In an incident that the Catholic Church will almost certainly deem a great work of faith, Italian New Years celebrator Darco Sangermano sneezed a miracle.
Temptress, tart, floozy, flirt, cheap, tramp, harlot, trollop, easy, ho’… are just some of the endearing terms you’ll hear being thrown around the playground these days. Pubescent promiscuity is nothing new – think back to that adult movie Kids or a little further back to Sodom and Gomorrah.
Yesterday we had a comment on our story, Rob Taylor Took The Ultimate Jump which prompted us to do a little extra digging. Professionals suggest that his unusual behaviour leading up to his death may have been a result of drug use or a mental health ailment.
So. ‘Phoenix Jones,’ some dude in Seattle who wears a cape/mask outfit and stops crime with a stun gun and fists got his nose broken over the weekend after trying to stop a night-time brawl. Surprise! Local police have advised Jones and the rest of his super-team (‘Red Dragon’ & ‘Buster Joe’) to stop getting involved in dangerous situations.
South African police commissioner and original gangsta Bheki Cele was really impressed with his police work yesterday when he swooped down from on high in his mighty helicopter.
The target of his wrath was a house in the township of Katlehong, East of Johannesburg, where police minions had found a large arms cache.
A judge put his foot down and ended the trial between the Associated Press and Shepard Fairey, the artist who painted 2008’s most famous image. The AP said the dead beat (their words) artist took their photograph and copied it with crayons and pens and things. He said are you crazy, it’s art. They said are you crazy, it looks exactly the same. I don’t think the judge had a choice.
I don’t know how to feel about this. I loved Fight Club the way you love an eccentric uncle; it was weird and it stank of smoke and made people feel uncomfortable, but it was awesome. The fact that it’s director, David Fincher wants to revisit it is great; the whole ‘musical’ angle is where I start panicking.
UK student, Edward Woollard, has been sentenced to two years and eight months behind bars for violent disorder. What kind of violent disorder, you might ask? The kind of violent disorder that sees you lob a large fire extinguisher at the potentially mushy heads of policemen eight stories below you. And he got very close. Watch the video after the break.
[image:game-reserve.com] Five Rhino Poachers Shot Dead – Five rhino poachers have been shot dead in the Kruger National Park since Saturday. Three of them were shot dead on Tuesday morning shortly after 06:00 during a shoot-out with rangers in the Pretoriuskop area. According to information obtained confidentially by Beeld, no fewer than ten poachers have […]
Michael Douglas has beaten cancer and says it’s largely thanks to the strong genes bestowed upon him by his father, Kirk. Kirk Douglas is 94 and still as strong as a canary. Michael Douglas’s mother is pushing 90. If my calculations are correct that means he will live for at least 30 more years.
If you’re planning a trip to Acapulco Mexico in the hopes of getting into the Mexican drug-trade, it’s best that you have a rethink; as it appears that the drug cartels in Mexico really are as horrifically and creatively violent as they are on TV.
It’s not every day that a global superstar and childhood hero of many, with 2 million followers on Twitter, downloads your online radio station and gives it a tweet. But that day happened today for 2oceansvibe Radio, when MC Hammer blasted out this little beauty! Click the link to check it out. It is, essentially, Hammer Time…
If you’re big into conspiracy theories about how the United Stated government spends its time covering up the dastardly deeds that it commits, perhaps it’s time for a rethink. It appears that the US government can’t even keep secret their plan to stop their secrets from getting leaked.
Your buddy calls you up and asks if you want to join him and 32 others to stand around in your underwear on the three fifteen to Blackheath. Says he read about it on Facebook. You tell him to go screw himself, right? Wrong. You ask him what colour boxers he’ll be wearing because you take Facebook very, very seriously.
Chatter on the street is that Prince William’s stag party is going down at the Fez in Cape Town. Nothing’s confirmed at this point, but the rationale for the speculation is rather convincing. Click through for more.
