The illegal drug debate is terribly à la mode right now. More than 30 high profile UK figures and celebrities, including Dame Judi Dench and Sting, are urging Prime Minister David Cameron to decriminalise drugs. Co-incidently, this follows Holland’s decision to ban foreigners from its cannabis-selling coffee shops. It would solve the problem for Brits who can’t get their kicks in Amsterdam anymore.
So you’re a mutant… Shame. Genetic anomaly, vat of green liquid goo or ninja turtle – it’s not your fault. You could blame your genes, your father’s tight jeans, the nearest nuclear power station or your mom for dropping you on your head one too many times. Just remember you’re special. No, not “Valentine’s Day” […]
So Joshua Kaufman had his MacBook stolen in March. Which sucks – he reported the crime to the police, but they couldn’t help, due to lack of resources. Except Kaufman has the Hidden app on his MacBook, which lets him remotely stalk and photograph the thief – and put them online. Thanks, Internet.
Last month we told you that Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers was spotted in Cape Town. But what is he doing here? If you guessed having sundowners in Camps Bay or playing with the cheetahs at Spier, you would be incorrect. According to the upcoming edition of Heat Magazine, he is currently a guest at Montrose Place. Yes, as in, the rehab facility.
Social networks were all yesterday with rumours that Will Smith had died on the set of his latest movie, currently being shot in New Zealand.
UPDATE: Blake’s rep have denied these images are real – more here. The first thing one feels when becoming a big star, is the overwhelming desire to photograph or film yourself nude or having sex. From there, the pics are “leaked” and the press publishes them. TV’s Gossip Girl actress, Blake Lively is the latest […]
We featured pics of Kimbo arriving at LAX Airport the other day and although those sights might have satisfied some of the girls out there, I don’t think it fully gave you what you wanted – which is this – an ultra-zoomed in hi-res pic of the $2million rock in question. Put your sunglasses on […]
There comes a time in any man’s life when he is faced with a difficult moral decision. I was going to attempt to outwit The New York Post’s photograph, headline, and strapline on Tiger Woods, but I won’t. Instead I’ll present it as is, in all its symphonic brilliance. I’ll also give it the official 2oceansVibe stamp of approval for best Tiger Woods-related headline to date. It’s a pleasure.
Some people will just always be cool. Take this guy for example – when it comes to making an exit, he’s pretty much nailed it. I love how he manages to hold his beer steady, climb THROUGH the car window one leg at a time without failing, and then drive off nonchalantly into the distance. Now that’s a real boss – respect!
Most people think hip hop is all about guns, bitches, and money. And rightfully so. But long before all this mess it actually started very differently, with one man proclaiming: “The revolution will not be televised.” That man’s name was Gil Scott-Heron, also known as the “godfather of rap” and the “black Bob Dylan”. He passed away over the weekend.
Sean Kingston knows what living the holiday is all about. The cuddly rapper has no problem with the good life, and he’s never appeared to be having anything less than a completely fabulous time. Until yesterday, when he crashed his jet ski into a bridge in Florida.
Hoo. While working their way through LAX airport, Kim Kardashian and her just-recently-announced fiance Kris Humphries made a point of flashing her new bling – you remember, that $2 million custom-designed, 20.5-carat Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring? It’s, um, it’s kind of hard to miss. Click through for our engagement ring photo gallery.
A user at reddit.com promised that he’d put up a billboard in response to Harold Camping’s failed billboard campaign that claimed the rapture was on its way. The billboard reads: “That was awkward”. Somewhat of an understatement I think.
Heh. So apparently they’ve found skull of Saint Vitalis of Assisi, the patron saint of venereal diseases and, it’s going up for auction. Because what else would you do if you found it? Assisi won sainthood for performing miracles on those with bladder and genital disorders in 13th century Italy. Please buy his head.
