Georgia May Jagger for Chanel Chanel “Cruise” Collection Hits The Streets Of St. Tropez – There was no better location for Karl Lagerfeld to unveil his Chanel Cruise collection for 2010/11 than the world famous fishing village of St. Tropez (just down the drag from where I am).

Apparently, any film starring Russell Crowe and directed by Ridley Scott can’t go wrong. Having collaborated on Gladiator, A Good Year, American Gangster and Body of Lies, it’s safe to say they’ve got a winning formula. The film rides on the back of almost a century of Robin Hoods ranging from Robin Hood (1912) to […]

It was one thing dealing with the prawn invasion taking over Cape Town and the world, as it is usually carried out with a humorous twist. But the notion of actual monks joining in on the action, and presenting their cause as some kind of holy war, does raise some major concerns. We received the […]
With Friday’s EuroMillions Lottery jackpot sitting at roughly R1 Billion, I couldn’t think of a better time to present this recent find to you. Those of you who caught last week’s 2oceansvibe Radio Show (podcast here) would have heard the clip we gave you, shortly before our Stormers discussion with Bob Skinstad. The clip was […]
So the Stormers are playing the Blue Bulls this weekend at Newlands. It’s all rather exciting and I have no doubt that our boys will take the crown – it’s just a matter of you putting off the positive energy they require to do it! So about a week ago this photograph arrives in my […]

Growing up as a sex icon was never easy and I was trained by my various minders and advisors, to deal with things like this. One of the best tactics is just to remain silent, which normally results in rumours and speculation fading away. This is something I have been trying to do with these […]

Pictures on Twitter = “Twitures.” Good one.. Here is a screenshot if you go to the 2oceansvibe Twiture […]
Look, I’m certainly not distraught at being “stuck” in Provence for the next month, but I am somewhat “irked” that I am missing out on the winter specials going on at my primary residence, the Cape Royale hotel! In particular, at1800 Restaurant and Equinox spa! So I thought I better pop them up here for […]

It was one thing MWEB launching SA’s first uncapped ADSL broadband access, which also seemed to make it through the “SEACOM” cable disaster of last week (whilst my friends using competing suppliers suffered – fact), but now they have taken things to the next level, introducing SA’s first Video On Demand (VOD) access. Huh? What […]

Werner Hertzog , the critically acclaimed German film director, who recently gave us Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (featuring my good friend Nic Cage), has a very distinct German accent, tone and reading style.
