Idols is a television show on the South African television network Mzansi Magic based on the popular British show Pop Idol. The show is a contest to determine the best young singer in South Africa. Gold’s authenticity can only be tested under maximum fire,” – Words to mull on by Moustasem Al-Gharati as another spectacular season of Idols SA rolls round bringing with it, scores of young talent. We know you’re all psyched to see their lives changed forever as they get groomed and refined into pure gold.
Executive Producer and Director of SIC entertainment, Gavin Wratten, said, “Idols is all about pursuing and reaching your dreams, so going for gold is another way of saying take that first step and go for it.
His point is made all the more relevant when one considers that even those who don’t score a Golden Ticket (let alone the ultimate prize) still turn out to be champions in the music industry. After all, it was because of this very platform that South Africa got acquainted with the soothing voices of Shekinah, Xae, Thami Shobede, Mmatema Moremi and Amanda Black, who bowed out early but still powered onward to superstardom.

It is, as ever, that perfect mix of humor, passion and authenticity that’s made Idols a thrilling watch for almost two decades. As Gavin puts it, “The one thing we always try to do on Idols is to “keep it real” which means the Judges make their own choices (which sometimes makes me want to pull my hair out), the contestants fail or succeed on their own, and we try tell the story as best we can. I believe this is what keeps the show relevant and authentic. People often ask why we show the bad singers, but if we were only to show the good singers that would not be real. If a few thousand people arrive for auditions some will be great, some will be average and some will be terrible. We need to tell the whole story.
