Katy Perry is widely regarded as one of the world’s most beautiful women. Russell Brand has shattered that perception. There really is something to be said for the argument that social media should not breach the boundaries of a man and wife’s marriage bed. Click the link to see what I’m talking about.
Joost van der Westhuizen’s role-model reputation in South Africa is shot to pieces. The man must be acutely aware of that fact, because you don’t just waltz into a toy store and drop forty grand on toys for homeless children without either checking with your book keeper, or your PR agent, first.
Christians everywhere, present company included, are feeling various levels of indignity, ranging from mild irksomeness to apoplectic rage, and they’re directing those emotions toward the much beloved BBC television show, Top Gear. The show depicted the Stig as Baby Jesus, which is just plain wrong. We already know Baby Jesus, and he;s not the Stig.
Since Hollywoodland, he’s been on the comeback trail. Although, it’s not that difficult when you’re following up roles as a blind superhero in Daredevil and Jennifer Lopez’s play thing in Gigli. This is the life of Ben Affleck, whose career has been peppered with the good, the bad and the ugly.
Intertextuality makes movies better. Think about it – you can take the already awesome ‘The Prestige,’ and turn it into a film where Wolverine and Batman are rival magicians – and Batman has a clone. See how much better that is? Read the list below, and learn how to make movies better – with more movies
This time last year Tiger Woods was embroiled in that infamous scandal, which had the vultures at the tabloids clicking their poison pens. A year later and the safety razor group known by 99% of the facial hair-growing community as Gillette, is cutting all ties. Hank Moody gets away with the odd dalliance, but the world’s most renowned golfer is still reeling.
Hey guys. Men. Let me tell you something. Not often, but every so often, you spot that sort of lady. That special sort of lady that makes you think, “Oh if only I could take her in my arms, and we would slow dance like the night would never end!” With these tips, you might just get that chance. But probably not.
You can’t touch this! No, you most definitely can. Check out the 2oceansvibe Radio interview with the Hammer in the afternoon prior to his Cape Town gig, after the jump.
This past weekend I suffered the doppelganger effect. It’s that moment of television watching when, just as the sofa threatens to ingest your lumpy physique, your whole body surges forward violently, propelled by sudden realisation. Kevin Pietersen met the Cable Guy in my mind’s eye.
Due Date is delivered to screen by Todd Phillips, who is the quintessential frat house comedy director with The Hangover, Road Trip, Old School under his belt and The Hangover Part II in the works. If it were a baby, it’d be a poison dwarf: ginger-bearded, brutally funny and pretty darn mean. However, it’s not […]
The Associated Press, bless them, voted Betty White as top entertainer of the year because she starred in a Snickers ad and stays on longer than an iPad. Look, I love tannie Betty but if you put entertainer and 2010 in the same sentence you kind of want to throw these names in there too.
Let’s be honest – you don’t read this website all day. Half a day, tops. So how else do you keep entertained? Not by watching DStv, that we know. They’re showing Jetsons: The Movie and we’re smack in between two cricket tests. Desperate times, indeed. Here’s help.
This is a cautionary tale. You get new hair, and your life will change. This is the news: Jacques Kallis crashed his Audi R8 (excellent taste, JK) supercar into his neighbour’s gate at 02h30 this morning. Now let it be known, hair implants will increase your self-confidence to dangerous levels.
Irish people are generally funny. And I’m allowed to say that, because my mother is Irish. So when someone tells you that you have funny irishmen on your hands, you know that something special is in the offing. Presenting the Rubberbandits, an irish comedic duo from Limerick. And they have a horse outside.
Our readers send a ridiculous amount of rubbish, some of it newsworthy, some of it funny. Some of it just lame. But when a reader sends a link, with just the words ‘You’re Welcome’ – you kind of take notice. That takes confidence – he or she is putting their balls on the line head on a block.
Such was the case of one David K.
He did good.
Watch this video. As a complete sideshow, it features Jessica Alba. No spice.
Afrikaans has been the du jour global parody language of 2010, sonder a doubt (we’re looking at you, Die Antwoord).
