Not content with selling out her champopo range in just hours, Bonang is already looking to her next big business venture, a shoe and fashion range.

Last week, Bonang launched her Methode Cap Classique (MCC) range, called House of BNG. The bubbly sold out on Woolworths' website within two hours of its launch as fans flocked to get their hands on it.

During an interview on Power FM this week, Bonang said she was overwhelmed by the reaction to her bubbly and spilled the tea on how she wanted the House of BNG brand to include other products, including shoes. 

“I see House of BNG as an umbrella company that’s going to give birth to so many other things. Imagine House of BNG the fashion range," she added.

In fact, the shoe deal has apparently already been signed.

"I have signed an incredible diamond deal in New York for a shoe range that is coming out under House of BNG,” she revealed.

Bonang's bubbly has already got tongues wagging after fans complained about the R399 retail price for the product.

However, celebs including DJ Fresh, Prince Kaybee and Somizi all defended the decision.

"As South Africans are quick to... We haven't tasted it. We don't know the quality. We are quick to say, 'aaah the price!'. If you look at what was put together, what is in it. The actual making of it, we will tell. Let us taste before we dismiss it," Somizi said on his Metro FM radio show shortly after the launch.
