Nickelodeon is about to experience the charm and sass of the “Pretty Girl from Jo’burg” as Tyla gears up to host the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards.

The 23-year-old South African sensation is breaking barriers, left, right and centre, continuing to dominate 2025.

Nickelodeon has announced that the Grammy-award-winning superstar will host the 2025 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Award, which will take place on June 21 at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California.

The “Water” hitmaker is also nominated for Favourite Global Music Star and Favourite Music Collaboration for WizTheMc and bees & honey’s “Show Me Love”, on which Tyla is featured.

The singer is no stranger to the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards; in 2024, she was nominated for Favourite Global Music Star, Favourite Breakout Artist and Favourite Viral Song ("Water").

Tyla’s rise to stardom has been nothing short of rapid. She has been making remarkable waves in the music industry and breaking barriers with her unique sound and confidence.

Adding to the list of wins, her hosting the Kids’ Choice Awards is a whole new level of awesome, and Tyla's ready to slay.

She took to her X account in disbelief and posted: “I’m really about to host the kids' choice awards 💀🤍🙈.”



Tyla is making history once again as she becomes the first African to host the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards, and as the first African host in the show’s history, she is set to bring a fresh perspective and a dash of South African flavour to the slimy Nickelodeon stage.

This is not Tyla’s first time making history, though.

She has been trailblazing as an African artist for a while now.

The “uppity African” (as some referred to her) is the first African artist to have a song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in over a decade with her hit single “Water”.

She also made history with her Grammy nomination, becoming the youngest South African nominee in the Best African Music Performance category.

And it seems like Tyla’s winning streak is far from over. With a busy year ahead, she is booked and busy, taking on new projects and collaborations that excite her fans.

On Thursday, May 16, it was revealed in the "Smurfs" trailer that Tyla will be featured on the movie’s soundtrack alongside Rihanna and Cardi B.

The 2025 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards are set to be an exciting event, with a star-studded lineup of nominees such as Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga and Kendrick Lamar as the top nominees, each receiving four nods.

Tyla’s bubbly personality, captivating stage presence and undeniable talent make her the perfect host for the awards. We are predicting several cute selfies, hilarious moments and maybe even some impromptu dancing on the stage because she is so fun!

The Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards will air on MTV Africa (DStv channel 130) on Wednesday, June 25, at 5pm

New Report Suggests ‘High Likelihood of Human Civilization Coming to an End’ Starting in 2050

New Report Suggests ‘High Likelihood of Human Civilization Coming to an End’ Starting in 2050 A harrowing scenario analysis of how human civilization might collapse in coming decades due to climate change has been endorsed by a former Australian defense chief and senior royal navy commander. The analysis, published by the Breakthrough National Centre for Climate Restoration, a think-tank in Melbourne, Australia, describes climate change as “a near- to mid-term existential threat to human civilization” and sets out a plausible scenario of where business-as-usual could lead over the next 30 years. The paper argues that the potentially “extremely serious outcomes” of climate-related security threats are often far more probable than conventionally assumed, but almost impossible to quantify because they “fall outside the human experience of the last thousand years.” On our current trajectory, the report warns, “planetary and human systems [are] reaching a ‘point of no re...

Best bikinis for a bigger bust

Best bikinis for a bigger bust If you have a larger bust, you’ll be all too familiar with the trials of finding a bikini that both fits and looks good. Spilling over ill-fitting cups, straps digging into your sides or the fear of having a ‘wardrobe malfunction’ are the last things you want on your mind when sipping a mojito on the beach. Even if you do find a bikini style you like, mainstream clothes stores often don’t stock larger sizes, making vacation preparations even more frustrating. With a bigger bust comes the need for more support – be that an underwire, padding, or just a well cut piece – so you can swim in comfort. There are of course bikinis for different occasions; sunbathing, swimming, beach sports, with each lending itself to different styles and recommendations. Finding the shape and fit that best suits your figure is a minefield, so we tried a range of bikinis for bigger busts to give you a better idea of what to buy. Being bigger doesn’t mean you have to f...
