Fans forgive Joost: News24: Entertainment: CelebNews. Joost van der Westhuizen has been forgiven - at least by the supporters who attended the launch of his book in Pretoria.

Hoekom word net Joost sleg gemaak? Waar is die vrou wat hom met die video gevang het? Ja hy moes seker nie, maar sy het hom verly. Sy is meer skuldig.

Does that mean "No i did not sleep with her (and take drugs)" or "Yes I did sleep with her; but no we did not have intercourse! (i don't care what you think, who do you think you are?)...so there!"

From his rugby heroics to his marriage to the glamorous Amor Vittone to the recent sex-tape allegations, ...Joost has been constantly in the news. This book follows the careers of Joost the rugby player and Joost the man. A fascinating narrative of a rugby prodigy and controversial celebrity, it unearths the truth behind the allegations and counter-allegations that surround his life.

Joost: The Man in the Mirror by David Gemmell

Arguably the best scrumhalf to have played rugby union, Joost van der Westhuizen has created as much media excitement off the field as he did on it. From his rugby heroics to the controversies surrounding his personal life, Joost has been constantly in the news. The most dev...astating piece of bad press came in the form of a sex video that allegedly features Joost, a blonde woman who is not his wife, and a mysterious white powder…

In this book, Joost talks about his dreams and ambitions as a young boy, tracks his rugby highlights, including his three World Cups, and dissects the methods of the coaches who helped shape his career. He also discusses, in depth, the Kamp Staaldraad scandal, his long and successful career with the Blue Bulls and his job as a sports commentator with SuperSport.

On a more personal level, the book looks at his celebrity marriage to Amor Vittone, his role as father, and his attempts to find meaning in life after rugby.

Finally, Joost puts to rest the rumours that have swirled around him. For the first time, the Man in the Mirror tells the truth, and nothing but the truth. It will blow your socks off.

David Gemmell is a freelance writer who has written for, among others, the Star, Business Day, the Financial Mail and Anytime magazine. He currently has a column in The Weekender featuring interviews with sportspeople.
