Like most people my age, I know every word to every song of Dirty Dancing – let alone every word uttered by Patrick Swayze in the film (we won’t even get into Road House). It just came at the right time and nailed me square between the eyes. A cousin of mine and I used […]

When someone told me that Vanilla Ice is coming to perform in South Africa, I told him he was talking rubbish. That’s when he grabbed me by the arm and said, “Hey, Seth, why don’t you just stop, collaborate and listen for a change!” Vanilla Ice I did, and It looks like it’s […]

I was in “comms” with Dom Peters from Goldfish this week and, while he and Dave are carving up the earth and the models that come with it, that doesn’t mean they don’t miss the fairest Cape. Dom writes: Off to London for the weekend, then Barcelona on Monday, then Brazil for a week. […]

We pause for a second to peruse Avril Lavigne, spotted on a yacht in the last week or so – somewhere in St. Tropez. I must be honest, I’ve always had a soft spot for Avril. And that was before she started doing things like that. Although I am concerned at how her body […]
