The Miss Zimbabwe beauty pageant has seen its queen dethroned for the second consecutive year after a nude photo scandal emerged for crowned Miss Zimbabwe, Emily Kachote.
Emily, 25, lost the crown after photos of her posing nude circulated on social media.
The organizers of the event said Ms Kachote would not represent Zimbabwe anymore after she violated a signed agreement that requires contestants to swear of never having taken nude photos and not to take any if they go ahead to win the competition.
However, the 25-year-old model has defended her self, claiming that she had informed the event organizers of having posed for nudes before.
The beauty was to represent Zimbabwe in the Miss World beauty pageant to be held in China later this year.
Thabiso Phiri, won the same competition last year but lost the crown due to the same case as Kachote.
