This season sees the return of Africa’s most famous and fabulous, as they embrace life and love on the richest square mile on the continent. This time, however, a few new faces promise to make their mark in Africa’s most elite group.

South Africa’s entertainment industry darling Bonang Matheba will also make an appearance this season and her presence certainly ruffles a few feathers. Fantana, Ghanaian-American rapper and all-around superstar who quickly makes her mark on the group, and Luis Munana from Namibia, former Big Brother Africa contestant and entrepreneur extraordinaire who brings the heat from the onset.

In light of the guest appearance on the new season of the reality show, which Matheba described as “20 seconds” worth of screen time. She did confirm that viewers can expect drama. A sentiment which can lead many to believe that this might have to do with the end of her friendship with rapper Nadia Nakai after she started dating her ex, AKA.

While might be a few weeks away, fans can expected the much-anticipated second episode of B*Dazzled 2.0 much sooner than that if Queen B*’s sentiments are to be believed.

Vlogging-style YouTube videos hinge on consistency. A fact, which our mainstream ZAlebs who have YouTube channels seem to forget. Even Bonang Matheba who started the year by announcing the return of her YouTube-based reality show B*Dazzled 2.0 seemed to have failed at consistency as it has been three months since the first and currently only episode on the channel.

However, Matheba was the guest on YFM’s The Way Up breakfast show, where she finally addressed the real reason for the delay.

This is as she had previously associated the delay with dating and travelling, which was partly the truth. But now she has also revealed that part of the reason she opted to delay the release of a new episode was due to the fact that, “the country was in mourning,” in light of the passing of AKA ahead of the initial scheduled release of episode two.

Moreover, Matheba than shared when her subscribers and fans can expect the second episode of B*Dazzled 2.0. She relented that the second episode can be expected to drop on Friday, 28 April 2023.
