1y By Sergio Miller

The Johannesburg-based dance group, the Tembisa Red Devils Pantsula, is eager to fly the South African flag high in the United States. 

Known for their silky-smooth choreography and vibrant spirit, the former France’s Got Talent contestants have recently taken their talents to yet another overseas-based audience. They have recently jetted off to Las Vegas, where they will soon be featured in one of Coldplay’s newest music videos. 

The group has since taken to X (formerly Twitter), sharing several pictures showcasing the scenery and beautiful landscapes. 

“From Winnie Mandela Tembisa 1632, to USA, Las Vegas, Nevada, to dance isipantsula representing our country, South Africa. Thank you, God,” they captioned one of their posts. 

Despite being far from home, they made sure to go out and support all things proudly South African along the way. This comes as another post shows the group all displaying bright smiles while posing in front of South African billionaire Elon Musk’s Tesla. 

After years of entertaining fans from various parts of the country, the group celebrated its 20th anniversary in August 2023. 

At the time, the group’s artistic director and group leader, Solly Phahlamohlaka praised the community for their unwavering support throughout the last two decades. 

“This celebration is a testament to the power of unity and the belief that anything is possible when you pursue your dreams passionately,” he added in an interview with Kempton Express.
