God , I tell you, I was wiping the tears out of my eyes watching this little nugget of joy. It’s a Pampers ad running in Europe and features 2oceansvibe’s very own G-Man – you might remember G recently starred alongside Oscar winner Louis Gossett Junior in a Windhoek ad . That’s just how he […]
I really do hope that Randall Abrahams doesn’t think all the negative press is a compliment to how well he is playing his “nasty” character on SA Idols. I must make it radiantly clear that this is not the case. Unlike in the US, where people “hate” the nasty judge, Simon Cowell (they do actually […]
In case you missed it, Idols judge Dave Thompson was slated in a recent Mail & Guardian Thoughtleader article. You can catch that article HERE. that was obviously after OUR whole debacle with him and fellow judge, Randall Abrahams. You might be interested that Dave responded to the Mail & Guardian in the letters section. […]
The ABC Network in The States had a reality show recently called True Beauty, in which Joel Rush was a contestant. What makes a person truly beautiful? Executive producers Tyra Banks (The Tyra Banks Show, America’s Next Top Model) and Ashton Kutcher (executive producer of Punk’d and Beauty and the Geek) re-define the concept […]

With the UK’s incredibly powerful sex drive, as well as the latest stories of 13 year olds making babies, it is no surprise that London’s 2012 Olympic Games logo features Lisa Simpson of TV’s most famous cartoon series The Simpsons, going down on an identified man. The London 2012 logo That’s just great. […]
I only watched the Oscars last night, as the live broadcast (early yesterday morning) was on during my dealings with Mercedes Benz. In case you missed my Twitting, I dropped off my car and was put into an A-Class Merc as I joined a lift club from the Culemborg Orbit Motors to The Safe House. […]
I spotted this little article on the Mail & Guardian‘s website, regarding an incident at Idols. I forwarded the story to a friend of mine (The Fruit Farmer) and he said he witnessed the same thing, adding that the kid in question was definitely the kind of kid you wouldn’t want to do that to. […]
Whilst the original nasty judge, Simon Cowell exudes an air of intelligence, the character is once again lost on Randall Abrahams as his increasingly unconvincing facade gains momentum. ..and the hits just keep on comin’ I had another perverted tingle down my back and I turned on the Idols highlights channel for a […]
Another classic from the national broadcaster SABC who, through forced employment, produce continually below-par basics: This, from Clayton S: Yes, folks, the Incredible Comrade Fidel Castro went to University six years before his birth and spent four years underground before busting out. At the tender age of 3, he led a revolution […]
Amazing how Idols is doing “so well,” yet they have urgently changed the rules, following disappointing ratings. SUDDENLY the process has changed from entering into the 12 girls / 12 guys vibe, and has gone straight to a final 14. Desperate measures to save the show in this, the Dying Swan scene. From TVSA: […]
It’s interesting to note that this whole debacle with Idols began when 2oceansvibe suggested that Dave Thompson experienced a Freudian slip when he told a contestant that there might be no a show next year. We even gave reasons for the slip, including the possibility that the show might be going on, but perhaps Dave […]
There is a new Idols show on everyone’s lips, and it’s not on TV. It’s right here on the global intergalactic web! In an unprecedented move, MNET’s IDOLS website have published an article on the official Idols webpage. CLICK HERE for that. In response to Seth Rotherham’s video acceptance of Idols judge Randall […]
Mainstream media have picked up on things, as Number 1 Cape Town radio station, 94.5KFM voice their opinion regarding the email challenge laid down by Idols judge, Randall Abrahams; following Seth Rotherham of 2oceansvibe’s charity acceptance via video this morning. If you’ve missed all the action up to now, read this to get the full […]
You should be pretty up to date now on where we are. If you’re not, I would advise following these links as I give them to you. I was flipping through my satellite TV a few days back and caught 5 minutes of the Idols highlights channel, testing to see if such a short spurt […]
