I just spoke to @ReggieNBollie. I wished them well in tonight’s #XFactor show, and I hope they go all the way to the grande finale.

Ghana is proud of their exploits, in showcasing Ghanaian talent on the international stage. Godspeed and good luck to them. @ReggieNBollie

Reggie and Bollie will be performing Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae) – Silentó (chosen by the public on Twitter) and Dynamite – Taio Cruz (chosen by Cheryl).

Before they made it to the world stage as contestants on reality music show, X Factor UK, they were champions in their own rights, boasting quite a number of hits songs on the Ghanaian music industry.

Early this year, the two decided to work together and change their musical fortunes after a long break. They auditioned at Britain’s Got Talent but didn’t make the mark.


They decided to give it another shot, this time on X Factor UK. They impressed the judges and about a month ago made it as one of 12 contestants who stand the chance of winning the ultimate –  a record deal and cash prizes.

Simon Cowell tweeted few weeks after one of their performances:

I LOVE Reggie and Bollie

They mashed up What makes you Beautiful with Cheerleader. Sounds crazy but it was fantastic.

Initially known as Menn on Point when they auditioned for the show, they changed their name to Reggie N Bollie.  They are made up of Reggie Zippy, who is famous for the song ‘Virgin’ and Bollie of ‘you may kiss the bride’ fame, a song off a compilation project by veteran music producer Hammer.
