Matt Damon - Local Is Lekker!

Matt Damon seems to have taken a shine to SA and added our brightly coloured flag to the collection on his jacket. That kind of localism is lekker, but do you know what's even better? Matt Damon's Afrikaans accent, that's what!



Matt Damon plays local rugby hero, Francois Pienaar along side Morgan Freeman (who is playing Nelson Mandela) in Clint Eastwood's latest film offering called, Invictus (everyone who's anyone is simply raving about it - and did you like how many celebs I strung into one sentence. I'm good like that). The movie tells the story of Nelson Mandela's life and how the Springboks winning the 1995 Rugby World Cup 'helped heal a nation'.


I may watch rugby for all the 'wrong' reasons;) but even I was impressed by the trailer on Youtube. When you check it out you'll be blown away by Freeman's portrayal of Mandela, and you'll get to hear Damon's Afrikaans accent. You can then decide if it's believable or not...

Is There a Dr in the House!?

Goodness gracious me, I think I need medical attention - I'm burning up over here! Although now that I think about it, it could be because I'm surrounded by some of the best looking people on the set of Private Practice!

That's right folks you read that correctly, I'm still swanning around and living it up in London, while the fabulous Tammy-Anne from All Access does all the hard work. While she was busy interviewing the sensational Tim Daly on the set of Private Practice, I was getting trigger-happy and shutter-snappy. And now you get to reap the rewards of my efforts.

I present to you the gorgeous, Tim Daly...

Jealous Down!

OMG what a week! Guess who's been jet-setting with the wonderful Tammy-Anne from All Access, yours truly of course! (I think she may have even looked at me once) but it was hard to tell, because I was too busy drooling over the hardbodied hunks that she was interviewing.

Ladies brace yourselves! I could tell you that Benni McCarthy pitched up looking ultra suave sporting his 'casual' look just right... Or that it was actually Taye Diggs who knew his Armani from his McQueen, I could tell you that... But I think I'll just show you instead.

Eat your heart's out...

The Tribe Has Spoken

Anyone who has been reading my blog lately will know that I simply can't wait for the news to break on who will be setting sail for the deserted island in the middle of the India Ocean, to be part of the new Celebrity Survivor SA!

Alas, i have yet to 'overhear' a full list of potential contestants from the people i know, who are in the know... But I do know that Nico Panagio will definitely be on the show!

This multi-talented actor, TV presenter, *hotty-hotster* won't be joining the ranks of the celebrities who will have to forgo their high-flying lifestyles while they're on the island. Instead we'll be guaranteed to see him until the very end as he will be hosting the show! (Have i mentioned that i simply can't wait:)

Nico says being given the chance to be part of one of the most popular reality shows in the world is a dream come true. “I love Survivor, and even entered as a competitor in the past. I’ll never be able to test my Survivor skills, but the upside is that my presence in the show is guaranteed all the way to the end! Jokes aside, this is amazing and I’m ready for the adventure of a lifetime.”

I'm sure my faithful followers would have figured out that the previous seasons host, Mark Bayly is currently wrapped up in one of my other favourite shows, All Access hence there needing to be a new presenter. I think Nico Panagio with his rugged good looks is going to fill those shoes, just fine.

Splitsville

Local celebs Danny K and Lee-Ann Liebenberg have split up! SA's so-called 'golden couple' have called off their engagement and ended their six year relationship. The two are sticking to their story that they will always love and respect each other but marriage just wasn't for them... Well that was the general gist of the joint statement that was issued by J23 Management for Danny K and Head Models for Lee-Ann Liebenberg.

The full statement was actually as follows:

“Danny and Lee-Ann have sadly ended their engagement.

Unfortunately they have hardly spent any time together since their engagement last year, due to their individual work commitments locally and abroad and the constant traveling, understandably, put a lot of strain on the relationship.

Danny and Lee-Ann will always have love and respect for each other and wish each other only the best."

So there you have it folks despite having won a number of awards as the most popular celeb couple all that glitter's isn't always gold, and Danny's back on the market!
