We couldn’t help but shake up Instagram the other night when we covered Bonang Matheba at the South African Film and Television Awards.
While many of you were ecstatic that we showcased an international style star, a few of you wanted to know exactly who she was. Thus, we decided to delve into her background and make her our Beauty Crush Wednesday!
Matheba is a woman of many gifts and talents, and her accolades are both numerous and impressive! Aside from being one of four brand ambassadors for Revlon (she made history by becoming the ONLY Revlon face outside of the US), she also owns her own Entertainment company, is a presenter on SA’s Daily Lifestyle/Talk show ‘Afternoon Express’, and also plays host on SA’s Premier Lifestyle Show Top Billing. In addition, she is a presenter on Clash Of The Choirs South Africa, is an on-air presenter of the popular radio show,“The Front Row’ on Metro FM, and is the first South African to launch her own online reality show. Whoa.
As if all that wasn’t enough to keep her busy, Bonang also owns her own clothing and lingerie line and has won numerous style and fashion awards, including a “Most Glamorous Women in South Africa” award by Glamour Magazine.
All of her accomplishments are wonderful, but we made Bonang Matheba our Beauty Crush Wednesday for the tenacity and willpower that’s clearly evident for any person to go out and chase their dreams as she has. She is living proof that you can definitely tackle all that you put your mind to, and that limitations such as resources, age, race, gender, or whatever else can only stop you if you let it!
A consummate media maven, she definitely inspires us! She’s our Beauty Crush Wednesday, is she yours?!
See her in motion below:
