The Neiman Marcus Christmas Book is known for things that most of us probably couldn’t afford. So it was quite a moment when 100 hot, limited edition Camaro Convertibles worth $75,000 each sold out in three minutes.
Marisol Valles, 20-year-old criminology student, recently became police chief of Guadalupe, one of the most dangerous cities in Mexico – because no-one else wanted the job. Guadalupe is second only to Juarez in terms of violence; Valles was “the only person willing to accept the position.”
You will remember Anna Chapman. She’s counted among our Tuesday Tabs angels here on 2oceansvibe. Well now she is posing for the Russian Maxim mag. Check out this hot video.
The three cinemas (Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town) we have managed to secure for a pre-public screening of Facebook movie, ‘The Social Network’ are 70% full so far – so if you have a blog and you want to watch the movie (with a buddy) before the general public, there is still time! Private screening will take place on 25 October! Follow the link to see how!
Please enjoy this vibe. The dog is saying “My owner doesn’t understand me”. Well, that’s cute. But it’s wrong.
Online dating is a wide field; you can go out trawling for cougars, swingers, or partners with a little extra meat on ’em. And now virgins can find other virgins, in what is presumably an attempt to kill two birds with one stone.
Mercedes-Benz have really spoilt us with the likes of the Gullwing. But now, they bring you two concept models that will leave you pretty darn wet if you ask me!
It’s that time of year again – one of the greatest legal ways to piss-off your partner is upon us. Growing one’s moustache in support of testicular cancer is pretty much your duty as a man, and why would she understand, anyway? Does she have balls? Negative. And without your support, neither will a large number of men around the world. Follow the link and prepare for Movember!
Overeager merchandising at Amazon led to the spoiling of Transformer 3: The Dark of the Moon’s plot, which everybody is just devastated about. What’s that? You don’t watch it ‘for the story’? Oh. Well it’s in space, apparently…
It is considered the most boring of all the positions, until now! The good ol’ church-approved missionary is apparently a rather orgasmic position…Who knew?
To all the ex-pats and foreign readers out there…it’s October already and you’re leaving it pretty late, if you still haven’t booked your villa for your Cape town holiday. I mean, you ARE coming to Cape Town over December, right? Best you get moving – and 2oceansvibe Villas has something for every pocket. See what’s available after the jump.
The Simpsons have been hiding a religious agenda, apparently. Sunday’s edition of L’Osservatore Romano, the Vatican’s daily broadsheet, declared that ”Not many people know it, and he does everything he can to hide it. But it’s true, Homer J. Simpson is Catholic.” I guess drawing conclusions from nonexistent evidence isn’t entirely new to the region.
At a glittering function, coincidentally held at Seth’s Johannesburg residence, The Westcliff Hotel, GQ last night hosted the Best Dressed Men In SA Awards. And what an evening it was, as the who’s who of South African fashionati came out to play. Even more exciting was the fact that your very own Seth Rotherham walked away with the top honours! But that wasn’t the spiciest part of the evening..
Bugatti is back on top! After losing its title as the world’s fastest production car to the American-built Aero SSC Ultimate, the Veyron has hit back with the Super Sport!
Look, I can’t imagine anyone is upset about the decision to put Candice Boucher on the cover of the new Sports Illustrated Swimsuit magazine. I mean, having recently KILLED in the US edition of Playboy magazine, she IS one of our hottest exports! Check it out after the jump.
It’s been just over a month since the last TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) sighting – that magical moment experienced by 2oceansviber Barry, at the Biscuit Mill. A certain calm has once again descended upon Cape Town, and anyone who attended this year’s Rocking the Daisies festival will agree that the same aura was felt in and around the town of Darling. It’s little wonder we received this latest TBG Sighting.
As one of South Africa and the world’s greatest forensic scientists, David Klatzow shouldn’t require much introduction. His most recent big headline had to do with the killing of Brett Kebble. For it was David Klatzow that blew the case open, with the revelation of an assisted suicide. this guys has seen it all. Book review after the jump.
We interviewed Duran Duran’s Simon Le bon on Friday afternoon live on 2oceansvibe Radio. If you missed it then not to worry – we’ve got the podcast right here for you to download. Find out what’s in store for us when they come to Cape Town. Pleas enjoy Simon’s enthusiasm about the yacht we’ve got lined up for him. Listen after the jump.
There seems to be a lot of people still addicted to phone calls of late – desperately wanting to cover detail which has/could’ve been discussed and confirmed in email. So here we are – stuck between people who have progressed, and others who have replaced the phone cord with what seems to be an invisible umbilical cord. Which brings us to the new 2oceansvibe website – listen to this..
While many sportsmen spend their time in the run up to a major event practicing, James Hunt spent the 2 weeks prior to his famed 1976 win in Japan on a “round-the-clock alcohol, cannabis and cocaine binge”.
You know that feeling when you get into the car after having a few too many? Don’t deny it, you know you have done it. You turn the corner and wham, there’s a road block! There is no adrenalin quite like that. So would it help if they did away with the drunk-driving laws?
There was much excitement the other day after we posted a picture of the man who is affectionately known as ‘Papa Smurf.’ He was dominating Rocking The Daisies at the time, and since then we have received a deluge of emails and pics. So we thought we would jump on board the P-Train and give you a whole lot of this Cape Town legend. After the jump.
The image you see here is a familiar sight, I have no doubt. You usually bow your head when the envelope arrives in the post, open it slowly and immediately your eyes dart to the value of the fine. Once that is done, there is hopefully a photograph taken at the scene of the crime, with you in the car as you drove over the speed trap. But what if it wasn’t you? What if it was no-one?
While the rest of us will have to wait a whole five years until we can get our hands on a pair of 2015 self-lacing Nike Mags like Marty McFly, anyone with $12,000 – $15,000 to spend can get their hands on the originals next month. Personally, I’m saving my money for a Mattel Hoverboard.
Cape locals Glenn Ward and Dries Millard are about to embark on a road trip of epic proportions – they’ll be undertaking a marathon trek from Saldanha to Cape Town. That’s a distance of 142km. Now I don’t know about you, but the daily trip to the water cooler is a significant achievement for me. Oh yeah, small detail. They’ll be doing it in wheel chairs.
Is it McDonald’s fault that more than 63 percent of Americans are overweight or obese, making them the fattest nation in the history of the world? Check out this advert that might get them thinking.
My fellow 1800 fans will be pleased to hear that they have launched their new Summer Menu! And they’re doing it properly too, with a ridiculous new R169 Summer Menu Promotion. Unbelievably, that includes a glass of sparkling, starter, 200g rump (or sirloin of rib-eye) + signature sauce, dessert and underground parking at my residence, The Cape Royale Hotel!
If you ever saw the series Friday Night Lights, you should know about Minka Kelly. To recap, she was the one you were in love with. And not just talking to the guys – even the most jealous girl out there couldn’t hate Minka. She’s too cute. All the photos (and video!) after the jump.
The more trendy of our London ex-pats will know of Carluccio’s Caffès – a great place to meet over a drink and simple well-prepared Italian food, made on the premises. Although one extra thing seems to have been added to their New Bond Street Carluccio’s menu – something that certainly is Italian and hand-made, but not right there on the premises!
Volkswagen just keep coming back for more! Remember the family-oriented advertisment from the good old days with David Kramer? Or the ones featuring “I remember the days of my life” by Andre de Villiers? Yeah, this advertisement is nothing like that, but damn it has its place.
