South Africa’s finest are taking over the US.
Amid the chaos that’s taking place in South Africa at present, some of the county’s most elite celebs have decided that rather than face our ongoing political struggles, they’d take over Los Angeles.
Taking place on 26 June in sunny LA is the BET Awards 2016, and Africa is especially excited for this event because there are so many of our stars represented at these awards, one of whom is WizKid who is up for an award this year.
The stars have already flown out of the country to record segments and inserts for the show set to take place on Sunday and they’ve got #BETAfricaLATakover trending on Twitter.
Check out all the shenanigans taking place overseas:
