Africa’s celebrity culture has gone supersonic since the first season of 10 Over 10 on Vuzu – so viewers looking for their weekly fix of
who’s hot and who’s not will want to diarise season 2’s debut. The irreverent show – which proved one of Vuzu’s most popular homegrown
shows last year - will once again take no prisoners in its quest to create the definitive celebrity Top 10 lists. Chronicling the rise and fall

through social media – giving ordinary folk the chance to weigh in on who’s making their mark in celebrityville circa 2013.
