Wow, it’s all happening! For those of you who have just tuned in, ex security guard and Springbok rugby captain, Joost van der Westhuizen, was recently involved with a stripper in a hidden sex tape cocaine scandal. Or, should I say, “skandaal!” You can check out our past coverage on that here, but today we’re […]
That’s right, future World Number 1 surfer, South Africa’s very own Jordy Smith (currently number 6 on the ASP World Tour) is in town for the O’Neill Cold Water Classic (here) which is running from 20-24 June. This happens to be the first WQS event in Cape Town in about twenty years. Jordy Smith […]
This is one of those radical stories that only come along “once in a blue moon” (a phrase I made up to describe a rare event – use it, don’t use it). Some of you (none of you) will remember the famous kidnapping of toddler Steven Dammanin New York, 1955. The boy was snatched when […]
Ok. Unlike the unresearched photos that The Insurance Broker was sending around (here) of some photos taken onboard as the Air France flight was going down, this commercial is not a hoax. It is an ad for the Comfort Wipe which makes a certain bathroom activity that little bit easier. They claim that it is […]
Again the power of the 2oceansvibe community is on display as we receive no less than THREE separate emails with photographs of the same sign displayed on a shop window in Cape Town’s Blue Routemall. Behold: Spotted on window of a men’s manicure parlour. Blue Route Mall, Cape Town. Look, it’s a bloody nice […]
This one jumped out at me. Firstly because I appreciate the extent to which the fella freaked out and, secondly, because I used to own the exact same car and can categorically state that I have never (and will never again) deal with worse service from ANY brand than I did with Land Rover Cape […]
Advertising industry peeps will enjoy this. It’s a typical representation of rubbish work coming out of a “reputation” agency. All sorts of punishment is being dished out in the comments section under the release of a video made by TBWA\Chiat\Day – a New York ad agency who have just taken on a new Creative Director, […]
BLATANTLY ignoring Vida e’s polite public-led request (here) for cyclists to remove their helmets when frequenting their establishment; it seems that THESE cyclists couldn’t care less about the general public’s wishes regarding their grossly inappropriate, anti-social and imposing behaviour. This, sent in this morning by a 2oceansvibe reader and concerned fellow citizen. Camps Bay […]
I’m not sure who took this panoramic aerial photograph of Cape Town, Table Mountain and the Green Point stadium, but they did a very good job. Thought you might enjoy it. Click pic for hi-res version. CLICK HERE FOR HI-RES CAPE TOWN PANORAMIC IMAGE Jeepers, that is impressive! Shame, very kak place we […]
I MUST show you the Heidi Klum T-shirt I bought in Avignon whilst donning those white Ray Bans I mentioned the other day (from the new Ray Ban Colorize collection at Sunglass Hut). It is, quite simply, one of the most awesome T-shirts of your life. Check it out: Please excuse the pout But, […]
While the Golf Punk crew are officially the last people in Cape Town actually driving a Hummer, we pause to view a car that is as obscene now as the Hummer was then. Except this time it’s powered by bio-fuel! I give you the Knight XV . Seriously.. ..grow up Just wait for the […]
It hasn’t been that long since we published pics (here) of Hilts and her now ex-boyfriend, Doug Someone-or-other, dry humping each each other in Cannes; and would you believe it, they’ve broken up! Paris Hilton in blue More getting out of car NSFW here PEOPLE reports: “In response to the inquiry on whether […]
Yup, you guessed it – this happened in the UK, where they specialise in this kind of stuff. I’ll break it down for you. This 36 year old woman, Debbie Mallinson, has fled her council estate with her 18 year old lover, Adam. Debbie’s son is, naturally, Adam’s best friend. Her son is one of […]
NO.WAY! Ok, this guy’s vibe is fairly luminous. You gotta check out his website at www.ferrariguyforhire.com (ja, you read that correctly – Ferrari Guy For Hire). He basically offers a service which revolves around being a passenger in his red convertible Ferrari with, wait for it, 24 KARAT GOLD WHEELS! Enjoy the bottom right […]
