NEWS24 PRINTS THE WORD “CUNT”
11 Sep 2009 by Jasmine Stone / 3 Comments
Well, I tell you what, it’s a BIG moment for South African media. While 2oceansvibe isn’t shy to throw around the odd “shit” here and the odd “fuck” there, I don’t think we have thrown around the “C” word for a number of years. News24, have obviously decided to up the ante by happily publishing […]

It goes without saying that the 10 September YOU Magazine issue which featured yours truly (on page 130) is causing absolute mayhem overseas.

So Marie Claire magazine ran a story (current issue) on shocking fashion and advertising images.

THE 2009 COSMOPOLITAN LINGERIE FASHION SHOW
31 Aug 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
I don’t often suffer from diva-like behaviour. Not because I’m not capable of it, but more because I seem to deal with people who understand good hospitality, rendering the notion impossible. Let’s take Cosmopolitan magazine, for example – who on Thursday night hosted the 2009 Comopolitan Lingerie Fashion Show at Wembley Square. I […]

BLACK GUY / NO BLACK GUY
27 Aug 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 9 Comments
A Microsoft ad published in Poland is causing a bit of a nightmare for the company. You see, the same ad was being used in the US, except the one in the US featured a black gentleman in the middle. He was removed for the Polish version. Enjoy these very average Photoshop skills: Now […]

If you watch and enjoy/hate Top Gear with Jeremy Clarkson, you’ll LOVE this clip. It’s with Harry Enfield and the gang as they take Jeremy Clarkson’s character traits and vibe to the very limit. This is genuine quality. Aaah, God – that was great! [thanks michael]

HOW THE MEDIA WILL PROFIT FROM MICHAEL JACKSON’S DEATH
26 Jun 2009 by Seth Rotherham / 7 Comments
It is interesting to note that American Law dictates that the descendents and controllers of deceased estates cannot sue for libel.
