Two female sailors yesterday became the first to share the traditional “first kiss” on the pier following the repeal of the U.S. military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. And because people are clever about these things, they took a couple of photographs modeled after that post-WW2 first kiss photo. It’s very cool.
This just happened at Cape Town International Airport. For the older folk, that’s “DF Malan Airport.” We are not sure how this happened but assume it has something to do with the driver wanting to avoid the airport parking scam. Follow the link to enlarge the photograph.
What’s that? You don’t have any plans for New Year’s Eve? Look, don’t sweat. We have plans for you. Really, it’s a pleasure. 2oceansVibe and Trinity present Trinity Does Vegas!

A-listers, models,celebrities and the rest of the good-looking Cape Town crowd, all gathered at the hottest place for summer, Cafe Caprice in Campsbay for the Guess Fashion Show’s Latest Collection launch. If this picture is anything to go by, the whole gig was off the charts. SA’s #1 street fashion blog PopYaCollar was there, so […]
The Love Magazine website has put together an advent calendar, which features a number of supermodels dancing around in next to nothing. Believe it or not the website is proving quite popular. We managed to find the one they did with the pride of South Africa, Candice Swanepoel. It’s really rad and she also takes […]
Regular readers and longtime citizens of Cape Town will be familiar with the Mill Street Engen garage, AKA “Club Orange”. A reader sent this photograph in this morning. Says Dean Delaney: Hey Seth, just wanted to share this little piece of brilliance with you. Stranger things have happened at the 24 hour Woolworths, I know, […]
I was browsing the latest issue of GQ Magazine (US Edition) on my iPad 2 and spotted article about Lonely Island. It had Andy Samberg and co modeling those ridiculous sweaters – like the one Jim Carrey wore in his Aspen dream sequence in the film Dumb & Dumber. I flicked through it and spotted […]
Took this photo of a guy sitting on the railing in the middle of Nelson Mandela Boulevard – heading in/out of Cape Town CBD. He sits there for hours sometimes. Just watching the traffic go by at 140 km/h. Have you seen him there before? What’s his vibe? What is he waiting for? Is he […]
Visitors to Cape Town (let’s face it, the migration to the Mother City for the summer has definitely started) may appreciate it if you point out Table Mountain to them tomorrow evening. With 1 December marking World Aids Day, the City of Cape Town has agreed to light up the natural wonder in red between 7pm and 11pm.
As World AIDS Day approaches, health advocacy groups and charities across the developing world are tightening their belts following an announcement by the The Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria that the expected 11th round of funding due in 2012 would be cancelled due to “resource constraints”.
Cosmopolitan always hosts the biggest and hottest parties of the year when it comes to launching new swimwear for the summer, and this year was no exception. It took place at The Grand Café & Beach and was the perfect beach location for a night out. They had some hot new models, as well as […]
The Brothers Streep were recently seen on Idols, where they poked a bit of fun at some of the show’s more controversial moments and characters. And before that they performed live for Anna Paquin on the Graham Norton show. This time they tackle the ANC’s steamrolling of the Protection of Information Bill in parliament this week. Check out “The Secrecy Bill” after the jump.
This shouldn’t be surprising to anybody, but it’s probably good to be reminded. A study by USC’s Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism that surveyed the top 100-grossing movies of 2009, and found that only 32,8% of the 4 342 speaking characters were female. Let us remember that 2009 was the year that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen came out.
Friends, by now you’ll all be aware of the sterling social work that 2oceansVibe and Jack Daniels have done over the course of the 2011. Every month, we’ve liberated desk-bound Capetonians from the drudgery and depression of working on a Friday afternoon. Check out last month’s vibe. And we’re rounding out the year with a […]

This stylish formal event for over 300 guests is […]
Jaco Haasbroek is a designer from Cape Town. This guy designed a t-shirt so cool that it has now been worn twice on one of the biggest TV shows at the moment. The shirt is called “High 5” and it popped up in an episode of Modern Family last month, and again on last Wednesday’s episode. High-five!
Movember 2010 from ELECTRIC STORM on Vimeo.
Sunday, 27 Movember is an auspicious date. Kelvin Grove Club will never be the same, until next year. For those of you not in the know, during the month of Movember, men grow their moustaches as a sign of support for those men who have been afflicted with cancer. GO Bowling uses bowling as a […]
I got the latest V Magazine on my iPad 2 (I have a US iTunes account – which you can get here) and I was pleasantly surprised when I turned the page and found a stunning little shoot of the world’s #1 supermodel, our very own Candice Swanepoel. It would be rude not to show […]
The Euro Centres English Language School on the corner of Bree and Wale Streets in Cape Town, is on fire. Plumes of smoke could be seen from the high slopes of the City Bowl just after 13h00 on Friday. Paul Snodgrass, who was passing by at the time, submitted this photo.
Wednesday night saw probably the most important occasion of the year, as the highly anticipated Victoria’s Secret fashion show took place in New York City. Our very own Candice Swanepoel did not disappoint, as Adriana Lima made headlines of her own, prancing around in a $2.5 Million bra. And when I say “prance,” I mean […]
Big Cheeser Bob and I were fortunate enough to have lunch with an Ozzie fella, JC – one of the founding members of Movember. We chowed at my buddy Luke Dale Robert’s new restaurant at the Biscuit Mill, called “The Test Kitchen.” Awesome, simple cuisine aside, I was intrigued by JC’s clarification with regards to […]
Looks like the only bottles in da club for Lil Weezy will be the ones filled with mineral water. Following his recent conviction for drug possession, the rapper isn’t allowed to consume alcohol or associate with anyone knowingly engaged in narcotics – good luck. Let’s see if he can last longer than (Camps Bay) “twenty minutes my broda”.
Remember a few months back when the local rags were full of news about Hollywood stars, Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington seen out and about in the Mother City filming an upcoming action flick? Well, check out the fruit of those labours after the jump!

The shop was broken into at 02h15 this morning, and the group made off with over R250 000 worth of new and demo stock. DigiCape are offering a R25 000 reward for any information leading to arrests. Click through for the surveillance videos.
Did I mention that his fiancee was in his address book as well? According to Ronaldo, he was attempting to delete the Dutch fan’s saucy snaps (which included her in numerous half naked poses in a shirt with “too hot to handle” scrawled on the front), but pressed forward instead. Clearly something broke his concentration.
Heidi Klum is really, really into Halloween. Which isn’t surprising, given that Halloween is when people dress up in revealing costumes for candy, and her career is pretty much dressing up in revealing costumes for money. Except she went non-traditional at her annual Halloween party in Las Vegas, dressing as a terrifying skinless body.
CTV is Cape Town’s only community television station. But so far only viewers with an aerial that’s in the line-of-sight of Tygerberg could actually watch the channel. That all changed yesterday as they launched a 24-hour live stream, embedded on their website – taking their content global.
Marie Claire‘s Body Issue is on sale. Check out the cover. 2oceansVibe favourite and St Anne’s Old Girl, Candice Swanepoel is absolutely killing it. The issue, which is already on sale, has come in for some stick from a number of “social commentators”, who have claimed that the use of Candice Swanepoel as the cover […]
G-Star RAW in the V&A Waterfront went all out with their new denim launch for this summer.
