Without saying much, the Queen B added a queen emoji.

One person was not impressed, though, as they challenged this achievement, asking whether this translates to anything that would better the continent.

@UppityAfrica reacted:

"Okay? How does that translate to African reach in terms of endorsement and/or business partnerships? It's amazing that she's booked and most awarded, it's beautiful, but how does that translate to the widening of her future prospects and subsequently wealth? I'm not fighting."

Bonang stuns in Gucci head-to-toe

In a previous report from Briefly News, TV presenter Bonang Matheba wore Gucci head-to-toe in her recent Instagram pictures.

Bonang flaunted her fashionable designer Gucci Giglio tote handbag, which complemented her stylish outfit, consisting of Gucci fits.

B also has a collection of handbags worth millions. Briefly News previously compiled a list of Bonang's luxury possessions, which total R5 million or more. She owns a stunning black Ferrari GTC4Lusso worth R5 million. However, that's not all, Bonang also owns a Mercedes-Benz Maybach S500 (R1.8 million) and a Benz G Wagon. Mzansi has always said that B has impeccable taste.
