There's dozens of records that are broken season by season on Idols SA. From incredible voting numbers to spectacular viewership, constantly breaking barriers is nothing new for Mzansi's most loved singing competition. But there's one record in particular that's currently standing tall above the rest, and that dear Idols fans is whether Cape Town will pull off a 3 Peat!
The term 3 Peat for those who may be hearing it for the first time, refers to the astounding feat where an individual, team or organisation succeeds in achieving three major wins in a row. Not to be taken lightly, it's something only the best of the best have ever achieved. So clearly it's only right that after giving the world Paxton then Yanga, all eyes are once again on Cape Town to see if they can conquer once again!
Cementing the Mother City's name in the history books won't come easy though, Durban, Pretoria and the Telkom Pop-Up auditions have all brought a fierce fight to Kaapstad's door. To make it even more competitive, this past Sunday the Cape of Good Notes struggled to find its voice as a string of wooden mic contestants left things shaky for the city. Not all hope was lost though as phenomenal talents such as Luvuyo, Lance, Wanda and Louise placed Cape Town back in contention.
Now of course the contestants will have to put their best foot forward as they represent their city at the ever-challenging Theatre Week! Time will tell if we're about to witness history be made but one thing is for certain, there's no shortage of golden voices in this beautiful land we call home!
