Nonhle Thema single-handedly put tweeting excessively in CAPS LOCK and ellipsis back on the map. She has also spent the last month telling her Twitter followers exactly how awesome and untouchable she is… BOOM! But it turns out there might be such a thing as bad publicity after all. You see, M-Net’s Vuzu and Nonhle have apparently “mutually decided to put their on-screen relationship on hold.”

It is a well-known fact that Lady Gaga “draws inspiration” from various sources. And a lot of times she actually receives positive feedback from those she openly imitates. But Bette Midler is certainly not one of those people. The famous redhead recently took to Twitter to berate Gaga for copying her mermaid in a wheelchair routine. “Keep the firecracker tits – the mermaid’s mine!”
By now you are probably familiar with the chaos surrounding Rupert Murdoch’s empire of media companies, including the hacking scandal that has seen “The News of the World” shut its doors after more than 150 years. So it’s only a matter of time before someone makes a movie out of the whole debacle. This is what it would look like.
Many of you may know the frustration of having your video removed from YouTube, simply because you used some insignificant part of someone else’s song. Now Lady Gaga knows exactly how you feel, even worse, she’s had her entire account suspended by YouTube.

But this beautiful lady is about to take her biggest step forward yet: a leading role in an upcoming Hollywood movie. In it, she’ll star alongside Sam Worthington from “Avatar”.
Do you remember Adriaan Bergh? Of course you do. He blessed us with the most incredible viral video to ever emanate from South Africa. Of course, he was merely a Mr South Africa contestent when that was made. Now days, he likes to go by the name of Mr South Africa, 2011. Which, of course, he is. And now, after being robbed, he’s a very angry Mr South Africa.

In 1951, Sean Connery, at age 21, posed for an art class at the Edinburgh College of Art. There, a student, Robert Webster painted him wearing only a g-string and coyly looking over his left shoulder. Sexy art but still art nonetheless! Webster, being a real bro however, never showed these to pieces the public. But he passed away last month and his family feels differently about the situation.
I wrote earlier this morning about a row over the World Cup anthem “Waka Waka”, in which a musician called Dominic James claims that the song by Shakira, featuring Freshlyground, has been incorrectly credited, and has benefitted Freshlyground unfairly. Here is Freshlyground’s reply, which seems to suggest that Sony is mostly to blame for the saga.
According to New York-based musician Dominic James, The World-Cup theme song “Waka Waka” by Shakira and Freshlyground, has been incorrectly credited and has benefitted Freshlyground unfairly. He says that all the original guitar parts of the song were recorded by him and that Freshlyground contributed very little to the worldwide release.
“My nipples were so cold they started talking to me.” I don’t know where to begin. There is simply too much awesome in these videos for me to add anything else. That would spoil it. Ladies and gentlemen, please allow me to make your day, nay, your weekend, by checking out Jean-Claude Van Damme in these beer commercials for Coors Light.
Is it just me or are high-profile types doing an awfully large amount of sexting? There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t see some celebrity that’s in the news for sending naked pictures of himself. And now, To Catch a Predator’s Chris Hansen has made it into the news twice in a week for his pervy behaviour.
Hugh Grant has joined the fray against the News Corp phone hacking calamity and was on hand to deliver his personal perspective of things outside the British House of Commons yesterday. He told the BBC that Margaret Thatcher was an undignified sycophant and that every prime minister since then has basically tickled Murdoch’s belly for him.
Premier of the Western Cape, Helen Zille, co-hosted 2oceansVibe Radio‘s Morning Meeting from 08h00 to 09h00.

This morning Kylie Minogue got down with the Soweto gospel choir, who welcomed her on her arrival in Johannesburg a few hours ago.

Michael Bay, womaniser, loon and director of brilliant movies, such as Pearl Harbor and the Transformers trilogy, has been caught cheating… again, this around time by recycling footage from The Island and using it for Transformers 3.
The twins officially launched their second studio album today, Running To Midnight, and with that, a rather interesting music video for one of the new singles – Stars Above You. The video is pretty well executed and features a rather intense looking Siberian Husky.
Princess Diana has risen from the dead, on the front cover of Newsweek in a picture that shows her walking in town with her new daughter-in-law, Kate. Creepy much?

I come from a rich musical background and was raised – in more ways than one – on the likes of Billy Joel. “Billy Joel Kids” have a very special connection with each other, and tend to avoid songs like Pianoman and Uptown Girl. Not to be snobs about it – but more because those two tunes […]

The elimination of runners for injured players, the use of two new balls from each end in one-dayers, and new regulation around when the batting and bowling Powerplays can be taken, are among the key recommendations the ICC Chief Executives’ Committee has made after its meeting in Hong Kong.
There are some things in life you just don’t do. And hurling your shoes at Henry Rollins ranks up there with the gravest of mistakes. But that is just what one punk did whilst Rollins was trying to conduct an interview with one of his favourite bands. Mr. Rollins responded like the true gentlemen thug he is, as you’ll see from this priceless video.
The infamous red leather jacket worn by the deceased king of pop, Michael Jackson, in his renowned Thriller video, has sold this weekend at an auction in California, for $1.8 million.

Graeme Smith began his exclusive interview with 2oceansVibe Radio on Friday afternoon with this question.
