The Idols SA (Season 18) Top 7 contestants were announced during episode 12 of the season. The showstopping episode aired last night, on Sunday 8 October 2022. The top 7 contestants are Kabela, Noxolo, Mpilwenhle , Thapelo, Zee, Ty Loner and Nozi (who recently received praise from Jenifer Hudson herself, after performing the hit single Giving Myself) . Unfortunately, Ceejay from KwaDukza in KwaZulu-Natal was sent home as he did receive enough votes to keep him in the singing competition. 

The night was hosted by Proverbs and started with the Top 8 contestants performing a rendition of Beyonce songs which included ‘Get Me Bodied’

The Beyonce smash was spectacular and set the tone for the show stopping night ahead. Proverbs wrote on Twitter, 'Well done to the class of Idols SA season 18, congratulations on making the top 7, and for putting on an unforgettable Showstopper Night #IdolsSA'

The episode was also filled with guest performances from comedic genius, Mpho Popps Modikane and Robot Boii who owned the stage with an out of this world performance.

The vibes of the night were immaculate to the point that the two guests developed a handshake backstage.

In terms of the contestants, they delivered! Twitter peeps are raving about the night but the two favorites seem to be Nozi and Thapelo.
