Rwanda is a country which is stable, unified, clean, at peace and resolutely turned towards economic development after 1995 Genocide against Tutsi.
It’s a big pleasure and honor to be among the judges to select Miss France 2021 and I will be celebrating 20 years since I was crowned Miss France 2000 .
In 2000 after winning the Miss France crown, I received over 2000 letters of insults and death threats from supporters of FN, because to them I did not represent France .
