Exclusive Q&A - Mr Gay South Africa 2010, Francois Nel

It's finally here...

...Mr Gay South Africa, Francois Nel

The newly crowned Mr Gay South Africa 2010, Francois Nel is (so much) more than just a pretty face...

Face it South Africa, this is a perfect all-round package and it's no wonder the 28-year old make-up artist and hair stylist from Centurion took the coveted title!

The GLD recently chatted exclusively to Mr Gay South Africa 2010...

GL: Congratulations on your win, you made a lot of South African's very proud! Apart from what we read online and newspapers, who is Francois Nel?
FN: Thank you, and Thank you South Africa for your inspirational support. Dreamer! I'm a big dreamer, energetic, sporty and music lover. Busy body, caring, workaholic, perfectionist and an eater, love food! Luckily I love exercise too! I always enjoy a good dance, a good book, beautiful gardens, nature and animals. Always interested in Art, and my fellow human being.  
 
GL: What is an average day in the shoes of Mr Gay South Africa?
FN: It always starts with coffee, black, a tea spoon and a half. It is a privilege, yesterday I spent the morning on a client's wedding, a day when love is celebrated. Then I was off to the opening of the new Resthill Frail Elderly Care Centre, where we donated a few litres of paint thanks to Plascon. I'm quite excited to get involved in another charity project there as they are busy with their garden. The evening we spent some leisure time together. This morning I'm going swimming.


GL: What do you think is the most important strength that you bring to the title?
FN: Ambition. I am very excited to be a part of a platform that I hope will bring people together. South Africa, is a plethora of cultures, views, people and societies and after international events the world is watching our beautiful country. We have a constitution that protects us and our different sexualities. As a fore runner in a true democracy where everyone has a voice, I am excited to be a part of the fight for equality and human rights and have a few events in mind already.

GL: If I gave you an Elephant where would you hide it?
FN: I won't hide it, hopefully it will be tame and I can pet it!

GL: The burning question on behalf of all the boys - are you in a relationship?
FN: I am in a loving relationship.

Beauty and brains!

Francois will represent South Africa at the Mr Gay World competition to be held in Manila, Philippines next year March. According to reports South Africa might just host Mr Gay World in 2012 - how awesome!
