A day in the Life of Queen B

by Bona staff

We all see the glitz and glam lifestyle of the self-proclaimed, Queen of Everything, but do we know how she gets to this glitz and glamour? Bonang Matheba, shares her daily diary.

6:15am: I wake up and head to a Sweat 1000 class in Morningside. Looking after my body is a must, always.

8:00am:
I go back home and go through my diary for the day. I call my PR manager, Zoe who would have scheduled all the things I need to do for work that day.

9:00am – 12:00pm:
I’m at Metro FM for my show, Front Row.

12:00pm: If I have a shoot for Top Billing I’ll go do that. The shoots are often very long and take four to five hours.

12:00 – 16:00: If I don’t have a Top Billing Shoot, I’ll squeeze in an interview like this one for BONA or go to another shoot.

17:00: I love making dinner, so I’ll cook and watch a little TV thereafter.

20:00: I’ll go through my emails, responding to them, making calls for proposals for future projects I’d like to do. I also chat to Zoe about my day the following day, and what I’d like to do and what she has scheduled for me.

10:00: It’s bedtime (that’s if I’m not at an event or MC’ing for an event).
