I posted a video some guys made for the Yogi Sip competition that was running up until quite recently. I don’t know what the vibe of the competition was (as is the case with free exposure), but I did show you a pretty cool video (here) of some Sharks angels sliding down a garden slippy […]
This is without a doubt the most extreme I’ve seen. Although admittedly crude, one must give the person credit to cruise around with a straight face, in this: KUM CAN WP Although I can’t imagine the angels taking too kindly to it. [thanks ant]
You probably noticed in last week’s 2oceansvibe Weather Girls show (here) that I managed to get my hands on a T-shirt from the new Ape Town range. That’s right, the original Ape Town brand has just released a whole new range of colours to suit every mood! They’re really sick and, as usual, they’ve nailed […]
A stunning day had by all! Andrew from the Hi-Five Scooter Club organised a scooter rally that took place on voting day (GO DOLPHINS!), yesterday, which kicked off at the Waterfront Vespa Shop, next to the Caltex station. A rally that was put together to highlight the perfect match that is scooters and Cape Town, […]
Ok, it’s not just about her divorce, but she is going through one. I’m told on good authority that she is a 28 year old “smoking hot” white Capetonian, working in the city bowl who swears and takes sleeping pills. Right up your alley, perhaps? The website is called This Is The Life (TITL) and […]
I sent out a tweet on Sunday night with the following photo of Mara on Idols, as I waited for Carte Blanche to start. I sent with it the words, “Haaaahahahaha” which was what I was doing at the time – completely hosing myself. Who are you? Aah ja – good old Mara. […]
So I trust everyone has seen the Susan Boyle video? The one from Britain’s Got Talent . If you haven’t seen it, check it out (here). It’s one of those ones where Simon Cowell thinks the woman is going to sing shit, but then she throws out a belter. Ashton Kutcher Twittered about the clip, […]
Well if it wasn’t enough that Mel Gibson is gong to lose $500,000,000 to his wife (here) as a result of his alleged boning of a Russian pop star (here); more revealing details and images have emerged, suggesting that his state of mind is definitely in question. Braveheart fans should probably turn away as they […]
The shot is taken 400m above the hole and the ball takes a 30 second flight to reach the green. It’s right here in South Africa and a hole in one will get you a cool R13 million. And yes, you do need a chopper to get to the tee. Piece of old tacky […]
Mark C spotted an honourable mention (here) in a recent mybroadband investigation into South Africa’s biggest websites. It certainly made for interesting reading and something perhaps YOU should read as you navigate this ever-changing SA media landscape. It was noted : SA’s biggest websites and blogs South Africa is currently experiencing strong […]
F1 Ace, Jenson Button (or, as The Muse calls him, “Jenni Button”) got into a major row with Richard Branson before the inaugural 2009 Formula 1 race in Melbourne Australia a few weeks back. Branson, having just recently confirmed Virgin’s sponsorship of the Brawn F1 team, went out with the team after Button secured pole […]
@countsabel sent this out on Twatter on Friday. I thought I’d save it for your Monday morning. I couldn’t think of a better way to start the week. So please, enjoy one of better videos you will ever watch during this lifetime. Chad Feeling better? Good. Enjoy tinkering at work during this, your […]
Wow, there was definitely no getting out of this one! After my incredibly naive pre-Blog Awards pledge video where I promised (should I win) to ride my scooter along the Camps Bay strip in a leopard print thong (emphasis on “strip!”), there was no end to the sms’s, emails and tweets asking “hey dude, what […]
What’s the weather looking like for this weekend? Look no further! This week’s 2oceansvibe Weather Girl is none other than one of the The BOMB Surf BOMBshells , 21 year old Miss Cape and former Miss SA finalist, Michelle G from M1 Management. We have a little chat with the little treasure before she gives […]
Not sure if you caught this wonderful little spot of rural graffiti. Just after the recent Table Mountain fires (here), there were a few spots in the Zonnebloem area which weren’t burnt. some of them were circles. Like this one below. Which someone drew on a smily face in the middle of the night! […]
Jesus, Rachel – chill out! What’s eating Jennifer A(r)niston?
I remember when I got my first copy of the latest Dirty Skirts album, Daddy Don’t Disco – I nearly wet myself the whole way through. And then came the track that is currently all over the airwaves – “Rolling Like Thunder.” As much of the fan that I am, I couldn’t actually believe what […]
I wasn’t around at the time, but there is something incredibly cool about New York movies I’ve watched based in the 1950’s. I’ve always loved the vibe. The post-Capone era, when TV had just come about and James Dean was doing his thing. But most of all, I dig the restaurant vibe that one sees […]
Have you heard of this angel, Padma Lakshmi? Padma Lakshmi Me neither. She’s pretty cool though, don’t you think? Seems like the kind of girl who you could just chat to for HOURS! She’s actually a chef and, lke me, an only child. Ja – serious. Wikipedia tells us : Padma Parvati Lakshmi […]
I took a double take, nay, a triple take this weekend as I browsed through the property section of the Weekend Argus. The first thing that jumped out of the Vineyard Estates page was the fact that the estate agent featured for the one property had a superimposed bow-tie on. How bizarre, I thought to […]
So some friends from L.A. rolled into town for a week and managed to pack in quite a bit. They stayed at the new One & Only hotel (review pending – the jury is still out) at the V&A Waterfront and headed out each day, ticking off the various adventures to be had. It was […]
As promised on the night of the SA Blog Awards 2009, I would like to give all the SA Blog Awards nominees the opportunity to order some droolicious Butlers Pizza on my personal account. I didn’t quite get the go ahead from Cape Town’s #1 pizza before I told you about the gift, […]
I saw an old BMW 850 on the road the other day and I still got a bit of tingle – thinking back to how it felt when I first saw one as a kid. God they were cool. they’re still cool. The mind blowing thing about it, was that the shape of the car […]
In an unprecedented move and in response to my recent laments (here and here) about the very dire Cape Town Daim chocolate shortage, I have received a pack of Daim chocolates in the mail from a 2oceansvibe reader! Hmm – what’s this? Whooah!! HEY, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! I would like to take this […]
I didn’t want to get into this, as it is clearly a publicity stunt of sorts, but the emails don’t seem to be stopping and I simply have to say SOMETHING about it. I’m talking about this “National Skirt Extension Project” thing that is being advertised everywhere. So check it out. Here are the ads […]
Just yesterday I was taking a bubble bath at The Safe House and sent out a twat about the provocative Armani ad campaign (here ), depicting a woman removing a man’s clothing – revealing quite a lot, I thought. But then I found this this little piece of madness. “Standing on your head” usually conjures […]
“Kudos” obsessives will definitely give the audacious driver of this Vespa “kudos” for his/her parking ON Camps Bay beach . It is SO brazen, SO radical and SO brilliantly rude, that we should do nothing but stand and applaud. In the words of Montell Jordan.. “THIS IS HOW WE DO IT!” Stand up from […]
Vanity Fair readers will be aware of the name Graydon Carter. Carter is the editor (since 1992) of the greatest magazine in the world and apart from guiding the tremendous success of the magazine for a decade and a half, he is known for his stunning intros to every issue. He moaned in dramatic style […]
You’ll recall some time back I featured the T-Mobile “flash mob” (here)which gathered at Liverpool Station in London, England. Well, it looks like some folk in Belgium felt they should up the ante, which they did with great success – this time at Antwerp Central train station . I got this off Chris Rawlinson’s blog […]
A reader sent me these pics and I thought it was just a screen shot from some sick fantasy dream they were having. But no, this is a genuine concept car. Cover one eye before you look at these shots – it might be too much to handle: Taste it Feel it Hold it […]
