Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of Africa's hottest music awards, the Channel O Music Video Awards? For the very first time DStv is bringing viewers a sneak peak at how some of the artists prepare for their big appearances on the show on OMVA Awards Journal.
A lot of work goes into producing an awards show and more often than not the most dramatic incidents happen backstage. The 24-minute OMVA Awards Journal gives audiences a bird's eye view into how the artists prepare, hang out together and get ready for a big awards evening. Tune in at 21:00 CAT on Friday 23 November to see how some of the artists calm down or gear up before the big showcase.
Also, during every awards show there are always fashion hits, misses and "what was she/he thinking!" moments. Channel O VJ Denrele hosts OMVA Fashion File, another first for the channel. Joining him on the fashion panel is: Eku, a model and actress from 53 Extra, Vimbai, Africa Magic Entertainment Star Gist co-anchor and Boogy, stylist to many African stars. Together they look at who brought their fashion A-game to the awards' red carpet and who didn't.
Making guest appearances on the show are Channel O Music Video Awards nominee and one of Uganda's superstars Navio, Nigerian artist, actor and record label boss Lynxxx and SA's new artist Sphum.
Watch OMVA Fashion File this Sunday 25 November at 21:30 CAT. It will be shown after the re-screening of the 9th Annual Channel O Music Video Awards at 19:00 CAT. Channel O is available on DStv channel 320 and on GOtv channel 70 (where available).
