watched the A-team. Not sure what it was about.

03 Sep 2010, Posted by Cape Town Girl in CTG, Celebrity, movies, 1 Comments


Watched the A-team last night. Here’s what I know for sure:

1. That black dude with PITY and FOOL tattooed on his knuckles was quite cool, but a bit emo. I don’t like my cool big black dudes to be emo. Did anyone else find him emo? Like that vibe where he gets freed and then he trims his hair and there’s this deep moment where we see he hasn’t given himself a mohawk again? He’s just given himself a normal trim? Like, tragedy! I’m not sure that scene actually happened since I did drift in and out of sleep. But that was the vibe.. and it was emo..

2. Sharlto Copley was really funny. Especially when he sang ‘You spin me right round baby right round’ while clinging to the helicopter blades. Also loved all his crazy faces. He was a great crazy guy. You just look at him and you laugh. And then when he’s not on screen you think, what is going on in this movie? Who are these people? Why do they keep saying something about a plan coming together?

3. Bradley Cooper is HOT. More please.

Guys that movie was really confusing. I know it was meant to touch me somewhere deep, to evoke some kind of nostalgia, or something, but I also realised while watching it that even though I THOUGHT I’d watched A-team when I was younger, I clearly hadn’t because I didn’t know who anyone was or what was going on.

Anybody else seen A-team? Anyone else have that kind of revelation? Anybody else feel confused? Going to have to watch Inception just to feel a little less confused.

Please enjoy these deleted scenes from Zoolander that feature Alexander Skarsgaard (CTG’s number 1, and only, perpetual celebrity crushmight be because we have the same name). Hi-LArious! Thanks to swartperd for sharing this!

Guys, we all remember this wonderful video where SA comedian Don Packett pretends to be the Head Parlotone and swings around his chicken leg. Well you can catch him and Jon Vlismas – who is also hilarious – at the Breadline Africa comedy show at the Grand Daddy Hotel on 2 September 2010. It’s being hosted by ridiculously good-looking Richard Hardiman, whom you listen to every morning on 2oceansvibe radio, no doubt.

(Hey does ANYONE listen to ‘old radio’ anymore? Like over the airwaves’? Gosh, that’s right up there with ‘dialup modems’, yes? Hey remember when you actually had to ‘fiddle with a knob’ so you could ‘get a signal’? Mindblowing!)

Anyway Breadline for Africa is a charity that is close to CTG’s heart, and hilarity aside, the funds raised from this will go to sending 120 underprivileged kids to the Breadline For Africa Annual Seaside Party. This gets held every year and they take kids who have never seen the sea, to go sea the sea. Which is a very meaningful initiative. Please just imagine never having seen the sea?

Llandudno beach right here right now

The sea. You've never seen it.

Camps Bay right now

And this. You've never seen this either.

Ja, I thought so. Get yourself a ticket for R250 by clicking here. See you there! xx

LA, PD and CTG

Went to the launch of 2oceansvibe radio on Wednesday night – you’ve never seen the New Cape Quarter so packed. It was an awesome evening – Jack Parow played live! Which rocked! Lots of good wine and pretty people. But the best part is the fact that we don’t have to listen to mass market radio anymore! Thank DOG. Because I’m NOT mass market. I’m CTG.

Click here to check out the pics from the launch.

Click here to stream 2oceansvibe radio live. You can actually stream it on your phone! It totally works real time – perfectly! Ja, radio really is obsolete isn’t it… miss u AM / FM. Kinda. Not. Have thoroughly enjoyed the first 2 days of 2OV radio - Richard Hardiman and Seth are doing a great job. Don’t you think they’re really funny to listen to? Especially since they’re talking about things that are actually relevant to CTG’s interests – completely unlike ‘normal radio’. Plus I find myself actually liking ALL the music. And even the ads! Hehe. Tune in and enjoy.

Levi’s Loves Local

16 Jul 2010, Posted by Cape Town Girl in Celebrity, Design, advertising, fashion, field guides, food, non-tourist attractions, south africa, 0 Comments


CTG is quite enjoying this l’il summin summin for Levi’s® SA on facebook. They interviewed 5 local urban culture icons (Inge from Lark, Samora from 5th Floor, MTV’s Bianca, Jozi blogger True Jones and Pretoria photographer Liam Lynch) and created and designed maps of all their favourite hotspots in Jozi and Cape Town. You can print the maps off the facebook page and hit their unique versions of ‘town’. Is quite cool particularly for those who were here for World Cup and wanting something a little less touristy. Click here to check out all the maps – there are also video interviews and photos of the mentioned hotspots. What do you think? Cool? Yes? No? They’re also releasing clues on the facebook page that lead you to certain marked out venues where you can pick up free limited edition gear (Found that out on a Vide e Caffe cup).

Become a Red Carpet Style Reporter

14 Jul 2010, Posted by Cape Town Girl in Celebrity, advertising, competitions, fashion, girl stuff, south africa, 0 Comments


Girls, if CTG wasn’t ‘already famous’ she would so enter this! Softlips is doing a search for a Red Carpet Style Reporter – pretty cool! The whole thing’s being run off facebook, so if you know any pretty young things over the age of 17 you should totally tell them to search for Softlips South Africa to find out how to enter. The prize: A column in Seventeen Magazine, a wardrobe by YDE and tickets to the hottest parties in town. You’ll also get followed around by your own camera crew. Oh, AND an iPhone – basically the most important part!

Check out the pics of the Stylistas in the running to see who’s already entered. Here are some of the entries so far. Dang. SA’s got some very pretty girls! Good luck ladies. I sure would LOVE that YDE wardrobe…. Click here to enter.

Pretty!

Super hot!

Very pretty!
