The more awesome of you will recall the mention we gave to the song “Island State Of Mind” which was a spoof of Jay-Z and Alicia Keys’ hit “New York State Of Mind.” Instead of being all about New York, the content had to do with Tasmania – a rather humorous take of Tasmania too, […]
It was a night Cape Town will never forget – the launch of South Africa’s first mainstream online radio station. The party took place right next door to the radio studio, in the Cape Quarter Lifestyle Village , 27 Somerset Road, Green Point. For those of you who are new to this vibe, it should […]
Intrepid 2oceansvibers, Uwe Auer, sent in these pics he took of Hollywood actress and Oscar winner Halle Berry. They were taken in Simon’s Town, while filming her new movie “Dark Tide.” You can find out about her new movie here. More pics after the jump.
I haven’t quite gotten over the fact that the word is pronounced “Karee Yokee,” and yet there is no “e” in the middle. But that aside, karaoke fansd and general trickster will enjoy this little video, sent in by one of our fortitudinous LSM 12-14 readers. The video features US songstress, Jewel (would you?), in […]
in-cep-tion [in-sep-shuh n] noun – beginning; start; commencement. When Christopher Nolan releases a film, the world stops and takes notice… The director started making movies when he was just seven-years-old and 33 years down-the-line he’s still doing what he loves with only several feature length films to date. A short filmography by Hollywood standards, but […]
Full time human being impersonator, Gwyneth Paltrow, has given us all a perfectly-weighted surprise (shocks are never perfect) by perfectly capably singing an authentic-sounding but none-too abrasive country music song. It’s titled Country Strong. She reportedly recorded the song as part of the sound track to one or other upper-middle tier blockbuster film about a […]
I don’t know how this one slipped through the radar. Just when I thought people weren’t churning out 100% pure uncut humour anymore, this Ben Folds vide from 2006 surfaces. It’s got him covering the song “Bitches Aint Shit” – the hard-core rap song originally by Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg. But he didn’t just […]
You hear the news? Multi-talented musician and purveyor of all things chilled, Wyclef Jean, is perhaps, potentially, maybe, could-be, considering running as a presidential candidate in the forthcoming Haitian elections. Apparently he’s been tempted to run because of a grassroots youth following lobbying strongly for his political voice in that country. It’s called Face to […]
The original Fight Club with Brad Pitt is on a lot of people’s “Top 10 favourite movies” lists. It’s exciting , it’s scandalous and, for the ladies, one might even deem it sexy. This is exactly what Jane Austen has offered with the upcoming film, “Jane Austen’s Fight Club” which witnesses the uprising of illegal […]
The Expendables will be the manliest movie you will ever watch in your whole life. Warning: Effeminate viewers may suffer death. Written and directed by the star of the film, Sylvester Stallone, The Expendables promises pretty much the same kind of action as Rambo 4, except this time there’s more than one guy with huge […]
Simon Cowell is a news maker. He’s made his mark by being the asshole judge on shows like Idols, America’s Got Talent, and Britain’s Got Talent. More importantly, he’s earned the reputation of an asshole who very seldom makes a bad call. So some might regard the man to be evil, others may hold the […]
That headline is somewhat ambiguous and I should begin by saying this story has nothing to do with Kevin Spacey trying to pickup Al Pacino after reading a copy of The Game. What it does have to do with, is the fact that Kevin Spacey is a master impersonator. Almost as good as Brendan Seery […]
You know who Sarah Palin is, right? She’s that most painful of creatures – a self-righteous, insular hockey mom with the backing of a powerful political party. And she’s also not very bright. Which is perhaps a great reason to keep herself AWAY from social media tools, like Twitter, for instance. The great TweetMachine has […]
Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz are possibly the coldest on-screen Hollywood couple since Montgomery Clift and Shelley Winters, may they rest in peace. Cruise has always been a little distant, giving that looking-into-the-Sun gaze to the point that it’s become more of a glaze. What’s more, he’s embarrassed himself in the media so many times […]
Just yesterday I received an email from a reader saying they watched Just Jinjer in Johannesburg who had this to say: “holy shitballs they rocked amazing stage presence I went with some music mates and they must have creamed their pants several times…especially when they did that water and ice drum solo…INSANE..” Now you don’t […]
You know AB De Villiers, the South African cricket team’s star batsman? Well, he’s singing now – the recorded kind. And, best of all, he’s making music videos for his moer lekker treffers. In his powerful ballad, titled Maak Jou Drome Waar (“Make Your Dreams Come True), AB teams up with previously obscure but presumably […]
You know what could have made Twilight (any and all media produced under that banner) better? This could have. But that’s just personal opinion, correct? Well, seeing as the next graphic comes in the form of scientific data, it’s totally irrefutable.
