The head of The BarLeader TV production has rubbished Bonang Matheba’s claims that she is still owed money. Bonang recently shared on Tweeter that one of the reasons why fans should bury the idea of another season of her popular reality show Being Bonang is because she is still owed money.
Bonang has previously shared that working on the third season of her reality show was the worst experience.
Back in 2019, she told her fans that she will one day tell them why Being Bonang’s season 3 was her worst working experience.
She tweeted: “Making Being Bonang Season 3 was one of the worst working experiences of my life!! Glad it’s ending…remind me to tell y’all why one day!”
Earlier this week, when a fan asked her to pick up where she left off with Being Bonang, the TV stay made it clear that it won’t happen. “I am over it…and they still owe me money so Nah! Maybe …B*dazzled reloaded?” she responded.
I'm over it... and they owe me money so, nah!! Maybe....B*dazzled reloaded? https://t.co/ab2pOQiBMb
Fans were shocked to learn about Bonang’s revelation. “And they owe you money, Yho hayi even the best in our country get scammed by these production companies and channels.”
“Owe you?! The nerve. That time you were one of the most-watched shows on that channel. Anyway B*dazzled it is.”
However, the Barleader TV Production head Legend Manqele The Citizen that all the money was paid to Bonang’s Management. He also revealed that the reality show was canceled because it did not perform well.
“The tweet doesn’t refer to my company or anyone specific. All money was paid to her management. For the record, Being Bonang was canceled because it wasn’t performing. It was the channel that decided not to continue with the reality show,” Manqele told the publication.
Even though ‘Being Bonang’ came to an end, the star still gave her fans a glimpse inside her fabulous life with her two-part special series of ‘A Very Bonang’ which aired on SABC 1 last year.
“I’m so excited to have a special on SABC 1. It’ll be very different from 'Being Bonang' because even if viewers have followed my journey, the show goes beyond social media with a behind-the-scenes look into a new chapter in my business career and life. I am taking viewers into my confidence," said Bonang.
Her first part of the series reached a record-breaking viewership of 1,86 million, part 2 hit over 2 million viewers.
