Some pageant enthusiasts from different pageant sites said that she has the potential to make it to the finals. A pageant expert from missosology.org said "Excellent choice! She's definitely Miss World material, but her sweetness is refreshing. I like her".
"Great choice for Angola! We can now see another Miss Angola rock the Miss Universe stage. She and Mauritius are the best African delegates so far. Congratulations!", one pageant enthusiast added. And here are some of the comments I collected:
"Welcome back to the semifinals, Angola. Leila Lopes can be Angola's first Top 5 placement in Miss Universe if given the right package."

"Leila Lopes can really pull a surprise....remember, Angola is the Brazil of Africa...and the ties of these two Portuguese-speaking countries are so strong...."
