I come from a rich musical background and was raised – in more ways than one – on the likes of Billy Joel. “Billy Joel Kids” have a very special connection with each other, and tend to avoid songs like Pianoman and Uptown Girl. Not to be snobs about it – but more because those two tunes […]

It is decided. When I grow up I want to be Ricky Gervais – that funny guy who hosted the Emmy’s. He was also the creator (and star) of The Office and Extras.

The fourth season of True Blood kicks off in America on Sunday night, and it has a South African cast member! No, they haven’t written the tokoloshe into the plot (yet).

It’s not clear exactly what Amy was on when she performed in Belgrade on Saturday night, but whatever it was, it was a lot. During her 90 minute performance, Winehouse managed to mumble mostly and may have even hallucinated a few times too. The next few legs of her European tour have obviously been cancelled.

Nicholas Read, famous for playing dwarf and/or other small-statured fantasy-related characters in movies, recently sat on a bus with a hat on his lap. True story.

Cape Town’s very own Locnville – a twin due “electro-pop” music act, found themselves in the middle of a fight on Thursday night in Claremont. Apparently it was in the ‘early hours’ so I would imagine this came after they were ripping it up at Tiger Tiger – which is where I would have been […]
The ANC Youth League is not very happy with Idols judge Gareth Cliff. In fact, they have called for him to be axed from the show. The reason: he said that the youth of Polokwane have no talent.
