Ha, I've just realised ... the title sounds as if Phat will be getting married to two guys at the same time. No-no.
He's going to be
overseeing the wedding of two strangers who've never met.
Over the past couple of weeks
Phat Joe's been organising a wedding on his breakfast show on Heart FM via an on-air competition.
He put out a call for guys who wanted to find their soulmate and a winner was chosen. The winner then had to choose who he wants to marry by getting to know five different guys over two weeks.
Everyone's been anonymous. The bachelor whose done the choosing goes by the verrry unslurpy name of Lekker Larry.
The five guys he chose from also used pseudonyms as they got to know him: Flirty Frank (believe it), Hastige Hendrik (yup), Chilled Chad, Juicy James and Sweet Steve.
Last week the competition aspect of it all came to an end when Lekker Larry chose Hastige Hendrik to be his
bride ...
groom ... uh?
This Saturday (26 March) the two will meet in the flesh for the first time - moments before they get married. They'll be led up the aisle blindfolded and just before they say "I do" they'll rip their blinders off and see each other.
The wedding ceremony's going down on a yacht at the V&A Waterfront and TVSA's
Cheesa will be in the action to bring us the dirrrt on what happens.
Once they've tied the knot they're going off on a yacht-honeymoon and will either return in lurve or they'll charge off to divorce laywers - or one of them won't return if the other turns out to be a psycho-whackjob.
Even though they've been anonymous they've revealed snippets about themselves:
| Lekker Larry |
 |
35-years old.
He's an entertainer and prop and set designer.
He describes himself as a hopeless romantic .
He likes to work hard and can be obsessive when it comes to having a clean house.
Looks like he could be Heinz Winkler.

| Hastige Hendrik |
 |
29-years old
He works in marketing.
He describes himself as an extrovert who's sensitive and thoughtful but can also be quite judgemental.
He defines loves as "serious business".
Most likely to be the whackjob of the two. That mask, brrrr.
