The Marie Claire Loeries After Party

On Saturday, 22 September I attended the Marie Claire Loerie awards after party. To those of you who don’t know what the Loerie awards are, they are the awards to honour those people with creative minds behind the adverts we see on TV, print, hear on radio etc. They always take place in Cape Town, and that was the case with year’s ceremony as well. 

Well I didn’t attend the actual ceremony of the awards uhmmm….. coz I didn’t get the invite. But that was no stress though as it saved me from stressing about what to wear. 

So I don’t know who the winners were as I only attended the after party - which took place at Artscape Theatre it a marquee named Zip Zap. 

I thought they were gonna strip, the way some men were so looking forward to it hehehe I could see in their eyes lol

We arrived there on time, the after party was scheduled to start at 21:00 pm and we got there just past 21:00 when it was not full. People came in one-by-one, eventually it was full. 

I thought it was going to be one of those boring parties zase Cape Town but shem it proved me wrong. It was actually fun. Crazy White Boy brought the house down. Since I love their songs I enjoyed their set. It was off the hook and people loved it. 

I was laughing at some rhythm-less white people lol it is really true hey, that white people (well not all of them) can’t dance, it is actually funny. When the party started we were inside most of the time. When we went out we saw Zizo Beda shooting for Selimathunzi and Lorna Maseko shooting for Top Billing - that's when I realized: “oh well this party is quit something mos”. 

Zizo Beda interviewing Mandla N for Selimathunzi

There were few familiar faces around shem and I didn’t expect that. Yoh Mandla N of City Sesla was so much in high spirits going around looking to see if anyone recognizes him. 

As I was snapping Zizo while she was doing interviews, this Mandla N guy saw that I have a camera in my hand and walked in our direction to pass between me and my friend - I'm sure he knew we were going to recognize him and ask for a picture and we did. 

Lorna Maseko shooting for Top Billing

I asked to take a picture of him alone but he wanted to pose with me and my friend. I got a lil annoyed coz I don’t know this thing of these celebrities not wanting to pose alone. So we did pose with him and when I asked to take a picture of him alone he went looking for an interview with Zizo and he got it. 

Me and my friend :-)

When we thought about it with my friend we laughed coz we didn’t see this guy going to wherever he was going before we asked to take a picture of him *smh*. Shem it’s really true that these “celebs” do hunt for media attention sometimes or to see if people still recognize them. They always pretend not to like it ke when they see headlines about them all over Sunday tabloids. 

Nonku of Crazy White Boy

I am sure he said something about us in that interview because I saw him pointing at our direction while being interviewed by Zizo *pukes*. He must have said blah blah blah my groupies *pukes again* argh! 

Lorna Maseko

I also asked Lorna Maseko to take a picture of her alone. She wanted to pose with me, I mean really? Imagine me posing with every celeb and having to put up all those pics in an article. Wouldn’t the article seem like my facebook page? Cummon…. 

Katlego of Expresso in the middle

Anyway, we also spotted Katlego of Expresso the guy who was said to be having an affair with Lorna Maseko. He was there with some girl who seemed as if she's his girlfriend. I wanted to ask to take a picture of him but that girl kept on looking at us as if we wanted to shela the guy so I decided not to.

They were all lovey dovey on the couch. I didn’t see Katlego together with Lorna Maseko as she was outside shooting and Katlego inside with the girl. 

Kim Cloete aka Bianca on Isidingo

I also spotted Vathiswa of Montana - she was there with some guy who I would like to think he is not her man but a friend, hayi nie. 

I also saw Bianca of Isidingo with her hubby looking good. Shem I like that couple - they’re gorgeous, hope they stay together forever. They are cute. 

My Top Billing Dream Top 10 finalist

The guy who was on My Top Billing Dream top 10 but got eliminated and offered to work behind-the-scenes of the show was there shem carrying Lorna Maseko’s bag and jacket, uhmmm… so that is the behind the scenes work that he does? 

Roxanne Kalie, Fatima Arendse and Schelaine Bennett

I didn’t see him doing anything besides following the camera guy and carrying Lorna Maseko’s stuff, shem yazi. Hope there is some real behind-the-scenes work that he does besides that. 

These two ladies were drunk drunk drunk sheim...

Food was flowing, the bad thing about it when I left home I filled myself with food as I didn’t wanna be hungry at the party as sometimes there's no food at these parties or just some food I don’t eat. But we ate to a point were I couldn’t force myself to eat more. 

I am sure everyone didn’t complain about food lol. It was a well organized party shem I loved it! People enjoyed themselves. The dance floor was packed. I left when the party was still off the hinges.

Well thank you Marie Claire for inviting TVSA we are hoping for more invites hehehe… ;-)

So, did Nandos get anything? I know you don't know the winners, but probably Nandos stood out.