I posted an article a couple days ago about Idols and, in particular, Dave Thompson suggesting the show might not go on. I also expressed dismay at Randall Abrahams playing the nasty character but ballsing up his sayings/phrases when he does so. All of this came after spending 5 minutes on the Idols highlights channel […]
I was watching the Durban auditions of Idols last night on channel 198 and the farce seems to be going ahead for this, the fifth (God help us all) season. And whilst you might not remember who won last year’s competition, you needn’t worry as it looks like they’re finally closing up shop. Dave Thompson […]
I’ve mentioned Louis Theroux to you before. Do you remember? Probably not. I mentioned that his documentary series was available at DVD Nouveau . I also told you about the white supremacist racists that he spent some time with. This included living with the gorgeous blonde monsters, Lynx and Lamb. For those of you aware […]
If you missed the first season then you’ve made a fundamental mistake. It’s available at DVD Nouveau (they are Cape Town’s best DVD rental store and have virtually every series. Ever. In the World), so you can sort that out quick quick. So Season 2 of Californication has started on MNET. It’s on Tuesdays at […]
I told you yesterday about the identity of “The Stig” on Top Gear (turns out there was more than one Stig, btw) and at the end of the article I said the following: It reminds me of a few years back when I finally let the cat out of the bag that I was “Woofles†[…]
Top Gear fans out there will be excited about this, and a bit sad, I suppose. Much like the neighbour in the Tim Allen “vehicle,” Home Improvement, the test driver featured on the hit TV show, Top Gear, has managed to keep his identity secret. Until now.. The Stig This, from Daily Mail: […]
You know the SABC? That’s right, The South African Broadcasting Corporation. Ja, so anyway, they’ve gone and ballsed it up again. Do enjoy this stunning screen shot from a live TV news bulletin, showing a chalk board in the background that should read “Back To School.” The whole of the SABC should consider it […]
I was watching the Louis Theroux interview series on DVD earlier this week. You remember I mentioned DVD Nouveau the other day, right? Ja, so the Louis Theroux series comes highly recommended. By me. That’s right. El stampo of approvio. So anyway, in the one episode, Louis goes to white racist America and spends time […]
It’s not often the energies of the universe pull together to give us things like this. Scott Macintrye is a contestant on the latest American Idol which is on at the moment. Scott Macintrye is blind. Ryan Seacrest is the host of American Idol and is therefore fully aware that Scott is blind. That’s why […]
Whilst Matthew Pearce and Kobus Wiese (with his incredibly strained voice and abysmal English) have succeeded in sidelining Hugh Bladen and have taken South African commentating to another level altogether. Exactly what level that is, is a discussion for another day. But, nonetheless, the subject of sports commentary is fresh in the air. There is […]
I received a call from Dave after the Springboks drilled England 6-42 on Saturday (congas to Barndog and the boys). He mentioned something about the post match interview with and something about a vindictive little journalist. I searched for it on the “internet” but it was too soon after the event to find anything. Naturally […]
It’s been two weeks in a row now that the Luv Sport Spicy Dancing Guy has appeared at the end of the show. He comes out of the studio audience, as if by magic, and proceeds to gyrate in front of the live band, whilst the rest of the studio audience get autographs from the […]
It’s pretty radical stuff being thrown around here, my friends. In short, Bob Skinstad will be hosting tonight’s Luv Sport show via Skype, FROM BERMUDA! It’s what we call “progressive broadcasting” and it’s a first for SuperSport, let alone you. Tonight, 21h10, Supersport 1 (channel 201) Not only will you be able to keep […]
It had to happen. It’s just too much for the freaks’ brains out there. You know, actually auditioning on live TV, and in direct contact with “superstars” like Paula Abdul, Simon Cowell and Randy “Swazi” Jackson. Now look what you’ve done – this, from the New York Post: An “American Idol” reject who was […]
Jeremy Clarkson is in the dwang, as Labour MP, Chris Mole has called for the BBC to sack the popular Top Gear presenter, following some remarks he made on his show. Jezza Clarkson – generally doesn’t care a toss And wait till you find out what he said.. This, from wheels24: BBC asked […]
