After the Cape Town premiere of The A-Team movie last Tuesday (10 August) we were iffy about the fact that Quinton "Rampage" Jackson was nowhere to be seen. As you know from the goss below, he was supposed to be there but wasn't.
We're pleased to report that he was at the Jozi premiere two nights later, on Thursday eve (12 August) - at Nu Metro in Monte Casino. Wearin': a variation on his BA Baracus "Do".
Snaparazzo Snazzy K hit the arrivals carpet for us and cam-caught him as he chatted to guests, alongside Sharlto "Mad" Copley. The pair walked the carpet, then spoke about their roles before everyone watched the screening.
Spotted in the action too: Gerry Rantseli-Elsdon, with her rhyming hubbie Kerry ...

It's been a whopping 27-years since The A-Team TV series was first created and now it's back. As the reinvented movie. The flik debut'd internationally in June and arrived in South Africa on Tuesday (10 August), along with one of the stars Sharlto Copley.
The South African actor, best known as Wikus van der Merwe in District 9, plays Howling Mad Murdock and was centre of attention at the film's first premiere at Nu Metro, Canal Walk in da Mudda City.
Quinton "Rampage" Jackson - who plays BA "pity the fool" Baracus - was supposed to be in the action too but was apparently too terrified to fly from Jozi. Word is he'll be at the second premiere, which goes down in Jozi tonight (12 August).
Celebs we flashed on the arrivals carpet included Natalie Becker (who Sharlto clung to - see pic); and Colin Moss with his long-time GF Tamarin Kaplan, who's also his partner in his production company Gathered Moss Productions.

Signature e.tv personalities have just wrapped a photo-shoot, styling-it in angel wings for the channel's upcoming fundraising drive to fight cancer.

This year the sweat-up goes down at Jozi Zoo on Sunday, 29 August. All entries will be used to gather funds to upgrade the Oncology Clinic at the Johannesburg General Hospital.

DJ, writer and producer Kgomotso Matsunyane will be back on the box on Saturday (7 August) for a new season of her talker Late Night With Kgomotso (on SABC2).
We've been snooping for goss on who'll she be featuring and scooped that the season opens with actor Seputla Sebogodi, TV presenter Carol Manana, actress Lillian Dube and muso Karen Zoid.
Other guests in the season include actor Jamie Bartlett, author Zukiswa Wanner, singer Thandiswa Mazwai and Big Brother All Stars host I.K.

It's almost two weeks since the Big Brother All Stars moved into the show and unfortunately for us, not one of them has been whacked yet.
Last Sunday, the eviction show saved both Tatiana and K1, who moved back with added pow'er. Up for eviction this week: Uti, Sammi (of course) and Hannington, after Head of House Tatiana replaced herself with him. As happened last season, the housemates voted for HOH, knowing she'd save herself - a situation too mind-bogglin' to begin to go into.
As for what's what this week: the second house (the barn) will come into play and someone will - hopefully - be sent home for Good.
Here's a gallery fishbowl pics from the first two weeks, taken from the cams within the side windows that peer into the house:

Last we heard Kyle White was Mr 20Something on e.tv's pop magazine show, which wrapped last year.
Turns out he's still 20-something (23 to be exact) and about to make his debut on E! Entertainment - Latin America. The channel is mostly in Spanish and airs in South and North America.
He's co-costing an E! Special (in English) called Fifa World Cup South Africa 2010, alongside blondeshell Heidi Balvanera - a signature host on E! - LA.
The 45-minute special features them getting into the spirit of the Cup and country in Jozi and Cape Town - they hang out at fan parks to chat to revellers and get into adventures on offer in Mzansi. Things they brave include shark cage diving, lion cuddling, motor racing and quad biking.
The special debuts on E! in August.

Hang onto your nerves A-listers. 3-months of screaming, clinging to each other, fake kiss-kisses, boozin' and fighting has begun.
On Sunday night (18 June) 14 has-been housemates moved into the Big Brother house - under the assumption that they're "All Stars" 'cos they lost the game the first time round.
Snaparazzi was in the heatt of it all to snap you their arrivals, while Sean Paul (and his chubby-chops DJ brutha Jigzagula) entertained the live audience in between.
As you'll see, SP found himself a Tatiana lookalike at the after-party (at ZOUK in Sandton, Jozi) and wouldn't leave her side ...
