At the helm for the second season is actress, presenter, and model, Pearl Thusi, while Nigerian TV presenter and fashion icon, Denrele takes over the role of “colour commentator”.

Monde Twala, vice president BET youth and music, Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) Africa, says, “Pearl and Denrele are going to make an awesome team. Pearl’s star quality is unmistakeable and she is a consummate professional, while Denrele’s a true original - bold, exciting and just on the right side of crazy. His extraordinary energy and total unpredictability should be a fascinating and explosive addition to season two of Lip Sync Battle Africa.”
