TYLA SURPRISES STUDENT AT MATRIC DANCE
Imagine being able to say that your date to your school’s matric dance was none other than global superstar singer Tyla. Queue the ultimate bragging rights.
That’s exactly what happened to 18-year-old Mo Madiba.
Madiba took a chance in February and posted a TikTok inviting the Grammy Award-winning artist as his date to his school’s matric dance.
His video went viral, and soon radio station 5FM heard about it. They decided to do what they could to make Madiba’s dream come true. The station’s listeners got involved, and soon the hashtag went viral.
Even though a rumour did the rounds that Tyla saw the video and was moved, there was no news that she would be able to attend.
The dance was held on the grounds of the St. Stithians Boys College in Johannesburg. Soon after everyone was seated and settled, Tyla’s brand-new song started playing, and the Edenvale-star surprised everyone by walking into the room.
Tyla spent the evening with Madiba and his fellow students and took to the dance floor with them.
Don’t you just love it when a dream comes true? We’re sure this is something Madiba, his fellow students, teachers and even Tyla won’t forget.
