African Miss Universe contestants risk missing the pageant due to US visa restrictions
Miss Zimbabwe Rosanna Hall and a number of other African contestants are unable to obtain visas to travel to the 75th Miss Universe pageant in Puerto Rico, whose final will take place on November 24. Zambia has already withdrawn its contestant, while South Sudan rates its chances of participating as '50/50'. The reason is the US partial travel restrictions in effect since January 1, 2026.
