Don't be so nosey! Bonang Matheba claps back at nose job claims
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
"Don’t ruin the fun for everyone," Bonang tells a blogger who insinuated that she got a nose job.
Bonang Matheba is less than impressed with an entertainment blogger who accused her of getting a nose job.
The drama started after Queen B shared several pictures and videos from a recent trip to Lagos, Nigeria.
"…..twinkle, twinkle little star!" she captioned one clip.
Blogger Musa Khawula reposted one of the 34-year-old's videos on his Twitter feed.
"Rumor has it Bonang Matheba has purchased a new nose" he wrote.

Fashion and influence editor Tay Dlamini at 'Guide to Celebrity' responded to the post with four simple words.
"You really suck dude," she wrote. Bonang spotted the exchange and replied: "He does…now, I’m forced to do something about it."
Earlier this year, the media personality successfully sued podcaster Rea Gopane for defamation. He found himself in hot water after claiming in a 2021 podcast that she introduced her ex-boyfriend, rapper AKA, to cocaine.
Rea reportedly now owes Queen B R300,000.

In a separate tweet related to the nose job claims, Bonang warned bloggers not to ruin the fun for everyone.
"…I’m all for entertainment journalism, just don’t ruin the fun for everyone. It’s weird."
While Bonang didn't exactly confirm or deny the rumours, some social media users pointed out that her nose just looked different because of make-up contouring and a social media filter.
But some were not convinced. "The nose looks new and expensive. I just hope she didn't spend more than what both of Chris car's are worth. Just saying," one Twitter user wrote.

Meanwhile, after a nearly year-long hiatus, Bonang is back in the spotlight. She is set to host a 'The Real Housewives of Lagos (RHOLagos)' event in Johannesburg this week.
The Lagos version of the franchise is set to premiere on Showmax on Friday, April 8.
Several stars from the show are expected to fly to South Africa for the event, which is taking place on Thursday. Some of the ladies from 'Real Housewives of Durban' will also make an appearance.
