England defender Rio Ferdinand has announced his retirement from international football.

The Manchester United player, 34, who won 81 caps, said he wants to concentrate on his club career.
After a great deal of thought, I have decided the time is right to retire from international football.
Ferdinand's England career
1997: Makes England debut v Cameroon at Wembley
1998: Named in squad for 1998 World Cup finals but does not play
2000: Left out of Euro 2000 squad
2002: Scores first England goal in 3-0 win over Denmark at 2002 World Cup
2004: Banned for eight months after missing a drugs test
2006: Plays five games at World Cup in Germany
2008: Captains England for first time in defeat by France in March - loses out to John Terry in battle for permanent skipper role
2010: Terry is stripped of captaincy and Ferdinand is given the armband but injury rules him out of the 2010 World Cup
2011: Makes his 81st appearance in a Euro 2012 qualifier against Switzerland
2012: Left out of England's squad for that summer's European Championships
2013: In March,Recalled for World Cup qualifiers against San Marino and Montenegro before later withdrawing
2013: In May,Announces retirement from international football

He played in three World Cups - 1998, 2002 and 2006 - but was ruled out of the 2010 tournament in South Africa because of a knee injury.

To have captained his country, and to play at three World Cups, marks him out among a very special group of players.

At 34, it is right to stand aside.

Nigeria president declares state of emergency

Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan has declared a state of emergency in three states in an attempt to curb the increasingly violent attacks by Islamist militant groups "Boko Haram"

Jonathan  said The military will take "all necessary action" to "put an end to the impunity of insurgents and terrorists" in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe.

Mr Jonathan also ordered more troops to be sent to the north-eastern states.

The Islamist group, whose name means "Western education is forbidden" in the local Hausa language, is fighting to overthrow the government and create an Islamic state in the north.

This is not the first time that the president has declared a state of emergency. The question is whether more troops on the ground will make any difference.

Many analysts say the military has been losing the battle for hearts and minds and abuse allegations have helped boost Boko Haram.

Militants from Boko Haram have been blamed for most of the violence, which has left 2,000 people dead since 2010.

Nigeria - a multiethnic nation of more than 160 million people - is also affected by a spate of conflicts over land, religion and oil.

In the latest violence, 53 people were killed and 13 villages burnt in central Nigeria's Benue state on Tuesday.

And it is the first time that Mr Jonathan has admitted that parts of the country are no longer under central government control.

I pray to god help them find a way to deal with the growing violence.

Although Kim Kardashian attended the Met Gala in NYC on May 6 for the first time on the arm of her boyfriend, Kanye West, she was the only Kardashian to grace the red carpet — and a new report claims that’s exactly how Anna Wintour wanted it!

Anna Wintour may have welcomed Kim Kardashian to the Met Gala last week, but she dislikes Kim Kardashian and everything Kardashian stands for. 

Wintour apparently banned the pregnant star's mother Kris Jenner from attending the the punk-themed event.

According to a source,the U.S. Vogue editor-in-chief is said to have issued a strict ban on any further reality stars.
Anna approves every star who enters and although she finally relented on Kim, she drew the line at Kris, who was desperate to attend.Anna wants a parade of stars at the gala, not a parade of reality stars!
She apparently told staff that 'one Kardashian is enough!'.

Looks like she will not allow them to even appear on Vogue.com, Now I know why Kim was thoughtfully cropped out of the photo on Vogue’s Met Gala slideshow. 

Guarantee next year there will be none............there is already backlash in NY from letting one reality person in.

Winnie Mandela ordered to sell possessions to pay debt

A South African magistrate has ordered Winnie Madikizela-Mandela to auction off scores of paintings, sculptures and a silver tea set to pay off her debts, according to a court document seen Tuesday.

Household goods belonging to the once revered anti-apartheid campaigner and ex-wife of Nelson Mandela, will go under the hammer next Tuesday to cover fees she owes to an upmarket Johannesburg private school, according to the order released by a Soweto sheriff.

A dining table set, 50 paintings, sculptures and a “room with books” are listed in the sale.

Madikizela-Mandela owes the school around 40,000 rand ($4,300, 3,350 euros) in accommodation fees for a family member, the Sowetan newspaper reported.

Mandela married Winnie five years before he was jailed for sabotage during his opposition to apartheid in 1963.

The pair separated shortly before he became the country’s first black president after the end of minority rule in 1994.

Controversy has followed Madikizela-Mandela closely in recent years.

She was convicted a decade ago for using her position as the ruling African National Congress women’s league leader to defraud a bank.

Looks like Naomi Campbell’s ex has already moved on.

Less than one month after splitting from the hotheaded supermodel, Vladimir Doronin was spotted on a supa-dupa yacht with a much younger version of Naomi.

The last time Naomi and hotel and property mogul Vladimir were pictured together was on Miami Beach in March.

When they were first spotted off the shores of Miami, the paparazzi went crazy trying to get the first set of reunion photos of the successful model and the billionaire businessman, but they quickly realized that the African beauty was not Naomi.

