The 90s were a simpler time, when Saturday mornings involved Reggie’s Rush and people playing Sonic over the phone.
Forward, forward, grab – yep, those were good times.
If any of that rings a bell there’s a good chance you might remember Candice Hillebrand, the blonde presenter who became a household name during her stint with M-Net.
Some in the office also remember a few shoots she did for FHM and GQ – someone on YouTube was enough of a fan to put those photos to a backing track, if that’s your thing (HERE).
Anyway here at 2OV headquarters we were chatting about the days of old, and Candice’s name came up. This prompted some Google searching, so here’s a brief overview of what we found.
Candice does have an IMDB page, although she hasn’t starred in anything in a while. The last listing back in 2010…
It seems the question of what she’s up to these days is an old one, with this from Channel24 back in 2009:
She signed with South African independent record label Musketeer Records and released her debut Chasing Your Tomorrows in 2003.
“People seem to live for the future rather than for the moment,” Candice says of the title. “It’s the nature of the world we live in, work jobs we hate to buy things we don’t need.” She was always smarter than we gave her credit for being.
In 2004 Candice signed a 5 album deal with Sony UK and pulled her debut record from the shelves to re-record the album in London…
She released an international version of the album with Sony UK in 2005. Sadly the do-over didn’t do much and the album barely made an impact.
They then reference her role in 2010’s Tekken, saying that she resides in California and is giving the acting a real bash. There’s this video from a YouTube channel SovereignTalentGp, but this was also posted in 2009:
That’s a solid seven years ago, and there hasn’t been much buzz since then.
In case you’re wondering if she’s found love here’s what the site WhosDatedWho turns up:
Possibly single – really done your homework there, chaps.
THIS looks like Candice’s Twitter account, which lists her as a ‘WWE Diva’, but the last tweet was sent back in 2013.
All of this leaves us wondering where Candice is at these days, and how she’s keeping herself busy. Maybe you know more than we do, in which case you should let us know by emailing editor@2oceansvibe.com.
I think it’s safe to say that she’s doing better than Bad Brad off Big Brother, though (HERE).
