As Lip Sync Battle Africa enters its fourth week, MTV is rolling out its big hitters in the most intense, testosterone-packed face-off yet: Nigerian superstar Flavour and actor and TV star Maps Maponyane are the latest celebrities to shrug off their inhibitions.
The two finely-honed heartthrobs rise to the occasion, getting the most out of the comedy format as they posture, preen, and show off their abs, while dissing each other in comic mockery. Even D’Banj gets in on the act, eager to demonstrate his own sex god status, appearing with his shirt unbuttoned to the navel in a bid to counter the threat of the two warring idols.
Hosted by Pearl Thusi with colourful commentary from ‘koko master’ and Afrobeat star, D’Banj, Lip Sync Battle Africa has previously witnessed epic battles between Cassper Nyovest and Boity Thulo, Thando Thabethe and Lerato Kganyago and Jason Goliath and Tol A$$ Mo against Celeste Ntuli and Nina Hastie.
This episode of Lip Sync Battle Africa airs on Thursday, 5 May at 20:50 on MTV, channel 130 on DStv.