So it’s only fair that we round out the year with an Afrikaans parody of The Lonely Island’s beloved Dick In A Box SNL skit.
First she tries to bite his head off but her flimsy little jaw can’t manage then she puts him under her stiletto and rams his fluffy head into the stage. Getting emotional here. Everybody’s cheering then the Gaga woman screams ”I hate the Holidays!” at the top of her lungs. Full on tears now. I’m crying.
American reality TV and sex-tape star Kim Kardashian poses for fans at the Rand Club in Johannesburg. Kim and her sister Khloe are in the country for the launch of Brutal Fruit’s new flavour called ‘Cherry Porn Cranberry.’ (Photo by Gallo Images/City Press/Lucky Nxumalo)
Kim and sis Khloe were stranded in Cape Town on the weekend and tweeted about it throughout their ordeal. There were talk of peeing, cries for help and a surreal tubular reference.
A Christmas reunion on someone’s dad’s side hanged in the balance as sad faces flew all over the place. It was a wild, wild ride.
Well, obviously. It does most weekends. Mostly it talked about don’t-ask-don’t-tell being repealed, which is splendid – but I was focusing more on what was being said about bikes. Bikes and cars. Bikes and cars and pedestrians, and their relationship to one another. The word ‘prawn’ was implied, but not quite stated.
We quietly dominated Dunes in Hout Bay for Ard Matthews and Just Jinjer’s ninth-year-in-a-row performance on Saturday afternoon. And what a killer day it was. The mussels were great, the babes were awesome, and band was just sublime. They played all the hits – new and old. Including one of my faves, Like You Madly – check the video!
Independent Newspapers has been providing us with little gems of unintentional wordplay for years now. And when they’re not reporting that X politician has been fingered by Y investigative body (how many times could you withstand that kind of interrogation before you cracked?), they’re making pictorial gaffs. Please enjoy this little piece of joy.
I know – it’s December, you’ve got this big pseudo-Christian consumerist monolith being forced down every available orifice imploring you to spend more money on This New Shiny Thing, and maybe you’re a little sick of that right now. I understand that. But believe me when I say that this is a freaking awesome advert.
Pakistan’s relations with the U.S. were talked up pretty heavily in the latest Cablegate leaks; further, false leaks with heavy anti-Indian sentiment were spread around the country by major national newspapers. So it’s nice to see the Pakistani advertisers make the most of an awkward situation.
Well, it’s not like they had them explode from a cake and huskily sing ‘Happy Birthday, Mr. Jesus,’ but this comes pretty close. But hey, good thing they don’t allow gay folk to become Popes, right? Otherwise that creepy look on his face would be pretty hard to explain away.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association went out of their way to market this year’s Golden Globe Awards as a showcase for stupidity. They nominated a guy who thinks Russia’s music unites the world and a movie that tanked at the box office. Then again, that’s what we’ve come to expect from the Oscar’s ugly cousin.
It seems that if you’re blue, you’re in vogue… well that’s if pop culture in 2010 is anything to go by with James Cameron’s Na’vi tribesmen in Avatar, The Smurfs feature film and now our giant blue-headed villain in Megamind. Perhaps Andy Warhol was really onto something with his colour transition duplications of Marilyn Monroe and John Wayne’s heads when he coloured […]
My, was I surprised by the results when I typed “christmas tree” “tits” into Google Images. There’s one with a guy stealing a tree, Paris Hilton and Britney Spears next to what could be a Christmas tree or just some tree and a card that says, ‘Merry Titmas’. Listen to me rambling on. Why don’t I just show you.
We take a break in our schedule to give you a classic compilation of animals being hysterical. It’s so easy for us, as humans, to mock animals – we’re just so much more advanced than them. I mean, who came up with TV? And you don’t see them driving around in cars, right? God, they’re so thick! No internet for them either!
Well done, Internet. This thing has come more or less full circle – please, enjoy singers from Liberty University in Virginia performing a Chrismas carolified version of the ‘Bed Intruder Song’ that autotuned its way into your hearts so many months ago.
