Finally, all the red carpet glitz and glam we’ve been waiting for, the beauty shots and the fashion… The Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards (AMVCA) is making a comeback this September!

It’s been up for debate if the popular award show organized by MultiChoice Africa will hold this year after a brief hiatus, but the show will take place this year on the 1st of September, hosted by Ghanaian actress and TV host, Joselyn Dumas and Nigerian comedian and actor, Bovi.

This year, we’re looking forward to seeing a lot of our favourite celebrities walk the red carpet in their fabulous looks. In 2017, we had a Best Dressed List, a Beauty Looks List and of course, a list for the Most Talked About Looks from the show.

Some of our best-dressed guests from 2017 were
