Check out the photo of the new cover of Vogue HERE (or check out the iframe of it after the break)
Apparently there are some folks angry about that pic of LeBron with his teeth bared holding onto Gisele because they claim it’s a nod to king kong.
Gimmie a fucking break.
I’m calling bullshit right now. I am POSITIVE someone in the Vogue camp is inventing this story as they have already sent notices to everyone that they will take legal action if you post a picture of the cover. Seems odd that they took that tack. Sounds like a move to drive traffic to their site from people like me. I guess that part worked.
I was going to post this yesterday since it is on Sunday; but the aforementioned server issues preempted that desire. However, I hope I can still cash in on the mountain of webhits posting anything on David Beckham provides. (seriously people, he competes with the nip slips of the ‘it’ girls in terms of hits, quite exquisite for the advertisers really. If I was a real asshole I’d put ‘nude’ in the title of the post and retire for this year)
David Beckham was in NYC for a charity event and had the honor of presenting the legendary Pele with a lifetime achievement award. He had this to say to Reuters:
“For me to be here to present this to the greatest sportsmen of all time, I feel particularly honored,” the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder told reporters. “This absolutely is a highlight moment for me.”
The black-tie event, a $1,250-a-plate fundraiser at Gotham Hall, was a benefit for Harlem Youth Soccer.
Pele, 67, widely regarded as the greatest footballer ever, blazed a trail for soccer in North American soccer, one that Beckham now follows.
An Italian TV host, Paolo Calabresi, decided to play a gag on possibly the biggest sports (soccer/football is the biggest part of the club) club on earth, Real Madrid, and pose as Nicolas Cage for a Champions League match against AS Roma in Madrid this past weekend. Sports Illustrated reports:
“The truth is I was a little scared they would find me out, but from the first moment everyone was friendly with me,” Calabresi told Marca newspaper on Wednesday. “We knew there would be many repercussions. My phone won’t stop ringing.”
Videos posted on Spanish media Web sites showed Calabresi, whose English has an accent, being presented with a personalized Nicolas Cage team jersey from Calderon.
Calabresi also met and posed for photographs with Madrid forward Robinho.
Jesus Christ people really are retarded (especially Real Madrid. Viva Barca! I had to ) How do you not question the guy when you hear an American talking with an Italian accent?
If you’re Robinho you have to feel kinda pissed that you think you are getting pix with a big Hollywood star and not some jag off on Italian TV.
Seriously, this guy looks about as close to Nicolas Cage as I look to Brad Pitt.
Watch your nuts, Paolo.
UPDATE: I found a video of the whole thing. It’s after the break.
Normally I don’t post straight up sports stories but I couldn’t resist being a Bears fan.
Brett Favre brought his career to an end and cried like the pussy he is and I loved it. Though in fairness we have owned their asses the last 4 years or so perhaps I should want him to stick around a bit more so we could hand out a few more ass beatings.
Cry for me, Brett! CRYYYYY!!!!!
He was very talented no doubt about it, but over rated a bit. I’m not just saying that out of Packer hatred. If the Bears would have had him rather than the pathetic revolving door they call the QB position over the past 14 or so years he was in Green Bay I certainly would have taken it.
I mean he has 1 Super Bowl and he has the most interceptions EVER. If I took the name of the player out of that and asked you if that sounded like the best Quarterback of all time you’d laugh in my face. So…
Here is the video in all it’s glory. I might be finding a rip of it to upload so you can save it on your computer and watch it all the time. Maybe.
After her BF’s team, the Patriots, won against San Diego, she promised that she would run down the street nude if they didn’t beat the Giants in the Super Bowl.
I hate the Giants won, but I am loving that unless you want to be a no good, low down welch, you have to get nekkid and run down the street.
I hope there is some signage involved and perhaps some banners. Perhaps the nude run could be sponsored by Kleenex and Jurgens.
I have booked my ticket to NYC and bought a new telephoto lens.
Reebok Entertainment launched a project that pairs and athlete, as the star, with a movie star, as the director, where they are supposed to collaborate on a short film that will air on IFC.
If this is any indication of how the series will go, they better hire some real directors QUICK. This is coming from someone who is actually a fan of Henry and his club (FC Barcelona)
This is basically a jerk off fest commercial. Well done, no really, well done. /sarcasm
