Yes, ladies and gents, the great rugby machine that is South Africa is about to wake from its festive slumber, and it’s keen to begin stretching those butt-kicking muscles. You guessed it, it’s almost Super Rugby time. And Super Rugby team of course means it’s warm up game time. But since we’ve gotten used to winning, […]
By now you would have noticed, looking at the magazine covers to the left of the page, that the February issue of GQ (UK Edition), features none other than the Victoria’s Secret supermodels.

When deceased property developer and sky-diving enthusiast, Rob Taylor generously donated his Audi R8 to two car guards at the foot of table mountain in January 2010, he probably didn’t bet on those same car guards would have fraud charges brought against them by Taylor’s business partner, and de facto owner of the car.
Alright, so that title may be pushing it, especially considering that the world #2 hasn’t claimed his first ASP World Tour title yet (clue: he will, this year), but with pro surf photographer Ant Fox, Seth and Bruce Good in attendance, it was a pretty darn fine interview.

The phrase goes, “If you can’t handle the heat, get the hell out of the kitchen”. In economic terms, the past two years have been pretty chilly, which has in turn left more than a few businesses owners feeling a little hot under the collar. Controversial Cape Town restaurant, Jardine, is the latest to fall foul of the global recession, and the head chef has made for greener pastures.
Today’s game involves a car that was spotted on the streets of Cape Town. This is a given, as it has a stunning WP numberplate. But the big question is, WHERE in Cape Town was it spotted? More to the point, what suburb? Follow the link to see the answer!

The folks at the Super Top Secret advertising firm are taking any Ed Hardy or Affliction t-shirt you send them and donating the clothing to the homeless. We like to keep our bird/stone ratio pretty solid here at 2ov, so the possibility of lowering the global douchebag quotient and helping out the lower-income brackets appeals.
Having never met before, SA cricket captain, Graeme Smith and SA surf champ, Jordy Smith, finally met at Cafe Caprice this week. Apparently they were downing 2oceansvibe cocktails all night. Because that’s how they….? *Have you spotted any celebs around town? Send ’em through and you will be rewarded 😉
At 12:00PM on Saturday, the 8th of January 2011, three monstrously tough unicyclists and their support car will arrive in at Mouille Point lighthouse after completing a 44-day off-road tour, from Durban to Cape Town, on UNICYCLES.
It was just a month ago that a reader sent in proof that Stodels Nursery was selling ‘Ass Succulents.’ We agreed that this made sense, giving the current demand for Ass Products. But Ass Succulent sales were clearly off the charts, as Stodels is now also selling Pear Ass and Peach Ass. Who would have thought? Check it out after the link.
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.
It’s a special thing, to nail down what is potentially the last TBG (Tall Blonde Guy) sighting of 2010. And what better way to do it than in a place that eclipses his serene beauty and majesty – Kirstenbosch Gardens. And hey, it’s no secret that the TBG once had an affair with Mother Nature. […]

Richard Hardiman managed to squeeze a lunch meeting with Jacques Kallis yesterday afternoon following reports that he had crashed his Audi R8 into his neighbours’ front gate at 02h30 on Tuesday morning. An obviously fatigued Kallis was kind enough to give us a few minutes to chat.
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.
The Silly Season is no better on display than in the hub of silliness, Camps Bay. Our brothers and sisters from the north have arrived, with their vests and muscles and costume jewelry. It’s quite beautiful to watch, my china! I took a little video clip of the action and you just won’t believe what I caught on tape, cycling past.
Never before has a Twitter account been so celebrated. For a man who has spent generations creating happiness and joy throughout the world, it makes absolute sense that The TBG should allow his legions of believers this unprecedented access to his divine and magical ways. What better way to get closer to the great man, […]
What are you doing this Sunday? Sleeping? We thought as much. In the interest of fun and good health, we urge you to head down to the Heineken Five A Side Soccer Challenge at Hamiltons Rugby Club tomorrow. That’s right, we’re urging. Anyhow, the afterparty is likely to be rather good, what with the country’s […]
There are some shopping malls in Cape Town that are not very much fun to visit. Retail and culinary quarters, on the other hand, are packed full of celebrities, and the Cape Quarter is one of them. But they’re not content with providing you with eye candy, they want to give you free Boschendal bubbly, too. Click through for details.
It’s common knowledge that I claimed Natalie Portman when she was a lightie – back when she played the role of Matilda in The Professional (AKA Leon). Sure I was ridiculed for backing someone so young, but kyk hou lyk hy nou! She has blossomed into an absolute murderer and no-one can take her from me. Why? Because I claimed her first. Enjoy this vid..

I kid you not, I arrive at my usual spot on Camps Bay beach on Sunday morning and guess who happens to be lying there, yip the girls from Clifton 4th. But it gets better people, after the jump you will see why.
Unicycling has arguably been around since there have been wheels and chairs. That’s just science. Charity has been around for a pretty long time too. So it’s fitting that these two ancient disciplines would come together in the Counter Balance ‘Freedom Revolution Tour,’ which is raising funds to provide disadvantaged school kids with shoes.
