The 2016 Kalofae/Fail Moments of the Year
As the end of 2016 draws near we take a moment to reflect on some of the things that made us shake our head & say 'Kalofae' or write them off as a big fat FAIL!
In no particular order:
Koi Boyz being mistaken for Sole Mio at the Vodafone NZ Music Awards by the Vodafone NZ Music Awards Social Media person .... because all brown boys look the same??!
Womans Day making up a story about Maria Tutaia & Israel Folau's engagement #GutterJournalism - gotta love Maria calling them out on it tho!
'The Whitest story ever told' - Jennifer Lawrence thinking it's hilarious to scratch her as$ on sacred rocks in Hawai'i White privilege much!
Jarryd Hayne missed out on the Fiji Sevens team (kalofae) and while they were winning Gold in Rio he was making headlines for another reason. We think showing porn to a High School while presenting an online safety talk is the winner. Are you orrrrrite Jarryd?
In another case of 'All Brown Guys look the Same' - Adidas mixed up Julian Savea and Malakai Fekitoa. They used footage of Malakai in a Julian Savea highlights video for an upcoming game that Malakai was not playing in due to suspension! Ummmm?!!
The Maui Costume - we're glad Disney had the good sense to pull it.