The 1995 World Cup film is officially being named “INVICTUS,” and I thought you would enjoy these pics of Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar and Morgan Freeman as Nelson Mandela. Matt Pienaar Morgan Mandela Quite a vibe. I dig that pic of Morgs. Nailing the frail Mandela vibe. And Damon’s strapping around the […]
The is the “literal” version of Bonnie Tyler’s song, “Total Eclipse of the heart.” It is incredibly funny and I urge you to watch it. People in the ad and film game will love it even more. But you don’t have to be any kind of “creative” to enjoy it. Pretty good. Even […]
I’ve been approached by a food and beverages company to create a range of Seth Rotherham shaped chocolates, but I told them it wasn’t really my vibe. I felt it would be “jumping the gun” a bit to get chocolate Seths before having an action figure on the shelves. There’s kind of an order to […]
I bought this little Betty Boop figurine/doll type vibe in London. Is that ok? Betty BoopSmoking hot.. Cost me 40 quid, that did; and I can’t say for sure WHY I bought it. It just sucked me in, tractor-beam, wrrrrrrrr. I had just finished off a couple pints with The Inside Centre and […]
A number of my friends have a man-crush on Bear Grylls, the guy that hosts and appears in the TV show Ultimate Survival. You know the one – where you see Bear pushing it to the extreme, living in jungles and nearly dying on home made rafts out and sea and eating bugs, and starving […]
The following contains zero spice. As you know I’ve been doing some work with TheBombSurf.com. It’s owned by John McCarthy who used to be involved at Zig Zag magazine in the early days and started this new vibe from scratch. He contacted me a while back and mentioned something about his new surf website and […]
Well, it wasn’t really Ferris’s home, it was actually Cameron’s dad’s home. Either way, it’s for same for $2,3 million. Ferris Bueller aficionado’s will remind you that this was the venue for the biggest kid balls up of all time. When Ferris and Cameron put Cam’s dad’s Ferrari GT 250 California on bricks, […]
Hating upon all hating!! Butlers Pizza are giving away free Kika-Sack balls to the first 800 pizza orders from tonight, 5 June, 2009. So if you order from Butlers tonight, it is a FACT that you will get some Kika-Sack Butlers balls with your order! That’s IF you’re in the first 800! Maybe then […]
As the resounding chorus of dissent aimed at these senseless attacks continue, each new sighting becomes more and more difficult to comprehend. Like this recent accosting at the Shell garage shop, on Buitenkant. What is this alien doing? Take me to your leader. Vida e in South Africa have followed the 2oceansvibe led […]
For those who haven’t worked it out, you’d be advised to follow 2oceansvibe on Twitter (here) during these next few days. Obviousy there will still be articles coming out on 2oceansvibe, but there is LOADS MORE other stuff happening on Twitter throughout the day. Quick things. Small things. Fun things.
So it was the MTV Movie Awards this weekend. The evening produced many a highlight, not least of which was Sacha Baron Cohen character, Bruno‘s high-wire act “malfunction” which resulted in him landing on top of Eminem (here). The teabagging exercise ended with Eminem and his entourage storming out of the awards. Hectique vibe […]

Gee whiskers! I don’t know if I should tell everyone that I cracked a mention in this month’s Cosmopolitan Magazine’s Editor’s Letter, or if I should keep it quiet so no one finds out I bought the mag before I heard about it! Not that you can blame me for buying it. Try this cover […]
Have you ever watched the TV series Heroes? You know the one girl, Hayden Panettiere, who plays the character Claire? Ja, that’s the one. She’s recently been photographed in Cannes. Ummm.. I see.. Not really my vibe..
You get a lot of quality when you deal with the insta-rich white trash female side of football. ie. the WAGS – Footballers Wives and Girlfriends. So anyway, Spurs star JAMIE O’HARA’s girlfriend, Danielle Lloyd got into a bit of a barny yesterday, which resulted in her needing “emergency plastic surgery.” I know – pretty […]
I think it’s absolutely fine to laugh your head off at someone, whilst still feeling sorry for them. I’m talking, of course, about the ridiculously over-the-top main sports headline (here) on CNN’s website last night. The classic “Groin injury” would suffice Hey? Jeepers Hudders – was that REALLY necessary? Although, at the same […]
