The Brand's Business Lead, Bongi, said:
"When we were putting it together, we said these are also stars that our fans and supporters love to listen to, so that is why it's such a good mixture of male and females this year, however we did have our non-negotiables which are the beautiful female stars and with Uncle Waffles being the headliner it was a no-brainer I mean she done so well globally, so why not have her here where she started, so yeah and I believe people will be happy with the lineup we chose for the day. "
