M-Net doing another Oscars pre-show red carpet special set for 25 February from the 91st Academy Awards, this time with The Voice SA presenter Anele Mdoda.


M-Net will be doing another red carpet special from the Academy Awards in Los Angeles, this time with The new presenter of the third season of The Voice SA, Anele Mdoda who will do interviews from the 91st Annual Academy Awards that will be broadcast on M-Net Movies Premiere (DStv 104) on Monday 25 February.

The Red Carpet Special as a pre-show to this year's Oscars will be broadcast on M-Net Movies Premiere on Monday 25 February at 20:30. The 91st Academy Awards will be broadcast live on M-Net Movies Premiere at 03:00 on Monday 25 February, with a delayed broadcast on the same Monday night at 21:00 on M-Net (DStv 101).

"Hosting the red carpet for M-Net for one of the biggest awards shows in the world is an absolute highlight for me," says Anele Mdoda in a statement. 

"I have watched the Oscars every year and the most memorable moments for me were when Denzel Washington and Sandra Bullock won, and when Charlize won - and gave South Africa a shout out."

"This year I look forward to celebrating with the Black Panther cast as they head in with seven Oscar nods. We have to speak to Bradley Cooper and salute his directing for A Star Is Born, as well as his performance in it."

"We must also get Spike Lee - who has an honorary Oscar but has his first ever nomination as director for BlackKklansman. And then we hope to chat to Mahershala Ali who was nominated for Green Book and of course Glenn Close for The Wife. We also can't forget about Rami Malek and Bohemian Rhapsody! And then of course, there’s the fashion!"
