Below is the video of the Instagram Live chat between Miss Universe 2019 Zozibini Tunzi and 69th Miss Universe Official Footwear Provider Jojo Bragais last night. It was moderated by Designer Bessie Besana and lasted for a little over half an hour.

The four pairs of classic Jehza heels were shown by Jojo himself. As far as I know, all the candidates will be receiving the silver-colored one, plus a choice of a second pair from the remaining shades – cream, mocha or cocoa.
