Initially instituted as a service to monitor the safety of our local and surrounding shorelines during the World Cup last year, the Long Range Identification and Tracking (LRIT) system is a welcomed spin-off from a successful local concept for maritime protection. It will also help to track shipwrecks and oceanic pollution.
Angry Birds is probably the most popular mobile game at the moment and I am entirely hooked. I have stopped shaving and I don’t bath anymore. I am literally covered in my own filth and surrounded by empty McDonalds Happy Meal boxes. But I finally did take a break when I saw Conan O’Brien’s life-size version of the game. Enjoy.
On this the official hour of the application of the Cape Town Friday Rule, we thought we would spoil you a little. Yes, he’s doing a cooking show because he’s winning television right now. And with lines like: “I killed this cow myself, winners stalk and kill their food without earthly weapons,” get ready for some winning recipes.
I first heard about their new music video on News24, but that story was to do with the fact that Die Antwoord’s new music video, ‘Rich Bitch,’ could not be viewed in South Africa. Even though it is on YouTube, a message appears, stating ‘blocked for territories outside of the US and Canada.’ Thankfully 2oceansvibe’s […]
The winning just doesn’t stop. The Gregory Brothers, famous for shredding and stretching popular Youtube videos into very catchy pop songs with visuals, has taken Charlie’s winning to the next level. Find their video and other Charlie spoofs after the click. After that thank me for making your day.
You’ve probably heard the news that Justin Bieber appeared on an episode of CSI. What they didn’t tell you is that he looks exactly like a lesbian who got punched in the eye after losing a game of pool, and that he gets killed by the CSI cops. We’ve got spectacular visuals for both – after the break.
2oceansvibe caught up with the director of the biggest forthcoming sci-fi film of the year, Battle: Los Angeles. Jonathan Liebesman is a born and bred Joburg boy making big waves in Hollywood, and an avid Proteas fan. With subject matter ranging from film research and alien weaponry, to comparisons with contemporary director Christopher Nolan and […]
British actor Daniel Craig has appeared in drag for a video ad to mark International Women’s Day, which is celebrated today, 8 March. During the video Craig, renowned for his role as womanising spy James Bond, is educated on the state of women’s rights around the world by none other than Dame Judi Dench.
When you’re a high-profile individual and in the public domain, your online ‘footprint’ should probably be the first thing that you safeguard. With William Booth as her lawyer, it is surprising that this particular “Lady Amelia Spencer” Flickr album has not been password secured or shut down – especially when she is in the middle […]
Jay’s pad.. Great Gatsby Mansion To Be Torn Down – It could be a tragic ending for this mansion. The Sands Point, L.I., mansion that was said to be author F. Scott Fitzgerald’s inspiration for his legendary novel “The Great Gatsby” is about to be demolished, Newsday reported. After sitting on the market at $30 million, the […]
When you go and see U2 in concert you expect a religious experience of some kind. And why wouldn’t you? God is on lead vocals after all. And the price of the ticket leads you to believe He’s going to pay you some special attention, forgive you for your sins and send you on your […]
There has been a lot of talk on the net about Ryan Reynolds’ new girlfriend whom he was spotted with at the Woodstock Biscuit Mill market. No-one seems to know her name but luckily our buddies over at GQ managed to get this shot and they have confirmed her name is Agnes Fischer. Well done […]
I love Isaiah Mustafa. You love Isaiah Mustafa. But the honeymoon is over, Isaiah, and it’s only right that you show us a little more than your honey-glazed eyes or perfect teeth. Take us behind the curtain; show us how you make the magic happen, commercially.
Everyone knows that cricket players only play cricket to enable their true passion in life: the scoring of chicks. Cricket players are even better at scoring chicks than rugby players: Fact!
Charlie Sheen has just been awarded the Guinness World Record for “Fastest Time to Reach 1 Million Followers on Twitter” Yes, in case you missed it, that was another win. And it only took him 25 hours and 17 minutes.
I’m not even going to bother with an introduction to what the one-man wrecking ball Charlie Sheen has been up to recently, because the chances are that if you are alive you already know. But as it is Friday I thought I would share this piece of comedy gold with you.
In case you guys were worried that you wouldn’t be seeing Anne Hathaway in vinyl leather anytime soon, fear not: Hathaway has confirmed that she’s been cast as Selina Kyle in The Dark Night Rises, the third in Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy. Please don’t talk about Halle Berry.
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange, is attempting to trademark his name for use in “public speaking services” and “entertainment services.” Personally I’d exercise a little more energy on the whole ‘I’m being extradited to Sweden for charges of rape and sexual assault,’ thing, but maybe this is more important.
So hey, if you aren’t up-to-date on the adventures of Charlie Sheen, warlock, this video summarizes it pretty well. There really isn’t that much exaggeration coming from the animators; they’re just displaying Sheen’s claims to possessing “fire breathing fists,” and F-18 – like qualities. Notice the Snow-man.
“You ask me if I have a God complex. Let me tell you something: I am God” should be Charlie Sheen’s new mantra after his first TV sit-down interview since he lashed out at Two and a Half Men’s producer last week. Looks like raking in $1.25 million per episode has really gone to his head.
He shrugged off his recent antics as “epic, epic behaviour.”
You guys remember all that hoo-ha over Gervais’ Golden Globes bit? It was pretty great. In all likelihood, that’s why the Oscars are being hosted by similarly scathing comedians, Anne Hathaway and James Franco. Sweetheart that he is, Gervais has offered them some free material, “in case they have a few minutes to fill.”
If you have not watched “The Hangover” then there is something wrong with you, as it’s one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen and I have very good taste. Thankfully the producers of “The Hangover” have seen it fit for us to be granted a new Hangover movie, aptly entitled “The Hangover 2”. Here’s the first sneak peak.
Never mind Libya, the biggest story this week has been Justin Bieber’s hair. And yesterday things got even more exciting (if you’re a tween), when the pop culture deity decided to donate a lock of his mane to another famous lesbian, Ellen DeGeneres. She then did what any other sensible person would do when receiving such a prized gift, she put it on eBay.
Last week a very drunk gate-crasher at Paris Hitlon’s 30th birthday party managed to steal her $2 000 birthday cake.
Music executive Steve Stoute took out a full-page advert in the NYT’s Styles section on Sunday to display his open letter to the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, slamming the Grammys for having become “a series of hypocrisies and contradictions.”
British pop icon, Annie Lennox, was spotted this morning in popular Cape Town artisan coffee shop, Origin. Lennox recently appeared in the South African news cycle after reports emerged that former UCT Medical Director, Dr Mitch Besser (56) had left his wife for Lennox. Click through for a pic of the couple.
Witnessing U2 in concert was a big deal for a lot of people, but spotting Ryan Reynolds (in town shooting a film with Denzel Washington) at the concert may well have increased the blood pressure of a few young ladies! We managed to get hold of a few pics of Ryan Reynolds at Friday’s concert. […]
Adriaan Bergh has done the unthinkable, the unbelievable, the improbable, even. Adriaan Bergh has been crowned Mr South Africa, 2011. Can. You. Believe. It. Click through for the road to glory.
Well hey, this could be fun. Since Jon Favreau – director of Iron Man and its sequel – decided not to sign on for the series’ third installment, Marvel’s been on the hunt for a suitable replacement, and it looks like Shane Black, writer of Lethal Weapon and director of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, is the guy.
One of the classic moments during last night’s U2 concert at Cape Town stadium was when Bono and Yvonne Chaka Chaka covered the classic Ben E. King hit, “Stand by me.” The whole also sang along. We managed to catch the moment on video camera. Follow the link to check it out!
