I don’t often suffer from diva-like behaviour. Not because I’m not capable of it, but more because I seem to deal with people who understand good hospitality, rendering the notion impossible. Let’s take Cosmopolitan magazine, for example – who on Thursday night hosted the 2009 Comopolitan Lingerie Fashion Show at Wembley Square. I […]
A Microsoft ad published in Poland is causing a bit of a nightmare for the company. You see, the same ad was being used in the US, except the one in the US featured a black gentleman in the middle. He was removed for the Polish version. Enjoy these very average Photoshop skills: Now […]
Right, ok, did anyone check out the Cape Times front page this morning? If so, there may be more to it than you thought. Standard stuff? Just you wait.. As expected, it featured the ongoing gender-bender saga of South African female athlete, Caster Semenya. Bless her and all that, but did you read […]
What a wonderful website I have found for you! It will be enjoyed by both male and female readers (enjoying the much-celebrated perfect 50/50 gender split enjoyed by 2oceansvibe). The website is called The Art of Manliness and can be found, funnily enough, at www.artofmanliness.com www.theartofmanliness.com There are so many topics on the […]
This must be the find of the century! FINALLY, you can keep a beady eye on Cape Town’s traffic situation and possibly change your route and/or timing to suit. Just by going to THIS website. Check this out, taken yesterday at 17h23, as you get onto the N2 next to the entrance to le Waterfront. […]
2oceansvibe Character “The Surfer” (AKA Anthony Fox) is making his name as a surf photographer and certainly took things to the next level this morning as the Cape Times published his pic of Twiggy Baker surfing “Dungeons” on the front page. The wave vs. prison ordealI’ll take the wave.. Quite a mean vibe. […]
I referred to a website the other day called Behind The Scenes. You can check it out at www.behindthescene.co.za It’s by a Cape town guy living in London. He does it very nicely and stops to observe the interesting and crazy things around London and surrounds. He does it well and it’s usually pretty thought […]
Well I don’t know if she had an actual LAUNCH or anything – but the fact remains, it’s there! It’s a blog called Hurricane Vanessa, and the writer is none other than Vanessa Raphaely. hurricanevanessa.wordpress.com As editor of the South African Cosmopolitan (and Editorial Director of Associated Magazines, publishers of Marie Claire, O, […]
LA tabloid blogger and the epitome of bad health, Perez Hilton, was caught smelling 2oceansvibe’s jockstrap as one of his cockroaches captured us getting some footage for part 6 (part 2 comes out today) of the 2oceansvibe Pauly Shore Zinzi series, currently being shot in Los Angeles. Perez “carbs” Hilton shows his uncoolness by not […]
I trust you caught the article the other day about how Obama unwittingly helped promote the new Rugby World Cup movie, after Nelson Mandela SUDDENLY received an ESPY award for his connection to sport some 15 years ago? Oh you missed it? No problem – here it is right here. Morgan Freeman and Matt […]
If you watch and enjoy/hate Top Gear with Jeremy Clarkson, you’ll LOVE this clip. It’s with Harry Enfield and the gang as they take Jeremy Clarkson’s character traits and vibe to the very limit. This is genuine quality. Aaah, God – that was great! [thanks michael]
Here in Los Angeles, the heart of La-la-land, anything is possible. There is a saying I made up many years ago, which Murray Walker stole from me and it goes like this: Anything can happen in Los Angeles, and it usually does! Take, for example, the tabloid magazines. Now, it’s one thing reading the likes […]
Our non-ex-pat readers on the continent and beyond may well appreciate a translation. The headline for the article to the top-left of the meat advert is to do with a worker who died after falling into a “meat machine.” Nice. Very mellow. Hey! Look at those lamb chops for only 28 bucks!! Are they […]
Absolutely gorgeous. Charlotte Hawkins IS an angel.. SKY NEWS, mornings, DSTV channel 402. I enjoy her. So will you.