This yacht cruise was taking place in Miami while Naomi was seen in the UK.

We don’t know who this lady is, but the fact that she is much younger than Naomi, she better watch her back because Naomi, who can be extremely violent, is coming after her.

It’s sad how far black women will go just to be light skinned.They should just accept who they are and the skin God gave them to work with and just be proud.People come in different shapes,sizes, and skin tones, they just happen to have darker skin and they just need to realize that they can’t change that.

Everyone is beautiful in their own way.

There's been a lot of commotion about women MPs - because their skin are noticeably lighter than what they really look like.
I hope they are not trying to look like late pop star Michael Jackson:nuts:

But the fact remains ... The government approved them.

Kim’s worst fears might be coming to light! Kanye.

InTouch Magazine is putting an ahem, unique spin on the whole Kim Kardashian/Kanye West love story with the headline:Pregnant Kim’s worst fear: He’s GAY!

Then used a random candid of West standing next to a guy at a promotional event, claiming this person is West’s alleged “lover.”The cover says “Is this Kanye’s alleged lover?

Didn’t see that one coming! Apparently, Kanye’s friendship with Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci is more than just a friendship. According to the mag, the two are an item!

The mag is making some pretty strong accusations that after the Met Ball on May 6, Kim saw comments online claimed that openly gay Riccardo Tisci, who designed her controversial gown, purposely dressed her in a bad gown at the Met Gala out of jealously over West.

The source says:
Kim freaked out, . If it turns out that Kanye is involved with Riccardo, she will be utterly embarrassed — more so than she’s ever been in her life.

They’re super close. They spend a lot of time together in Kanye’s apartment. And what more proof do you need than that?!

Kanye is obsessed with Ricardo.They have a very deep bond.
Kanye has been spending a lot of time in Paris recently, and that is where Tisci  Lives! Also, Tisci  Reportedly just bought a place very near Kanye’s home in New York.
There are some facts Kim can’t deny,noting, Kanye has spent her entire pregnancy living close to Riccardo in the French capital… And Riccardo recently purchased an apartment less than half a mile from Kanye’s in NYC’s Soho neighborhood.
This whole thing seems pretty off the wall, but anything is possible….right? Gay men knock up women all of the time ...dayum! I hope its just a story,I like this couple!

Kelly Rowland admits to being envious of Beyonce's career in her new song

As Destiny's Child they stormed the music charts and sold millions of records around the world.

But it always seemed that Beyonce was the more prominent one in the group, somewhat overshadowing fellow members Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland.

That became even more evident when the group split up and went on to have solo careers.

Kelly Rowland wants the spotlight and a confessional is a good way to do it.

The R&B songstress has just dropped "Dirty Laundry," the aptly titled brand new single from her forthcoming album “Talk a Good Game.” In it, the 32-year-old admits to being envious of her former Destiny's Child bandmate, Beyoncé.

She also talks about being in an abusive relationship ― led by the touchingly spare piano ballad, the R&B jam spools into a dark confessional with Rowland singing about her abusive ex.

The song kicks off with soul-baring lyrics lamenting how Bey's superstardom overshadowed her own solo career and ends sadly,with a leering key,Love is pain,Pain is love!

Kelly sings: When you’re soaked in tears for years, it never airs out..........
While my sister was on stage, killin' it like a motherf**
I was enraged, feelin' it like a motherf**
Bird in a cage, you would never know what I was dealin' with
Went out separate ways, but I was happy she was killin' it
Bittersweet, she was up, I was down
No lie, I feel good for her, but what do I do now
Forget the records,off the record, I was goin' through some bullsh**t
Post-survivor, she on fire, who wanna hear my bullsh**t
Meanwhile, this nigga putting his hands on me
Swear y’all don’t know the half of this industry...........
Listen to Kelly Rowland gets confessional with 'Dirty Laundry  Straight from the heart...so touching!

I tweet every morning, my workouts, because I want women to see - especially us big women - that you don’t have to let them cut you and suck it out, you don't have to let them staple you up, you don't have to let them give you a pill, you don't have to let them put a band around your organs.

Rihanna sure has a way of destroying the reputation of every man she messes with.

For a while she was kicking it with Knicks player J.R. Smith and apparently after Chris Brown dumped her she decided to go with the NBA player, who is struggling in the playoffs.

Some Knicks fans are blaming the Bajan singer for J.R’s bad moves on the court saying the 25-year-old singer is nothing more than a distraction.

Just before he was suspended for elbowing Celtics guard Jason Terry in Game One 3 of the first round, J.R. was spotted in a Manhattan club with Rihanna, and a fan by the name of Peruvian_Gawd blasted her on Instagram for distracting the ballplayer.

Rather than ignoring the fan, RiRi replied:
F*ck you and your wack a*s team!! Nobody don’t want that desert thirsty ni*ga!!! He f*ckin up cus his a*s be hungover from clubbing every night during playoffs!! So your issue aint with ras**ole me.
I feel sorry for Smith,things ain't pretty!

Do you think Chris Brown did the right thing by dumping the bad girl?
