The Loerie Awards 2005
Posted on 17. Oct, 2005 by Cassandra in Advertising
This is really frustrating….
Cherryflava actually had a man on the ground at this year’s Loerie awards (the South African ad industry’s Oscar come Cannes-type backslapping-you-so-clever award ceremony)…but we’ve just found out that the chopper is still lying in a Durban ICU, after falling prey to an overdose of cocaine and Jack Daniel’s at last night’s afterparty. Drug resistant….Good help is hard to find these days.
Well…we clearly haven’t managed to bring you our own independant coverage of the glittering event, but all of the thousands of winners are listed under the numerous catagories over at Biz-community. More over at the official Loerie site here.
Well done creative people…we’re all very impressed with your ability to hold your liquor. We’re already one man down because of you lot getting excited about your ‘work’.
BTW….if someone at Cell C is reading Cherryflava this morning….please get your people to contact our advertising people, we’d love to have this banner ad on the site along with free cellphone contracts for all of our readers. Cweet.

Have you seen “Gums and Noses?” SA flick about cocaine in the ad industry – with a scene at the Loeries re the same.
Pretty funny / sad.

Haven’t seen it…but thanks for the reminder. Will have to track it down and send copies to the creative directors we know….and try and get something into the brain (other than Columbia’s finest) of the guy that was finally discharged from hospital today.
