Heinz recently did his music video for the new song, 'You and I'

Here it is courtesy of Heinz himself, posted on Youtube.
Nicely done Heinz and Charlize!  This is on our list of favorite songs.

Kumar visit to SA

Vincent Ebrahim is in South Africa.  A lot of people did not know who this man was, but you should know if we tell you he is the father in the hit BBC show, The Kumars at no 42.

Interestingly enough, this famous man is actually a South African born actor that went over the to the UK in 1976 already.  He visits South Africa often and still know a little bit of Afrikaans!

His sister is also famous in SA and plays the role of Charmaine in 7de Laan on SABC 2.  Strange how we seem to have so much South African talent abroad that we never know of.

Huisgenoot Musiekfees-bootvaart

Huisgenoot is hosting another amazing event - these guys just keep on coming up with very creative (and lucrative) ideas around entertainment in the Afrikaans music industry.  


The brand is widely known for its 'Skouspel' and 'Skouspel Plus' concerts, and now they bring us the 'Musiekfees-bootvaart' 


This unique event is on-board the MCS Symphonia and tickets sold last year already.  

Some of the famous South African names to join in the festivities are Nicholis Louw and Bobby van Jaarsveld (two of our favorites), as well as Ray Dylan, Jennifer Zamudio, Karlien Husselman, Charlize Bergh, Christiaan Botha, Quentin Prinsloo, MarNet, Charne Grabie, Willem Botha, Albert de Wet, Karen Ferreira, Jaycee Crause, Jay and Viljoen Retief.

Drakensberg Boys Choir Joins SHOUT

Getroud met Rugby Premiere

The exclusive premier for the movie was held tonight in all its glory!  Izak Davel plays a lead role and we also loved Heinz Winckler in this one.  
Heinz also attended the premiere earlier tonight. 

Story Sinopsis

Reghart Venter (Izak Dave) is a mechanic from the wring sides of the tracks. He was a promising rugby player but lost his way. After several charges of fighting and assault he gets a final warning – pull yourself together or go to jail.

Regharts sentence is to do community service – practicing rugby with a fallen hero of the Stryders Rugby team, Fafa Beltrame (Altus Theart). “Fast Fafa” was once the fastest wing in the country en a hit among the ladies. Fafa lost his way after he and his wife Kiki (Hannah Grobler) seperated after losing their daughter. Fafa seeks his refuge in drink and in the process alienates everyone who ever cared for him.

When Reghart, unwillingly, is dragged to Potties Place (the local Stryder Rugby Team bar) by his friends he meets Lize (San-Marie Nel). For the first time in his life there is something he cannot fight against. His heart.

Through the metaphor of rugby the two broken men inadvertently helps one another to find their way again.

Danny K buyers remorse?

DSTV launched their Jumbo remote last year and Danny recently admitted to purchasing one.  He does not sound to sure that it was a good purchase, but perhaps consumers should check it out.  You never know if maybe it was made 'just for you'!  


The DStv Jumbo Universal Remote has been constructed by MultiChoice since the pay TV platform says certain subscribers asked for an easier-to-operate remote. The buttons on the DStv Jumbo Universal Remote can perform all the functions on a DStv PVR decoder, doesn't need to be pointed towards the DStv decoder to work, and is compatible with all DStv decoder models.

Jacques on ROER!

Our favorite Jacques was interviewed by Tammy for the TV show ROER showing on Kyknet.  We heard about all the practice runs, making the perfect curry and now we get to see it on our screens.

Don't miss the show!

Breakfast Xpress back to normal

From tomorrow morning the breakfast xpress will be back to the normal broadcast from Sandton SA.  The crew seemed to have really enjoyed their time in LA and have seen things that a lot of 'normal' people would just dream of.
