MC Hammer in Cape Town: Can’t touch this!

Roy Barford

Roy Barford has lived in more than 10 cities and towns around the world, but decided to settle in Cape Town. He loves the fact that he can enjoy both urban and natural adventures every day, surrounded by creativity and tranquility.

He is a sports fanatic who can often be found at Newlands rugby and cricket stadiums, while he also enjoys outdoor adventure activities and exploring Cape Town's vast nightlife options.

Roy has written for publications such as the Sunday Tribune, Cape Argus and the Star, and has also blogged for websites such as Southafrica.net, Tablemountain.net.

MC Hammer hosted the second awards ceremony of the 34th annual Loerie Awards in Cape Town. In the video alongside, MC Hammer enters the 34th annual Loerie Awards and he busts out his 1990 hit song Can't Touch This.

MC Hammer says he came to Cape Town a year ago for the first time.

"I love the beauty of the city and I've found the people to be quite friendly. There's a lot of history here and I love history so I enjoy Cape Town and I look forward to returning again."

He did of course feature in the Castle Light television commercial, in which a barman is unable to hold on to a freezing bottle of beer and fumbles it several times before dropping it, only for MC Hammer to catch it in time.
