Announced today as the first set of performers geared to rock the DStv MVCA stage on 14 March 2020, these artists had South Africa dancing throughout the festive season with  Amapiano and House hits, and now they are ready to bring the Ticketpro Dome down in collaboration with 1Life and Africa\u2019s  most-loved storyteller, DStv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DStv has pulled out all the stops to bring viewers a spectacular show that is aimed to honour and celebrate local stars and gamechangers across 11 different entertainment categories. Proudly presented by 1Life \u2013 and one of the most anticipated events in the local entertainment calendar \u2013 the awards will be hosted by award-winning TV personality and entrepreneur Minnie Dlamini Jones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ceremony will see a number of artists who dominated the music charts in 2019 performing some of their best hits. This year\u2019s \u2018Favourite Song of the Year\u2019 category is brought by JOOX in partnership with DStv. DStv gives JOOX VIP to DStv customers with active Compact, Compact Plus, or Premium subscriptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis ongoing relationship made our sponsorship of the \u2018Favourite Song of the Year\u2019 category a no-brainer.  We\u2019re big champions of local talent, and we can\u2019t wait to celebrate the evening with our list of incredible nominees and their fans.\u201d, said Gerjo Hoffman, Chief Sales &amp; Marketing Officer at Tencent Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Viewers can expect to see Jobe London and Mphow69 singing their number one record Sukendleleni, which has been certified platinum. Signed under rapper and producer JR\u2019s Feel Good Music label, Jobe London was undoubtably one of 2019\u2019s biggest breakout artists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also joining the lineup will be other performers who have had a huge influence on the Yanos culture in Mzansi including DJ BigSky, Luude Deejay &amp; Sbhanga. Their hit single Fire became an instant banger when it came out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Labantwana Ama Uber hitmakers Semi Tee, Kammu Dee &amp; Miano will be showcasing their talent &#8211; with over two million views on YouTube. One of Limpopo\u2019s finest stars, Makhadzi, continues to inspire many with her success story. The Matorokisi singer will be joined by Master KG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, no stranger to the local entertainment and music scene, multi award-winning musician and businesswoman DJ Zinhle, will also be performing. The DJ, who has been in the industry for over ten years, had a successful 2019 in both business and music. Zinhle and vocalist Rethabile Khumalo released one of the biggest songs last year, Umlilo, which they\u2019ve performed all over the country and they are now bringing all the fire to the DStv MVCA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The DStv MVCAs are voted for by the public, and the nominee who earns the highest number of votes wins the coveted The Ultimate Viewers\u2019 Choice in a hotly contested race that has previously demanded that the winner get over million votes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The complete list of nominees for the 2020 DStv Mzansi Viewers\u2019 Choice Awards are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE SONG OF THE YEAR (Brought to you by JOOX)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>De Mthuda &amp; Njelic \u2013 Shesha<\/li><li>Prince Kaybee ft Indlovukazi, Supta &amp; Afro Brotherz \u2013 Gugulethu<\/li><li>Sjava &#8211; Umama<\/li><li>Nasty C ft Rowlene \u2013 SMA (Vol. 1)<\/li><li>Kaygee DaKing &amp; Bizizi ft Killer Kau \u2013 Kokota<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE TV PRESENTER<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Motshidisi Mohono<\/li><li>Nomsa Buthelezi<\/li><li>Moshe Ndiki<\/li><li>Thomas Mlambo<\/li><li>Jub Jub<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE COMEDIAN (Brought to you by Kia)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Mpho Popps<\/li><li>Celeste Ntuli<\/li><li>Khanyisa Bunu<\/li><li>Skhumba Hlophe<\/li><li>Siyanda Maphumulo<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE RISING STAR (Brought to you by Kia)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Kabza De Small<\/li><li>Wiseman Mncube<\/li><li>Simthandile \u2018SimTiger\u2019 Tshabalala<\/li><li>Thato Moeng<\/li><li>Larona Moagi<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE RADIO PERSONALITY<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>DJ Fresh<\/li><li>Kgomotso Matsunyane<\/li><li>Siphiwo \u2018Spitch\u2019 Nzawumbi<\/li><li>Seipati \u2018Twasa\u2019 Seoke<\/li><li>Khathide \u2018Tshatha\u2019 Ngobe<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE ACTOR (Proudly presented by 1Life)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Molefi Monaisa<\/li><li>Bheki Sibiya<\/li><li>Presley Chweneyagae<\/li><li>Warren Masemola<\/li><li>Masoja Msiza<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE ACTRESS (Proudly presented by 1Life)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Dawn Thandeka King<\/li><li>Zola Nombona<\/li><li>Florence Masebe<\/li><li>Sindi Dlathu<\/li><li>Tsholofelo Matshaba<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE MUSIC ARTIST\/GROUP<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Prince Kaybee<\/li><li>Sjava<\/li><li>Sho Madjozi<\/li><li>King Monada<\/li><li>Dr Tumi<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE DJ<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>DJ Maphorisa<\/li><li>DJ Speedsta<\/li><li>Prince Kaybee<\/li><li>DJ Sumbody<\/li><li>Kabza De Small<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE SPORTS PERSONALITY (Brought to you by SuperSport)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Thembi Kgatlana<\/li><li>Percy Tau<\/li><li>Siya Kolisi<\/li><li>Bongiwe Msomi<\/li><li>Refiloe Jane<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>FAVOURITE PERSONALITY OF THE YEAR (Brought to you by Showmax)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bonang Matheba<\/li><li>Somizi Mhlongo<\/li><li>Anele Mdoda<\/li><li>Nomzamo Mbatha<\/li><li>Sho Madjozi<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DStv and Mzansi Magic are bringing Mzansi\u2019s biggest hitmakers to the Ticketpro Dome in Johannesburg for the 3rd annual DStv Mzansi Viewers\u2019 Choice Awards (DStv MVCAs).