Here we have a video of a small creek in an obscure part of Queensland, Australia, transforming from a benign trickle into a hellish monster comprised chiefly of speed, water, mud, and cars from this office’s parking lot. The footage is intense, but the awesome Australian accents are pretty distracting.
I must say I was not aware how far they were taking this whole thing. Check this out: you can now enter a competition to have your very own Airwaving. If you have been sleeping for a couple months and don’t know what an ‘Airwaving’ is, then read below and check the video. I mean […]
This is from the internet, so I can’t promise that it’s real – but I hope it is. I really do. Apparently this guy got fired from a Domino’s pizza chain for walking in drunk or otherwise chemically affected and the results – well. Read the termination letter yourself, I beg you. It’s beautiful.
Meet The New Gender-Bender Fashion Icon – The new face of Marc Jacobs has Cindy Crawford’s bone structure and Kate Moss’ body—but Andrej Pejic is a 19-year-old Serbian boy. Damon Baker, a 19-year-old British photographer, went into a dark karaoke bar in Covent Garden last summer, where he saw a woman with high cheekbones, long […]
Soon after we published the story that property development tycoon, Rob Taylor, was suspected of having perished by suicide by leaping off Table Mountain, online conversations around the incident began to reveal a number of curious, if not unnerving details of the circumstances leading up to Taylor’s death.
Rob Taylor, the property tycoon from Howick (KZN) who donated his R2,03 million Audi R8 to two car guards at the base of Table Mountain in January of 2010, is suspected of committing suicide by leaping from the base of the top cable car station on Sunday evening.
A laboratory in Israel is spending its research grant on the very creepy task of harvesting the tears of sad women. According to Shani Gelstein, scientist and tear collector, men found pictures of women less sexually attractive just after smelling the tears of women.
The folks at the Super Top Secret advertising firm are taking any Ed Hardy or Affliction t-shirt you send them and donating the clothing to the homeless. We like to keep our bird/stone ratio pretty solid here at 2ov, so the possibility of lowering the global douchebag quotient and helping out the lower-income brackets appeals.
I know, I was surprised too. Some dudes in Canada decided to hurl a couple of bottles of flouroscein into the Goldstream River, turning the whole thing bright flouro green. Way to one-up the Old Testament, Canada. I thought you guys were supposed to be nice.
Paul Mason, once the most grossly obese man on the planet, wants to sue Britain’s National Health Service for “letting him grow”. At one stage Mason weighed in at very nearly 410 Kg, but after gastric-bypass surgery the virtually waif-like Mason now weighs 235 Kg.
This is a novel idea from our ruling party: Move the end of year party to the start of the year, stretch it out over a weekend and end the whole thing with a concentrated celebration bash at the Moses Mabhida stadium. Add class to the event by serving Jack Daniel’s honey-glazed boerewors and subsidising the liquor. Now who said governing shouldn’t be fun?
Skulls in lighthouses, unidentified bodies on Table Mountain, and mass food poisonings in Somerset West – it’s been a fairly strange three days in Cape Town.
A massive congratulations must go to the organisers of the 150th running of the Queen’s Plate horse race, who put on an event second to none. With the day delivering an wild array of excitement and smouldering beauty, there was barely a moment to catch one’s breath before Locnville, Zebra & Giraffe and Gizelle hit the stage for an evening concert to rival any international event. Photo gallery and celebs after the jump.
Triple Beam Lyrical Dream Notorious B.I.G. Investigation Is Back On – A task force is actively pursuing leads into the 1997 slaying of hip hop artist Christopher Wallace, better known as Biggie Smalls or Notorious B.I.G. The investigation into the 13-year-old unsolved case was “reinvigorated” months ago as a result of new information. On March […]
Having never met before, SA cricket captain, Graeme Smith and SA surf champ, Jordy Smith, finally met at Cafe Caprice this week. Apparently they were downing 2oceansvibe cocktails all night. Because that’s how they….? *Have you spotted any celebs around town? Send ’em through and you will be rewarded 😉
