Bonang Matheba turns down Playboy

Cape Town - Radio and TV personality Bonang Matheba has rejected an offer to be Playboy South Africa's cover girl, reports Entertainment Africa.

Matheba was approached last week to appear on the magazine's first anniversary edition.

Charl du Plessis, Playboy SA's editor, said Matheba and her management team rejected the offer, but gave no reason for her decision.
