American Show Lip Sync Battle Coming To Mzansi

Like the rest of the world, We are a big fan of these battles, but this show is going to bring it to a whole new level. It’s Lip Sync Battle; the pop culture phenomenon that’s sweeping the globe and now, it’s coming to MTV in Africa. Hosted by two-time Grammy Award winning hip hop icon and actor LL Cool J, Lip Sync Battle is based on the pop culture phenomenon of lip sync battling to an original track.

The show is co-hosted by social media maven and super model Chrissy Teigen. Over 10 episodes, the series features celebrities going head to head, lip-syncing to the song of their choice, all while battling for the coolest bragging rights on the planet.

MTV has teamed up with local broadcaster e.tv to produce a local version of Lip Sync Battle Africa. The local series will air on MTV (DStv channel 130) and sister channel MTV Base (DStv channel 322) before making its terrestrial premiere on e.tv. It will be recorded in Johannesburg and the 13 half-hour episodes will be broadcast from April 14.

The formula remains the same with vocal showdowns between top celebrities and entertainment figures, complete with dancers, wigs, costumes, props and tons of swag.

The two local hosts will be announced at a later stage.