2oceansvibe Radio has the great honour of hosting South Africa’s leading cellist, Carol Thorns, for even a brief few moments at an upcoming media launch. And whilst I might be fully aware of her talents, and the fact that she is heading to the Edinburgh Festival (25 shows!), I had no idea that she was […]
My GOD, I loved ninja stars as a child! It’s been so long and what better way for the beautiful stars of death to be reintroduced into my life, than in the new Brandon Flowers (The Killers lead singer) solo music video. And not only are they featured in the video, but it’s got Charlize […]
Well with Mel Gibson’s latest rage and George Michael smashing his Range rover into a shop, pissed, one can only be impressed with these quick-off-the-mark thinkers. This, sent in by Nick W, which his mate took and sent him – taken at the very Snappy Snaps outlet which George Michael crashed into. the damage is […]
Love him or hate him, but mostly hate him, Sepp Blatter was the lucky recipient of the Order of the Companions of OR Tambo, bestowed upon his reverend person by the magnanimous nation of South Africa. Well, alright then. You diplomats brown nose each other in whichever way you prefer. But, oh sweet heavens, how […]
In the gulag that Seth has us working in, we have a beating chamber. It’s the one small mercy of my life at 2oceansvibe. When I’m relieved of my duties as a human coffee table (after meetings), I go back to the beating chamber, where I get to break microwaves, furniture and sunglasses from rival […]
I’m feeling all weird inside as I write this, but it would be wrong not to (write this) as one of Hollywoods youngest starlets, Dakota “The Fandog” Fanning, really is growing up. Sure, she’s only 16, but that’s about 28 in Hollywood years. I mean, if you think about it, Roman Polanski would have had […]
THE LINKS IN THIS POST HAVE BEEN FIXED!!! Look, it’s getting a bit silly now as Radar Online releases this, the FOURTH installment of the Mel Gibson tapes. It’s off the charts, as you’ve come to expect (from episodes one, two and three), but I just want to say something here – if you listen […]
“One, two, Freddy’s coming for you!” A Nightmare on Elm Street is one of the most successful horror franchises ever with more sequels than Rocky… giving Freddy Krueger, the burnt man with a fedora and bladed claw an all-access pass to our dreams for almost three decades! After Freddy’s “colleagues”, Halloween’s Michael Myers and Friday […]
Well I’m feeling much better about myself, now that Michael Corleone Al Pacino has become a “brand whore” (as they call it in South Africa) by doing his first endorsement – in the form of a 30 second TV commercial for Vittoria, a brand of coffee. I’m not quite sure what to think, other than […]
Are you getting tired of this yet? I am. In fact, it’s downright sad. I used to be such a massive fan of Mel Gibson, and now this? Radar Online have now released a third installment of “The Mel Gibson Tapes.” These are now available to you for your listening pleasure horror. Mel Gibson – […]
This is turning into a bit of a series, as the second audio tape has now been released by Radar Online. If you missed the first one, where Mel Gibson calls the mother of his child a “whore” and says she looks like a “bitch on heat” and says that she will get “raped by […]
Cape Town vibers, a little blue bird told me that South African muso Farryl Purkiss will be playing an exclusive, intimate gig at a chilled, private venue on the Atlantic Seaboard this evening. The first five vibers to email me (correct email after jump) get their name on the list, as well as the details […]
