more to pageantry than walking on stage of which our community lacks information on, but we are here to fill in the gab”, she added.

She co-founded TruCam Ultimate with the 21-year-old Kamogelo Rapeulane both from Sephokhubje in Sekgosese. Their company’s main purpose is to motivate, empower, inspire and bring hope to the youth.

According to both founders of TruCam Ultimate modeling is not about beauty but the way one carry herself to the public and also the spirit of Ubuntu. They believe that modeling teaches one on leadership skills, how to behave as a leader and somehow brings hope to someone's life.

“We plead with parents to support and motivate their children to take part in this event,” she concluded.
