King James ( R) must have been the happiest guy in the world, after winning all three of his nominations at the 2011 Salax Awards, topping the ceremony with “Artiste of the Year.” Here he was posing with the Minister of Sports and Culture, Protais Mitali.

Salax Awards are the night when music’s hottest stars can let their hair down and wear things that are straight-up and simply fun.


The event’s MC, Eminente, wore a traditional dress to spice up the occasion.
However, red carpet events are often all about the shock factor, where most stars normally opt for quirky fashion choices.


Gospel group, The Sisters looked fabulous.
While there were some definite misses – overall, the ladies worked it out; with Young Grace, who was simply stunning in pink and white attire, winning the “Best Red Carpet Star.”

Remembering our roots. The pair looked elegant in traditional clothes and accessories.
The Salax Awards is organised by Ikirezi Group, and this year’s forth annual event was sponsored by MTN,  The Star Times among other sponsors.


In this day and age, it’s not often you see kilt outfits, especially in Rwanda, but Urban Boyz defied all odds and opted for Scotland’s traditional dress for the red carpet appearance.
The show took place on Saturday at Petit Stade in Remera. It was graced by energetic performances by the local musicians.


Liliane Kabaganza, who scooped the “Best Gospel Artiste,” worn a satin orange elegant dress, which she teamed with a patterned headscarf wrapped around her head.
Take a look and see the Salax’s best-dressed and worst-dressed.
