Supatra Sasuphan, an 11 year-old girl from Bangkok has suddenly gone from zero to hero at school after being named the Guinness World Record’s Hairiest Girl in the World. Ag sweet, man!
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.
Panama defender and Deportivo Pereira player, Luis Moreno is in a lot of trouble after he kicked an owl.
I’ve been rolling with a new range of golf shirts of late, thanks to Merchants On Long. You might have seen them before – with the embroided warrior, raising his shield. Very cool vibe, and something you should probably take a look at. They’re 100% cotton, made right here in Cape Town. So not only […]
Our commander-in-chief had to be rescued by his bodyguards when an unidentified woman got a little too frisky with him at a gala event in Sun City. The party, which was celebrated on the eve of the ANC’s election manifesto, has left our leader with the daunting task of explaining the incident to not one wife, but three. And you thought being president was easy.
Remember Paul? The octopus who predicted the soccer World Cup results. Well, meet Heidi, the cross-eyed opossum who predicted winners for this years Oscars. She came up one pick sort of perfectly predicting the top Oscar awards. She’s a little bit creepy, but cute.
With mainstream local media finding itself plenty to keep busy with over the last few days, a nice little presidential renovation story slipped past almost unnoticed. The top dog is obviously sprucing things up rather nicely at home because it’s costing close to R200 million.
A traditional healer is currently being accused of murder in Pietermaritzburg. But the local community alleges that he is about to employ the services of tokoloshes to tamper with or steal his court dockets.
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.
It’s Show Time! Soldiers and dozens of tanks from the Libyan military’s elite Khamis Brigade, led by Gadhafi’s youngest son Khamis Gadhafi, take positions on Monday about 6 miles outside Zawiya. US Troops Get Ready To Enter Libya – Forces loyal to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi were massed near the Tunisian border on Tuesday and […]
A lot of people said that it would be hard to top last year’s Vibe party – but that was obviously before we pulled out the little ace up our sleeve, in the form of The Grand Cafe And Beach who will be presenting this year’s Vibe party. And for those of you trying to […]
Britain will stop giving aid to 16 countries after a major review found that they were no longer in poverty. Some of these countries have really been freeloading it seems, India for one can afford a frigging space program, but they’re still happy to take aid?!
On the Andrew scale of brilliance this rates a 987.2. On the pages pages that follow you can listen to brief clips of every number one song listed up to 2011.
I guess this is the future’s MacBook photobooth? Using a 3-D printer and a Microsoft Kinect, folks can get small, low-resolution 3-D sculptures of themselves printed, as displayed at the snappily titled Tangible, Embedded and Embodied Interaction Conference last week.
In what is being described as a miracle, a Pretoria man has survived being shot 17 times.
How do you like them apples, Fiddy?
“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.”
Yes, this is EXACTLY the course you need. You enjoy taking pics and you want to get better. You keep on telling people that you would like to improve, but just haven’t found the right course. Here it is, my friend – just look at the title – “University of Cape Town (UCT) Digital Photography […]
It’s basically what everyone’s wanted for most of their lives – a radio show which let’s you tweet a message with your song request. Then it gets played live on air and the DJ reads out your name and whatever ‘shout-out’ you might want to give. It’s too easy! Send your request to @2ovfm and […]
There has been a lot of talk around town about this new MTV reality show they’re filming, called Clifton Shores – and, in particular, the promotional trailer. The trailer was available on YouTube for some time and we received emails confirming that it had vanished. Not to fear, we’ve managed to locate it. Follow the […]
Here is a behind the scenes video from one of Bigsky Productions’ shoots which took place out in Worcester…..ya I said it, Worcester! Thats pronounced VOES-TER! Don’t be shy to roll that “R.” Its not quite Cape Town but pretty damn close. Check it out after the jump.
Most of you will remember the hilarious Airwaves ‘That’s A Bit Extreme” viral videos (here, here and here) that were doing the rounds. But the smoking hot team of angels (Candy Apple and Joy Rider) and McHugeLarge himself, took things to the next level with a competition, giving the public an opportunity to give someone […]
Not only did this guy survive both World Wars and a POW camp, but he also lived to see the age of 110. Now that deserves a salute!
It’s no secret that the Eastern Cape is suffering from one of the most devastating droughts in recent times. Jacki Bilsbury from the Walmer area had a laugh when she read a local newspaper article about pool water theft. She’s not laughing now.
A couple of benches in New Zealand were altered to imprint advertising for Superette short shorts on the back of people’s thighs. This is creepy on a couple of levels, but I’m mostly curious as to how somebody could get the back of their thighs stamped with words and not notice.
While I may not have agreed with all the Oscar winners, I certainly can’t argue with the prizes dished out at the Golden Rasberry Awards on Saturday night (Razzies for short). The Razzies, for those of you out of the loop, honour the worst films of the year, giving the likes of ‘Sex and the City 2’ and ‘The Last Airbender’ their chance to shine.
Hundreds of skinny jeans walked around the CTICC on Saturday evening for the MK Awards – a first for Cape Town. But not everyone who attended thought it was awesome. Quote of the week: “Somewhere Jack Parow cannot be thinking that this mess was quite piele.”
The turmoil in the Middle East has done damage to the fragile oil price, and last week saw a more than 10 percent increase in the price per barrel. As a result we have seen petrol prices increase this month, and March will be no different. The Spanish are being productive about things though, we could learn from them.
