The much-anticipated homecoming concert of Grammy Award-winning artist Tyla is around the corner, with South Africa and 43 other African nations gearing up to witness this musical extravaganza live on Showmax.
Set to take place on Saturday, January 18, the streaming platform promises an evening filled with glamour, rhythm and unforgettable performances.
Part of the celebrations includes the Tyla Red Carpet Experience, hosted by industry veterans Kat Sinivasan and Moozlie.
With nearly two decades of experience in presenting local and international events, the duo is poised to provide viewers with top-notch coverage and insider access to the night’s festivities, ensuring that no high-profile moment goes unnoticed.
Do you know why we love red carpet moments?
We believe that the allure of the red carpet lies not solely in its lavish fabric but in the stories it weaves.
Artists step onto this iconic pathway to showcase their fashion choices but also to express their identities and connect with their fans.
Every outfit, accessory and pose is a carefully curated narrative meant to captivate an audience eager to consume not just music but the personal brand behind it.
That said, for those who don’t know, Sinivasan, who first rose to fame through the reality show "Famous" in 2006, has made a name for himself as a global presenter.
His impressive roster of hosting experience includes red-carpet events for E! Entertainment Television, where he has interviewed A-list celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Victoria Beckham, and many others.
Excited to be part of this significant event, he shared, “I’m thrilled to be hosting the Tyla Red Carpet! Tyla is an absolute powerhouse of talent and creativity, with her captivating vocals and mesmerising stage presence.
“She’s not just an artist; she’s a force, constantly pushing boundaries and inspiring fans worldwide. Get ready for an unforgettable experience as we bring her energy and excitement to the platform. It’s going to be pure magic.”
Moozlie, who captured hearts after winning the MTV Base VJ Search in 2012, has also made her mark as an accomplished rapper, clinching a South African Hip Hop Award for Best Female Hip Hop Artist in 2018.
Her extensive experience on the green carpet, including co-hosting the Annual Earthshot Prize event, sees her ready to shine once again.
“As a pretty girl from Joburg myself, there is nowhere in the world I’d rather be! I absolutely love Tyla and I can’t wait to take SA music and culture to a whole new level with her”, she exclaimed.
Viewers can expect to see an array of famous faces gracing the red carpet on the night, including beloved cast members from "The Real Housewives" franchises, "Adulting” and "Youngins”, alongside various sports stars, musicians and artists rallying to support Tyla's monumental concert.
With the streaming service poised to broadcast her final homecoming concert live from the SunBet arena in Pretoria, excitement is at an all-time high.
To ensure a seamless experience, subscribers are encouraged to double-check that they have the latest version of the app and are encouraged to log in early to prepare for the festivities.
The red carpet stream will commence at 8.30pm so viewers are invited to “Push2Start” as the show unfolds.
Tyla has made a resounding impact on the music industry, particularly since her hit single "Water" propelled her to fame.
She has garnered accolades both locally and internationally, collaborating towards breaking records and elevating South Africa’s musical stature.
Looking ahead, Tyla shows no signs of slowing down; besides her South African tours, she is also slated to perform at the Coachella festival in April.
