The Defender Of The Faith cruised the new wedding exhibition with Kate on Friday. It’s quite a popular exhibition with 150,000 tickets already sold. They came up to the exhibit which shows Kate’s wedding dress on a seemingly invisible mannequin. Liz pipes, “Horrid, isn’t it? Horrid and dreadful!” Why did she say that, you ask? […]
I must say, this guy really did crack me up. Check out his Shosholoza video. There are tons of other ones – just as funny. Check them out in the “fanzone” here. Do you think you could do better? CLICK HERE to send in your video and you could even win a trip to watch the […]
The Springboks can count themselves lucky that this was a massive weekend for news; a weekend which included an international terror event, the death of a user of massive quantities of drugs, and corruption allegations being lead against a certain J. Malema.
Every week we’re giving away a bottle of Jack Daniels to the person who tweets or emails the best picture of themselves taking a load off, and doing Friday’s the Jack way. How do you do Fridays the Jack way? Chill out, have a drink. Don’t work. Look, there’s very little that you can do, […]
For an organisation with a slogan like “Fight, Produce, Learn”, the ANCYL certainly doesn’t seem to adhere to the “learn” part. For the third time this year, their website has been hacked. Yesterday, a message appeared on the homepage that reads: “HA HA HA. I have a 16 Million Rand house and all of you don’t!!!!”
The younger Murdoch’s credibility was tested last week, after he told a parliamentary committee that he was not aware of evidence that eavesdropping at the News of the World went beyond a jailed rogue reporter. At least three former top executives, including a former editor, have pointed fingers back at James. What happens next is critical to his future.
Nafissatou Diallo – DSK’s hotel maid Finally, DSK’s Maid Speak – The housekeeper at the Sofitel hotel who accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of sexual assault has given a long and tearful interview, with her full name and picture attached, that provides her detailed account of the May encounter — including that Mr. Strauss-Kahn told her “You’re […]
Between 1969-1971, the world lost four unrivaled musicians when Janis Joplin, Brian Jones, Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix all died either by the hand of heroin or another substance. All at the age of 27. This coincidental phenomenon generated the name 27 Club, which chronicles the untimely death of musicians like Kurt Cobain and Robert […]
Well it seems that technique does work. I think many of us have had that chat about “what would you do if” a madman stormed a restaurant and started spraying bullets. I have often said (and if you’ve also said it before, then you heard it from me) that I would play dead. Just lie […]
As DSTV continues to bring out new technologies to disguise the fact that the actual content on Multichoice is a ball of shit, it is with the greatest sense of irony that their very own reality show is playing out and giving the true entertainment value we long for. Yes, it’s true. With all the […]
With this whole News International Rupert Murdoch Phone Hacking Scandal (NIRMPHS) taking over our lives, there seems to be a large misunderstanding in terms of what exactly ‘phone hacking’ is. I will begin by saying that they do not ‘intercept’ calls and listen to live conversations. No, Sir. It’s a lot easier than that. As […]
Earlier this morning, 2oceansVibe reported in morning spice headlines that James Murdoch was accused of misleading British parliament about his knowledge of phone hacking at the News of the World. Two former key players at the paper issued a statement contradicting one of Murdoch’s key claims. Now Cameron wants answers. Real ones.
Vodacom has announced that it will be dropping its data rates by as much as 43% for contract customers and about 39% for those on pre-paid.
Tokyo Sexwale made it fairly clear yesterday that the Julius Malema notion of land redistribution is not what he has in mind for South Africa, as Human Settlements Minister. Oh, and he also called Julius a loud-mouth.
Bakkies might be sneakily becoming the new SUVs of our day. They come under a lot less GreenPeace-fire than big luxury 4x4s, and rightly so. They’ve got great diesel engines which are not only powerful but incredibly frugal to boot, and because the load bay is lined with melted rubber instead of the wool of rare sheep, you don’t mind getting it a bit dirty. I just can’t decide if this is a good thing.
Some of us will probably always be enthralled by the way Heston Blumenthal, world renowned scientific food chef, comes up with what he does. Now, a New York grocery store has started applying one of Heston’s techniques. Namely, pairing real food with artificial scents infused into the air in the store via scent machines, to induce sales.
We all have our lapses of judgment. But some of us make such horrendously poor decisions that one simply has to ask, “What were they on?”. Every week we bring you three contenders in what can only be described as a battle of small wits. So, with great pleasure we present this week’s three La […]

Having debuted his solo career in 2008, making the top spots on numerous SA charts, Jesse has become an established artist in his own right, stepping out of his father’s shadow and making good on the world stage. By the time he was six months old he was on tour with his father, and between […]
One of the last things you expect when heading off to la la land is to wake up with a one-metre wide, 17-metre deep sinkhole beneath your bed, unless your name is Inocenta Hernandez. The city of Guatemala also happens to be built on volcanic deposits and highly prone to sinkholes, which rules out the possibility of nightfarts, although they too can be rather devastating.
Alleged Marilyn Monroe Porn Film Up For Auction – One of the only two known copies of an alleged porn short film starring a yet unknown Marilyn Monroe will be offered at auction in Buenos Aires, EFE reported Wednesday. With a starting price of half a million dollars, the item will be the highlight of […]
Just last week, an interesting fellow was busted trying to smuggle marching powder in his bra and panties, and now this. Are drug smugglers getting more creative, or just higher on their own stash? Seriously. This next lady actually tried to smuggle three kilo’s of coke, under her fake hair. Poor custom’s agents. I guess from now on, everyone’s a suspect.
Former NFL star Isaiah Mustafa, the character from the Old Spice adverts, has received some new competition from former romance novel cover-boy, Fabio. Old Spice did some rebranding last year and Mustafa’s campaign is regarded as one of the greatest viral campaigns ever conceived. One has to wonder what Wieden+Kennedy, Old Spice’s agency, is up to now.

I love bubbly. I can drink it first thing in the morning, just before I sleep, and at every intervening moment. Its racy freshness and cleansing bubbles inspire celebration, comfort the sad and refresh the weary. I have another name for Champagne: joie de vivre.
Wife of the State Security Minister and convicted drug smuggler, Sheryl Cwele, will once again be enjoying her full salary, even though she’s a serious criminal.

If you’ve allowed yourself to fall behind on the latest news and insight on the matter, make sure you click through for a clear and concise explanation by Mail & Guardian editor, Nic Dawes.
BBC News Magazine recently ran a feature on American words and turns of phrase which have entered into language in the UK. This prompted hundreds of responses from people who gave further examples and naturally complained about most of them. Some, in true British style, were truly scathing and really rather entertaining.
