Come one, come all to the hive of salacious gossip and industry buzz that is The Drum’s Vibrator. Every two weeks, resident gossip Claire Snare shares the news from the media and marketing industry that pesky press teams are dying to keep quiet...

The Drum’s gossip guru Claire Snare offers her fortnightly update with some incriminating images involving nail polish and the bosses at Rainey Kelly Campbell Roalfe/Y&R, some media beefcake show us what they are capable of, and a we see what creative look like on their downtime together.

Nailed

Rainey Kelly Campbell Roalfe/Y&R co-founder Mark Roalfe and executive creative director Mick Mahoney recently pushed aside their regular work duties to get busy painting their nails pink in honour of RKCR/ Y&R’s #2fingers2breastcancer campaign for Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

Phwoar!

The return of Fittest in Media began at Zenith’s offices last week. Run by Dennis Publishing title Men's Fitness, the challenge looks to identify the hottest, sweatiest, best built bloke working in a media agency. I don’t understand why they don’t sell tickets – guys in shorts and T-shirts doing as many push ups, sit ups and burpees as they can in a minute! To quote a workman I passed earlier in the street “Phwoar!!!!!” Details and dates for each event are on The Drum website, alongside a league table of those taking part. Marc Whittle holds the top score following the first event.

Meanwhile here's footage from OMD's attempt.

Zzzzzzzzzz

Finally, I’m certain that Red Brick Road creatives Marcus Smith and Tom Hopkins will be pleased to see this picture of themselves getting some shut eye on the way to a shoot last month. Adorable.
