Last night, the first eight contestants of the Top 16 performed their hearts out to secure a spot, but their fate in the hands of South Africa. Idols SA viewers took to Twitter to rally behind their favourite performers.

Gugu Zulu was the first to perform, doing justice to Letta Mbuli’s 'There’s music in the air'. Phindy sang Adele’s 'Chasing Pavements', followed by Lindo who sang Maxwell’s 'Lifetime'.

Sixteen-year-old Paxton performed Alessia Cara's 'Hero', while Faith sang Vusi Nova’s 'Memeza'. Christo gave Bruno Mars a run for his money when he sang 'Versace On The Floor' and funky Blessed took on Brenda Fassie's 'Promises'.

Thokozile became a favourite to many after she closed off the evening with a bang when she sang Beyonce's 'Dangerously In Love'.

The second group of the remaining contestants will perform next Sunday. The group consists of Gabi, Hadassah, Mthokozisi, Thapelo, Botlhale, Minnie, Tee and Basetsana.

Voting is now open to make sure your favourite contestant is in the Top 10.

WATCH:#MUGABE'S SONS LAVISH LIFESTYLE EXPOSED

President Robert Mugabe's son, Bellarmine Chatunga, has appeared in a video in which he exposes his lavish lifestyle at a time when most Zimbabweans can hardly afford a decent meal.

Former finance minister Tendai Biti told an opposition rally in Harare last Saturday that most Zimbabweans were "surviving on less than 35 US cents per day" because of grinding poverty in the southern African country.

In a video posted on YouTube, Chatunga appeared with friends who were drinking alcohol and smoking alongside an unidentified women. It was not clear how many people were in the room where the video was shot but some voices could be heard in the background.

One of the Zimbabwean leader's son’s friends could also be seen describing Chatunga and his other colleagues as "bar rangers".

Watch the video below

Chatunga and his brother Robert Jnr were known for partying and were recently kicked out of a luxurious apartment in the leafy suburb of Sandton in Johannesburg for their "unacceptable behaviour". The duo were allegedly embroiled in a brawl late at night at the apartment block that left a security officer’s leg and arm broken.

This reportedly led to First Lady Grace Mugabe to fly to South Africa to sort out alternative accommodation for her two sons.

In the latest video, Chatunga could seen telling an unidentified friend of his that he was a habitual clubber.

"I have been to the club with you personally so you can’t tell me that you don’t club. Tell them I don’t eat sadza (Zimbabwe’s staple food) from her house, she didn’t even raise me and they can’t tell me anything… they want to judge me," said Chatunga in the video.

"Anyway guys, I hope you are having a great day, live your life and have fun," added Chatunga, who was putting on a camouflage sweater that his 93 year-old father’s government banned Zimbabweans back home from wearing.

32 aged,mother accused of killing newborn

A Mitchells Plain mother has been arrested after she allegedly choked her newborn son to death and hid him under a mattress.

According to a source close to the case, the woman was pregnant by a married man.

The incident happened at the mother’s Beacon Valley home on Saturday afternoon.

A suspicious visitor told her to take the baby to hospital.

The source says police were called to Mitchells Plain Day Hospital where they were informed that the baby boy was dead.

During an interview with the 32-year-old mother, she told police that she already had four children and had hid her pregnancy from her family.

“The boy was the child of a married man. She told police that she hid the pregnancy and was at home when her water broke,” says the source.

“She gave birth to the child in the house and when she was done, people heard noises and came to the house.”

The insider says the mother denied that anything was happening when questioned about the noise and the blood, and covered the child’s mouth and put him in a cupboard.

“Then the people left. She told police that she took the baby out and strangled him. His whole face was blue and you could see an injury under his chin and the cord was still attached.

“An aunty from the church arrived at the house and found the baby and made the mother take the baby to the hospital where she was arrested.”

Police spokesperson, Captain FC van Wyk, confirms the arrest of the mother, and says a murder investigation is underway.

