ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - The top 3 on Idols SA brought out their best as the singing contestants celebrated divas and divos in their song choice.
Airing on Sunday evening, the latest Idols SA episode started with the top 4: Nozi, Thapelo, Ty Loner and Zee.
However, Ty was voted out after not receiving enough votes from the public.
The remaining top 3 had to pick songs from revered divas – ”talented woman, with perhaps a bit of a justifiable ego” and divos – the male version.
Artists characterised in this list include legends such as Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey and Luther Vandross.
The second performance had to be the contestant’s audition song at the beginning of their journey to see how far they had come. And their last performance was a judge’s choice.
For his divo’s choice, it was Michael Bolton’s When a Man Loves a Woman and the judge’s choice was Luther Vandross’s So Amazing.
Thapelo received a special shoutout from the South African Police Service (Saps). On Twitter, Saps wrote: “Congratulations to Warrant Officer Thapelo Molomo who made it through to #IdolsSA TOP 3. The South African Police Service wishes him the best of luck on his Idols SA journey”.
