Either Melissa or Khaya will be South Africa’s next Idol. But it is your votes that determine the result. Regardless, it has been a long journey for both of them and they have made everyone tremendously proud.

Amidst the tension of the grand announcement, there will be entertainment galore. Without giving too much away, here is a bit of what you can expect: Toya Delazy, Zakes Bantwini, the former Top 8 Contestants, Freshlyground, last year’s winner Dave Van Vuuren and many more.

Voting lines remain open till Monday (1 October) 22:00. You can also vote online by clicking here.

Have you seen the promo?
