Anele Mdoda is heading to the Oscars!
Anele from The Voice will be doing red-carpet interviews at this year's Oscars.
The countdown to Hollywood's most prestigious ceremony, the 91st Annual Academy Awards has begun, and this year, Hollywood will be graced by Host of DStv's reality show The Voice South Africa: Anele Mdoda.
No stranger to awards shows, the beloved radio and television personality will be flying the African flag high as she represents M-Net with a Red Carpet Special - a pre-show which will broadcast on M-Net Movies Premiere, DStv channel 104 at 20:30 CAT on Monday, 25 February.
The awards show itself will air live on M-Net Movies Premiere at 03:00 CAT on Monday 25 February, with a delayed broadcast in the evening of the same day at 21:00 CAT on M-Net 102.
With the who's who of La-La Land prepping their acceptance speeches and perfecting their potential losing faces, this year's hotly competitive Oscars are bound to be entertaining - and who better to get up close and personal with the stars than Anele Mdoda the hostess with the mostess?
“Hosting the red carpet for M-Net for one of the biggest awards shows in the world is an absolute highlight for me,” Anele said. “I have watched the Oscars every year and the most memorable moments for me were when Denzel Washington and Sandra Bullock won, and when Charlize won.”
“This year I look forward to celebrating with the Black Panther cast as they head in with seven Oscar nods,” the host of DStv's The Voice SA enthused. “We have to speak to Bradley Cooper and salute his directing for A Star Is Born, as well as his performance in it.
We must also get Spike Lee - who has an honorary Oscar but has his first ever nomination as director for BlackKklansman, which you can currently watch on Box Office.
And then we hope to chat to Mahershala Ali who was nominated for Green Book and of course Glenn Close for The Wife. We also can't forget about Rami Malek and Bohemian Rhapsody! And then of course, there's the fashion!”
Anele made her debut as host on M-Net's hit local reality singing competition The Voice South Africa on Sunday, 3 February, and wowed viewers with her passion, charm and energy.
A favourite among her fans, the radio and television personality has scooped up several awards, including a South African Film and Television Award (SAFTA) for Best Television Talk Show, Best Radio Presenter in the Best of Joburg 2018 annual survey and a Style Award. Anele also has an adoring social media following, and is a keen fan of movies and series.
