Schoenaerts and his crew put the large-scale work (pictured) together during Studio's Brussel's Music for Life festival in Antwerp ́s Groenplaats, a week-long radio show to raise funds for African children whose parents have died of AIDS. There were 72 bidders, and proceeds go to Music for Life.

Not content with being a one- hit wonder, Flemish singer Tom Waes, who tortured us with his irritatingly catchy summer hit Dos cervezas (Two beers), is back with the appropriately entitled new number: Eén is geen (One is Nothing). In his latest track, Waes extols the virtues of having at least two of everything, citing golfer Tiger Woods lack of contentment with one woman and even the joys of orgies. He cheekily tells us too how he had broken his promise never more to sing "but I could not control myself ".

The Belgian Union of Film Critics have awarded their Grand Prize for best film of the year to American director Tom Ford's A Single Man. The story of a 1960s university professor (Colin Firth) who cannot publicly mourn the death of his male partner is the directorial debut of fashion designer Ford. The film was chosen "for the quality of its humanist and stylistic levels," said the union in a statement. Last month, the union awarded Mr Nobody by Jaco Van Dormael the award for the best Belgian film of the year.

N-VA nationalist party leader Bart De Wever is laying waste to the competition on De allerslimste mens ter wereld (The Very Smartest Person in the World), an all-star edition of TV één's incredibly popular Slimste mens ter wereld. Back for his third evening in the tough but fun quiz show as Flanders Today went to press, De Wever has withstood both local and international criticism for taking part in the show during a national political crisis centred on the inability of French and Dutch speakers to form a government for more than six months. "I challenge you to find anyone who can claim that my participation has set back one appointment for even one minute," reacted De Wever, whose party shot to the forefront of Flemish politics after he came in second in the Slimste mens season that ended in 2009.