Just look at it slowly and let it sink in. Embrace it. HANNAH MIN TANNE Hey? Hannah MinTanne? Come on, man!! It’s pure unadulterated GENIUS! Well done, snaaksgenoeg.co.za ! [thanks brett] ps. to our non-afrikaans speaking readers out there, “Min Tanne” means “few teeth” and happens to sound similar to the original to […]
Some folk seem a bit unhappy with Springbok coach, Peter de Villiers. So much so that moments like this are being highlighted.. Peter de Villers – ASOL I see what you did there. Good. [thanks ilan]
Cape Town suffers from late night drunk texts just as much (possibly a tad more) as the rest of the world. You know the ones. When you wake up in the morning and see a string of “WHERE ARE YOU???” texts and booty calls from various girls and boys, sent at 3am. Or, should I […]
It is interesting to note that American Law dictates that the descendents and controllers of deceased estates cannot sue for libel. So take into account the amount of borderline sensational stories were always waiting to be told about Michael Jackson, but were held back through fear of legal and financial damage.. And go! […]
Remember a few days ago (here) where we suggested they follow up on this fat kid vibe? Ja, well they’ve gone and done it. For those of you who missed this whole Megan Fox Rose Boy vibe which has been going on for a couple weeks (there are always a few), BASICALLY this cute little […]
Wow, it’s all happening! For those of you who have just tuned in, ex security guard and Springbok rugby captain, Joost van der Westhuizen, was recently involved with a stripper in a hidden sex tape cocaine scandal. Or, should I say, “skandaal!” You can check out our past coverage on that here, but today we’re […]
There have been all sorts of claims and suggestions as to the Top Gear TV show mystery precision driver, The Stig’s identity over the years. While it is understood that they have changed from time to time (previous article here), yesterday’s Top Gear show (jokingly) revealed someone who you probably didn’t expect. One of the […]
Advertising industry peeps will enjoy this. It’s a typical representation of rubbish work coming out of a “reputation” agency. All sorts of punishment is being dished out in the comments section under the release of a video made by TBWA\Chiat\Day – a New York ad agency who have just taken on a new Creative Director, […]
NO.WAY! Ok, this guy’s vibe is fairly luminous. You gotta check out his website at www.ferrariguyforhire.com (ja, you read that correctly – Ferrari Guy For Hire). He basically offers a service which revolves around being a passenger in his red convertible Ferrari with, wait for it, 24 KARAT GOLD WHEELS! Enjoy the bottom right […]
A number of my friends have a man-crush on Bear Grylls, the guy that hosts and appears in the TV show Ultimate Survival. You know the one – where you see Bear pushing it to the extreme, living in jungles and nearly dying on home made rafts out and sea and eating bugs, and starving […]
The following contains zero spice. As you know I’ve been doing some work with TheBombSurf.com. It’s owned by John McCarthy who used to be involved at Zig Zag magazine in the early days and started this new vibe from scratch. He contacted me a while back and mentioned something about his new surf website and […]
Gee whiskers! I don’t know if I should tell everyone that I cracked a mention in this month’s Cosmopolitan Magazine’s Editor’s Letter, or if I should keep it quiet so no one finds out I bought the mag before I heard about it! Not that you can blame me for buying it. Try this cover […]
RELAX! I won’t write the name on the screen and spoil it for those who think they can avoid all global mainstream media in the lead up to the day the final is played on South African television. So, those of you who want to know who won American Idol, check out this video. […]
One of the down sides about having Google AdSense ads displayed on one’s website is they have a mind of their own. And by “down” sides, I mean “hilarious” sides. How Google AdSense works, is the code which produces the ad actually reads your webpage and will publish an ad depending on the content – […]
In one of our most celebrated articles for quite some time (here), we featured a radio conversation between Radio 702’s Redi Direko and ANC Youth League spokesperson, Floyd Shivambu, where they attempted to discuss what he meant by his earlier statements claiming that Helen Zille was “sleeping around.” If you didn’t listen to that, I […]
I spotted The Killers performing at the end of The Late Show with David Letterman (the one with Tom Hanks). They were SO pumped it was RADICAL! I was genuinely sucked in and was just staring at the screen with my mouth open, covered in goose bumps. They had a full orchestra there as well. […]