We are bringing this to your attention for a second time today because it’s really that awesome. “Ladies and gentlemen please stand with me and raise your glasses as I propose a toast,” the president said, putting down his note cards and grabbing his glass. “To her majesty the Queen.” I don’t want to spoil […]
Reality TV stars the Kardashians are renowned for their restraint and general good taste. So one can imagine that last week’s gathering of the K clan to celebrate Kim’s engagement to New Jersey Nets Player, Kris Humphries, was really really klassy. And there’s nothing wrong with bringing in a couple of mini horses covered in glitter, k?
The much anticipated The Hangover comedy sequel, The Hangover… wait for it… Part II has finally arrived and feels so much like the first one, that the only thing that’s really changed is the location, groom-to-be and movie title. So in keeping with the movie’s formula for success… we just updated The Hangover movie review […]
Not only do vuvuzelas make sporting matches sound like they’re being attended by giant, angry bees, but they also emit more germ-carrying particles than regular screaming; testing the amount of bacteria-sized particles emitted by a shout and by vuvuzela,researcher Ruth McNerney found the vuvuzelas a couple of hundred times more effective.
That’s right. This is a Public Service Announcement. The Fish are off on a European tour in a matter of days, and you won’t be able to catch them live in South Africa until October. That’s right. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. Check out the details below for their last SA pre-tour gig. Date: […]
Barack and Michelle Obama received the royal-est of welcomes today in London, when they visited Buckingham Palace to meet with Prince William and new wife, Duchess Catherine. The Obamas were greeted by the Queen and Prince Philip, then enjoyed a short display of pomp and ceremony by the palace guards. Here’s a little video of how that went down.
Ex Springbok captain, Joost van der Westhuizen, who was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease four weeks ago, spoke to Rapport in an exclusive interview saying “I’m fighting this illness with my faith. And my faith is strong.”
Dutch advertising company Interbest gets snaps for their bid to sell ad space on highway billboards. They displayed a chubby, hairy, dude, with an article of clothing removed every day – above the tagline, ‘The sooner you advertise here, the better.’ I know fat jokes aren’t classy, but these just worked.

Why? Because Pope Benedict XVI can do what he wants, I guess. He spent about twenty minutes video chatting with the crew of the International Space Station and the U.S shuttle Endeavour, conveying well-wishes for Gabrielle Gifford’s husband, and generally just shooting the breeze.
Last month we told you about Oliver Hermanus’ Skoonheid – the first Afrikaans feature film to be screened at the Cannes Film Festival. This weekend saw the end of the festival with the all-important awards section, and Skoonheid walked away with the Queer Palm Award! It is given to a film that contributes to lesbian, gay, bi or transgender issues. Three cheers for Oliver!
50 Cent has joined the cast of Odd Thomas, an adaptation of Dean Koontz’ novel, which I don’t really care about. What I do care about is the fact that 50 Cent is playing a blind DJ called Shamus Cocobolo, who will help Anton Yelchin’s “clairvoyant short-order cook” uncover a Satanic plot. No spice.
Ok they are clearly feeding their designer some SERIOUSLY good mushrooms, because this new Goldfish music video for their latest hit, “We Come Together” has completely blown my socks off! And it will blow yours off too. It’s basically a video game. Have you ever had your socks blown off? You should try it – […]
Former Stormers captain and controversial Springbok flank, Luke Watson, was interviewed by Rob van Vuuren and Martin Evans of 2oceansvibe Radio‘s Drive Time Robbery show earlier this week. In the candid interview, Watson ‘fesses up to the fault of his controversial remarks regarding the Springbok jersey, and the Afrikaans-dominated administration of South African rugby. Watson […]
It’s called iPlayboy because, well hell, what else were they going to call it? The appeal here is not so much that you get to see tastefully nude photographs in glorious iPad detail as the fact that the application offers full access tothe Playboy archives – you would own every Playboy issue ever. Welcome to the future.
Anyone who likes their cinema experience to be slightly more challenging than the conventional would have heard of Danish film maker, Lars von Trier. But instead of challenging the crowd with his latest film, Melancholia, starring Kirsten Dunst, it was his attempt at satire during a press conference that has now earned him the title of “persona non grata” at this prestigious festival.
