Zlatan set the record straight on his official twitter page, “@Ibra_official: I have not talked to any UK journalist or anybody at The Mirror, not the first time this happens. The Mirror is a joke!http://t.co/YpO9tSMMTa“

"I'd have destroyed the Premier League…." Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Considering his sensational form, his recent hat-trick against Toulouse and his 22 league goals this season, ingenious PSG striker, Zlatan Ibrahimovic should be allowed to blow his trumpet a little please! Speaking recently to The Mirror, the Swedish footballer stated that he would have had a smashing success if he played in England.
“If I had played there, I would have destroyed it, like I have everywhere else,” . The 32 year-old former Barcelona player also taunted those who lashed at him for turning down a club in England (Arsenal) and joining Ajax when he was 16.
“Arsenal could have happened, as everybody knows — but I would not do a trial. Who do you think regrets that more, Arsene Wenger or Zlatan? The last time I faced England, which is supposed to be the best players in the Premier
League, what happened? Maybe people
need to be reminded that it was the Zlatan show.”

I’ve seen Lionel Messi’s childhood pictures and I can “boldly declare” that this kid bears a striking resemblance to the Barcelona forward. Filming on the Argentine’s life story has already started and the movie is expected to hit the cinemas before the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Produced by Spanish director Alex de la Iglesia, the film which centres on the life story of the 4-time Ballon d’Or winner is also an adaptation of Italian writer, Luca Caioli’s book titled, ” Messi: The Inside Story of the Boy Who Became a
Legend“.

"She has to apologise". Movie Marketers address Mercy Johnson's ban

This is an update on Nollywood’s (arguably) highest paid actress, Mercy Johnson’s alleged ban by movie marketers for charging exorbitant fees (N4/5million per movie). Remember her reaction? “Those who can’t afford Heineken should buy kaikai”. These Movie marketers, under the aegis of Film and Video Producers and Marketers Association of Nigeria (FVPMAN) have cleared the air, according to them, the ban has absolutely nothing to do with her fees but unprofessional conduct on set. And they have vowed not to lift the ban until she tenders a letter of apology to them.

Mr. Ajaegbu, spokesman of FVPMAN told Vanguard that it is a case of established indiscipline on the part of Mercy Johnson. “We did not ban Mercy because we have resolved never to play ourselves god in any one’s life. We only resolved to severe our business relationship with her because she have shown strong disregard to the rules of professional conduct and abuse on the terms of production contracts. The issue in question has no bearing on her fee or charges as widely speculated. It is a function of misconduct, unjust and unfair treatment of film producers. We are obviously not agitated over what Mercy is being paid because, we pay the bills.
We are strongly agitated because we anticipate that professional justification ought to have been given to the contract to act or perform. We believe that the sanctity of contract ought to have been respected. The facts as we know before are that some of our members contracted Mercy at a particular scale of charge, when she collected money from higher bidders, she disregarded the contracts at lesser price and to some, she gave stringent and unprofessional conditions. We had written a letter to her in this regard about a year ago. The letter was a private advice from our union as well as a caution. We thought it wise to first
caution her in case it was an unconscious attitude.

Her inconsiderate attitude of disregarding this untold hardship on producers leaves us with no option, than to severe this uncommon relationship. It is not a ban, but simply a survival strategy. We took our time to investigate these allegations and came to the conclusion that they are not spurious. We did strong internal engagements, disagreements before arriving at the actual prove of facts relating to this issue. Since the speculation in late October, last year, we had anticipated her to demonstrate some sort of remorse. What we see is more of blackmail and ridicule. What is said to the world by her publicist was the tale of how we are unable to afford her charges or portray our people as envious of what she is being paid.”

Rooney becomes the best paid player in the history of Manchester United

Manchester United’s dream of keeping England striker, Wayne Rooney at Old Trafford has finally materialized. He has just penned a new five-and-a-half-year, £300,000-a-week deal at Old Trafford, thus making him the best paid player in the history of Manchester United.
“I’m happy that everything is now finalised and I can carry on concentrating on my football.” The 29 year-old stated.
Manchester United boss, David Moyes was quoted thus on the club’s official website: “Wayne has been the best player in England since I put him into the Everton first team in 2003. Since becoming United manager in July last year, I have enjoyed working with him and seeing just how he has developed his incredible talent.
“With his ability, his experience and his desire to succeed, he is a vital part of my plans for the future and I’m absolutely thrilled he has accepted the challenge. I said last July that Wayne has an outstanding chance to be a true legend of this club’s long and rich history.
He is just 42 goals away from overtaking Sir Bobby our record goalscorer and becoming the first United player to hit 250 goals for the club. These opportunities only come to special players and I’m confident Wayne will set a new record that will take decades to reach.”

2face Idibia's management addresses pregnancy rumours. (Official Statement)

Few days ago, a soft sell magazine published a story that award-winning singer, 2face Idibia had put a Lagos-based banker, Teniola Onise in the family way; an allegation he vehemently denied via his official twitter page. Here’s an official statement on the issue.
2Face Pregnancy Rumours Completely Unfounded.
A few days ago, a rumour surfaced about 2Face Idibia allegedly getting a young
woman pregnant and various versions of the story have emerged since then.
2Face would like to categorically state that these stories are completely false and baseless. The press has published this story in many versions without confirming the authenticity of the allegations. He would like to make it very clear: THERE IS NO TRUTH TO THIS STORY.
He would also like to request that the media houses that have already published this story issue retractions without any delay. 2Face does not have anything to hide and if the story were true, he would admit it and not try to lie to the public by denying it. When striving to maintain journalistic integrity, it is important for the press to make sure that they have irrefutable evidence before publishing potentially harmful news such as this.
In this case, there has been no confirmation of the authenticity of the
rumour. We do not know what the true motives are behind the peddling of such
a vicious rumor, but we would like to make sure that everyone knows the truth about it.

However, Davis Mac-Iyalla, co-ordinator of the protest made a shocking revelation, “I know at least seven in both the Senate and House of Reps. They are in the minority and it will be wrong of me to mention their names, but they are there.”
