This time, however, the spotlight is on finding South Africa’s very own Tyla double.
If you think you’ve got international sensation Tyla’s smouldering good looks, sultry dance moves, and vibrant personality, head to the V&A Waterfront Amphitheatre on November 9 at 1 pm to compete for the title and a cool R3,000 in cash. This isn’t just about looks – it’s a full celebration of Tyla’s style, energy, and charisma.

Hosting the event are The Dream Boys, a philanthropic group known for their legendary giveaways that include everything from cash and gaming consoles to iPhones.
The group has gained a massive social media following, boasting over 670,000 fans on TikTok alone. They travel across South Africa, brightening people’s days with impromptu prizes and creating uplifting moments for fans.
@dreamboysza We love all of you! ?? #southafrica #dreamboysza #capetown ♬ BABY I’M BACK – The Kid LAROI
From shopping sprees to cash rewards, The Dream Boys bring a refreshing positivity to South Africa, a sentiment many agree the country needs right now.
The Tyla look-alike competition is more than just fun; it’s a tribute to the Grammy-winning artist on her home.
It’s also perfectly timed as Tyla is set to perform on December 5 at the Grand Arena, GrandWest, Cape Town, and on December 7 at SunBet Arena, Menlyn.
So, if you think you’ve got the look, join the festivities and celebrate Tyla’s journey from Joburg to global stardom.
Words; Fame Frenzy