“A post-mortem will be conducted to determine the cause of death,” he says.

When the Daily Voice visited the woman’s home in Jukskei Crescent, a woman who identified herself as the suspect’s mother declined to comment.

The woman’s neighbours say they knew nothing of the arrest or murder case, but few admitted to knowing about a dead baby.

Meanwhile Fouzia Rhodes, a member of the street committee, says she got a fright when she heard the mother was arrested.

“Dit is snaaks dat die mense sê hulle wiet niks (It's funny that people are saying they don't know anything). When I asked one of the guys this morning about that house, he sommer (just) said the house where the baby died. So somebody must know something. We are very concerned and we would want to know why she did it,” says Fouzia.

#DUMIMASILELA'S LAST WORDS TO SIBLING

‘Take care of mom and the family”

These were the last words Dumisani Masilela spoke to his younger brother, Mbongeni, just before he went in for an operation after being shot in an attempted hijacking.

News of the 29-year-old actor’s death broke early on Thursday, plunging industry friends and fans into mourning. Masilela succumbed to his injuries after he tried to drive away as gunmen tried to hijack the car he was in on Wednesday night.

Police spokesperson Kay Makhubele said the incident happened around 8pm in Tembisa, Ekurhuleni.

“It is believed that three people in a Jeep blocked off their car and shot at the victim who was in a white VW Golf 7,” Makhubele said.

Deputy Police Minister Bongani Mkongi visited the grieving family in Van Riebeeck Park on Thursday to convey his condolences.

“We came here as the Police Ministry to give hope and pray with the family that this tragedy is not only resting on them, but on all South Africans. If the family is hurt the whole country is hurt.”

Mkongi promised the family that the police were following up all the leads to arrest the criminals.

“We have the leads and we are going to arrest them. Wherever they are sitting now enjoying their liquor and drugs They must know the law is going to catch up with them.”

Mbongeni Masilela said Dumi, as his brother was affectionately known, had told him something private while in the hospital and he knew that meant he was telling him to take care of their family.

He said the family was thankful to the police for their help and knew that they would do everything in their power to help them.

“We will do everything in our power to assist them (the police) to ensure justice is done. We are saddened and hurt, but we have to be strong for Dumisani. He was our big brother, our role model a son to umama nobaba.

“We appreciate everything he did for us and we will be strong for mama, just as he was for the family.”

The Masilela family were also reeling from the death of his aunt who died after hearing the news. The family also buried Dumi’s father last year.

Before acting, Masilela made it into the Top 16 of Idols SA in 2012. He was also a soccer star.

'HE'S AN ATTENTION SEEKER!' - K.O ON DJ CITI LYTS 'BEEF'

Rapper K.O has cleared the air on the feud between him and DJ Citi Lyts, calling the Shishiliza hitmaker a waste of his time and an "attention seeker".

The feud had started several weeks ago when DJ Citi Lyts took to Twitter to accuse K.O of stealing the unique Skhanda sound from his former artist Kid X.

K.O refused to acknowledge the DJ at the time but that didn't stop Citi Lyts from returning to the platform this past weekend to rip K.O to shreds.

K.O did not respond to the tweets and told TshisaLIVE he had no time for Citi Lyts.

"I saw what he tweeted and I did not reply because he is a waste of my time. I don't care about that guy or what he says anymore. He has been going at me for a long time and its getting tiring," K.O said.

He claimed that Citi Lyts was "looking for attention" with his social media comments.

"I don't have an issue with him but he is looking for attention. It is sad if he is doing this for attention because I won't respond to him," the Run Jozi rapper said.

K.O said he was confused by Citi Lyts' rant because the DJ had come to him at a show just the night before to greet him.

"He wanted to shake my hand. I knew what he had said about me before and I was hesitant but I shook it because I thought that he would stop. He is (rapper) PRO's brother and PRO is my idol. It is just disappointing that he (Citi Lyts) is acting like this," K.O added.
