The B-force is elated after a teaser of Bonang Matheba's “reality show” was shared online recently. 

Eleven years ago, the media personality documented her experiences in the entertainment industry on YouTube episodes before her reality TV break on Mzansi Magic, Being Bonang, which ran for three seasons.

Now she is making her online comeback with B*dazzled.

In a recent interview with The Morning Show on e.tv, Bonang said she was excited to return to YouTube.

B*dazzled is something that I started many years ago, and now as an entertainer it's so fascinating how quickly traditional media has changed ... B*dazzled was lovely, it showed some of the behind the scenes of life and the usual everyday things, it was a lot less scripted ...

“I'm going back to my YouTube era, it's important to be on YouTube ... my fans wanted this, and I'm ready to give the people what they want.” 

The trailer circulating on social media showcases Bonang's collaboration with Steve Madden, addressing dating rumours with one of the Major League DJz and her intention to be more open this time.

Watch the trailer below:

As part of Steve Madden's build-up celebrating 10 years on the continent, they made their first African collaboration with Bonang and launched the Steve Madden Bonang Matheba Holiday Select Collection, a range including six shoe and two handbag styles.

In a statement shared with TshisaLIVE, Bonang said this venture was a dream she had been working towards before the pandemic. 

“I was looking for styles that would be great to holiday in, celebrate in, dance the night away in or even be the perfect gift to spoil someone special with over the festive season,” she said.

Bonang's range with Steve is set to launch at the Steve Madden Spring/Summer collection on November 7 and will be available in stores and online from November 6.
