I don’t write an article for one week and everything goes to pot. From earthquakes to tsunamis to Roman Polanski being nabbed for a crime he committed 30-odd years ago. The sports gods were obviously seriously miffed about no Sports Roundup last Thursday and this week the entire world has paid the price. But nobody […]
It’s going to be difficult for me to write this article without audio. Because I want to shout it. I want to scream it. It’s off the charts. It’s off the hook. And dare I say it, OFF THE CHAIN! Cape Town has NEVER seen anything like this before! Stop it It was […]
Pushing it? A Teazers billboard advertisement which states that the strip club’s dancers “don’t need any gender tests”, has nothing whatsoever to do with Caster Semenya, according to Teazers owner Lolly Jackson. He said the campaign was designed to make it clear that Teazers employees are “100% woman”. [news24] Former Prosecutor: I Lied In […]
Austin Powers and Dr. Evil are the same person, Mike Myers. No, not the psychotic serial killer from Halloween that just won’t die, the guy from Wayne’s World… Wayne. (GET ON WITH IT!)

I mentioned this the other day but I didn’t have the footage. Now I do have the footage and I want to bring it to you in a full-on POST, rather than a Good Morning Headline. Because I dig Conan O’Brien! For those of you NOT in the loop, Conan O’Brien is a […]
It is interesting to note that the TBG’s (Tall Blonde Guy’s) fame has reached such biblical proportions that we are now at a point where a pic of him on the phone in the street is just as newsworthy as personal interaction photographs/reports with civilians. Dear Seth, Dude…. The Vibe is following me. I […]

The G20 was carrying on over the past week or so and you might remember we mentioned CNN’s Christiane Amanpour when she destroyed one Robert Gabriel Mugabe in his first interview with the Western World in the last five years. South African president, Jacob “Jay-Z” Zuma got his turn on CNN with the same lady. […]
“But she told me she was 16!!” Roman Polanski’s arrest in Switzerland has blindsided the Los Angeles court. Gerald Posner reports on the director’s 32-year legal odyssey—and whether the district attorney will be forced to drop the case. For those of you not following this – get into it.

These guys who call themselves Vuva and the Zelas have made a song called “Funny Yellow Trumpet” which documents a group of white guys taking a taxi to a local football game, ultimately falling in love with soccer and the vuvuzela. It’s pretty damn funny – check it out (wait for play box […]
It is tradition here at 2oceansvibe to “call it” when it feels right for us (for you). I remember back in 2007, we called it on September 17. Well it looks like it’s 11 days later this year. Don’t know why – probably a combination of El Nino, global warming and Michael Jackson’s death. Quietly […]
I’m not 100% sure if this is for public consumption, but I’m gonna roll with it anyway. I mean really, MY inbox is YOUR inbox right? You remember the other day I swung by the ELLE Magazine cover shoot with District 9 star, Vanessa Haywood? You may have even caught the video of me and […]

Brigitte BardotBorn : 28 September 1934 Brigitte Bardot turns 75 today. She starred in 48 films, recorded 80 songs and established herself as an animal rights activist. She also became somewhat outspoken in her criticism of immigration, race-mixing, some homosexuality and Islam. As a result, she has been convicted five times for “inciting racial […]
From bowling to boning! It looks like there are more things to think about before a big game, besides fielding practice and the bowling machine. Gary Kirsten believes a good session before heading on to the sports field is all India’s cricketers need to bring home the trophies. Judging by the action the boys get, […]
I’ve noticed a HELLUVA lot of adverts for the new Range Rover online, as well as offline. I just want to say right now that I STRONGLY urge you NOT to buy one. I say this to you as your friend, brand meister and, as an “opinion leader” I feel it’s my duty. Whether it’s […]
Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe says many white farm owners occupied the land illegally and “historically have a debt.” Enjoy this CNN interview and keep an eye on anchor, Christiane Amanpour, as she literally shakes with anger. I don’t know why people get so upset about Robert Mugabe. It’s a chemical imbalance in his brain. […]

Well the gloves are well and truly off. Not to be outdone by Mail & Guardian’s use of the uncensored word “fuck” in a recent article (this, not long after News24, without any censoring whatsoever, published the words “cocksucker,” “fuck,” and “cunt” in the same article (hey, I’m just quoting here)), Media24 have stepped things […]
Remember how our parentals tried to force-feed us as children… “Here comes the aeroplane”, “If you eat the crust you’ll get a deep voice” and “Don’t make me come down there!”. Okay, maybe the last one was only for special occasions, but that’s what watching The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 is like, except […]

I know it’s incredibly late and for a man of my stature incredibly emboerrissing to say this, but I’ve only just started getting into The Sopranos. I left it too long, I know – especially for a series which has been hailed as one of the greatest series the world has ever seen. […]
My boy Travis gave me the heads up on this one as we downed another glass of De Grendel in Bakoven the other night. It’s too damn funny and I must caution those of you with weak bladders to perhaps relieve yourselves before pressing play. Will Ferrel is in it. That’s all I’m saying. […]
