When Zozibini Tunzi of South Africa was crowned Miss Universe on Sunday, it marked the first time black women have simultaneously held the top titles of four major beauty pageants.
Media outlets jumped on the news and many on social media celebrated.
Some said that Ms Tunzi, Cheslie Kryst (Miss USA), Kaliegh Garris (Miss Teen USA) and Nia Franklin (Miss America) represent a new age for beauty pageants, one of diversity and inclusion. Ms Tunzi has been especially praised, with her dark black skin and short natural hair.
Even Miss USA 2016³²ÀÚ·¹Çø®Ä«»çÀÌÆ®=³²ÀÚ·¹Çø®Ä«»çÀÌÆ® Deshauna Barber shared a video on Instagram of her reaction the moment Ms Tunzi won.

"If you come from a group½ºÅ²¿¤¸®Æ®=¶óÀÌÇÁ½ºÅ¸ÀÏ that's rarely under-represented, it's hard to understand what representation means," she said.
