Shudufhadzo Musida serenades crowd at One Young World Summit, Canada

After pulling off a shocking run that left South Africans stunned on the popular SABC 3 show The Masked Singer South Africa, former Miss SA Shudufhadzo Musida’s musical confidence seems to be growing, as the public figure was spotted serenading a crowd at the One Young World Summit that took place in Montreal, Canada.

The One Young Summit is a space where young leaders responsible for shaping the future come together to discuss and confront issues and challenges that are plaguing humanity. Although a number of exciting items were on the schedule for the day, a performance by the former Miss SA was a pleasant surprise for many in attendance.

Shudu took to the stage to perform her popular rendition of Coldplay’s ‘Viva La Vida’, which she first performed as the Blue Crane on ‘The Masked Singer SA‘. The significant moment was captured by media personality Anele Mdoda, who expressed how proud she was of Shudu for pulling off such an impressive feat.

“Shudu performing a song she sang on Masked Singer to a crowd of 1000 people in Canada is wild! Our beautiful Blue Crane!@abigailmusida love you ke doll,” Anele Mdoda captioned a post on X(formerly Twitter).

Shudu responded with deep gratitude to Anele, as the moment would have not happened had she not invited Shudu.

Another user, who was present at the summit, Melusi Simelane managed to capture a different angle of the performance, showing Shudu confidently strutting through the crowd as she entertained them with her smooth singing voice.
