The magazine gives more light on what “Taking Up Space” mean to the model in her #COSMOxZozi edition. It also exhibits products based on beauty and fashion made in South Africa by South Africans.
Here is the Cosmopolitan’s caption on Instagram
Read more on her interview On rejection and waiting for her time to win the Miss Universe pageant
The truth about life is that you will hear “no” more than you will ever hear “yes”. People will shut their doors on you all the time, more than they will open them. I grew up with this mentality and my parents taught me that the world doesn’t owe you anything. They taught me to work hard for everything I want to accomplish. That is why failure, for me, is just a stepping stone to the next level – if they say “no” here, then try somewhere else. There’s something about timing that needs to be learnt. It was someone else’s time in 2017 – it was Demi’s time because she went on to become Miss Universe.
On what taking up space means
Own your power. Be ambitious. Show people in the room that you are capable of. Lift up your hand and shout as much as you can.
