Beverly Osu may have a perfect body, but that's
not what's most important to her as she stuns on the new cover of House
of Maliq's June 2014 issue and opened up about being single says "the
hardest
and loneliest thing for her is controlling her emotions" .
The former BBA housemate, actress, video vixen and
entrepreneur, Beverly looks hotter than ever! The stunning beauty shows off her
flawless physique in images shot by Aham Ibeleme.
This time, she was
looking chic in curly blonde from Sylvia's hair collection, makeup by Omaleecha
makeovers , she also wore a black HOS body suit.
And there you have it. The first draw of the 2014 World Cup. It was not very exciting.
The
result especially stings Nigerians, who has visions of moving through
to the knockout stage. That chance is still very much in play, but now
they'll almost certainly have to beat Bosnia-Herzegovina. Chances are
they aren't taking down Argentina.
It seemed for all the world
that Nigeria would get a goal across early, as they constantly pressured
the Iranian defense. But some bad luck and then overall poor play kept
them from scoring, and, frankly, they were lucky to get out with a
point.
************ 90' -- A late chance for Nigeria that's, you guessed it, cleared harmlessly. Another good chance headed out by Iran at the net. 86' -- The last five minutes have been mostly poorly-executed longballs and clearances. Just wanted to let you know I'm still here. 81' -- Meanwhile, here's a moving picture of everyone watching:
77' -- Iran
with a decent chance, again, but, again, the header comes off with a
whimper. It will be a miracle if someone scores in this game. 75' -- Hey!
A booking! Iran's Andranik Timotian earns a yellow card. Nigeria gets a
shot off after the free kick, but nothing of consequence. A draw is a
loss for the Nigerians, and they're nearly out of time. 67' -- Iran gets a decent chance at the top of the box, but the volley sails waaaay too high. 65' -- Nigeria give-away then Iran give-away then Nigeria give-away leads to Iran corner, which is poor. 63' -- Iran's Reza gives it a go from distance -- why not? -- though it bounds harmlessly away. 58' -- Nigeria gets another chance, but Emmanuel Emenike's shot sails well wide. 57' -- They're
still playing. There have been fouls and shots and stuff, but nothing
approaching a goal. Could we be heading towards the first draw of the
2014 World Cup?! 50' -- Prediction: Nigeria will continue messing around and end up losing. (I'm pretty good at predictions -- see Group G.)
Iran gets another chance but misses narrowly, then wastes a free kick. 47' -- The second half has started. A fair bit of falling and not scoring -- so it's much like the first. Halftime: Sometimes when a game is expected to be bad or boring or poorly-played it ends up being so wacky it's fun.
That is not happening in the Nigeria-Iran game.
The
Nigerians have dominated possession but can't find the net, while Iran
has struggled to control the ball but have had some decent chances.
Regardless, it has been rough.
Nigeria, who figures to move on,
will be in terrible trouble if they end this game in a draw. But they
keep seeing chances wasted; must be frustrating. 40' -- Nigeria has fired a couple of shots in the last few minutes. Neither particularly threatening. 34' -- Wow. Iran almost drives in a header off a corner. They've not had the ball much, but Iran has had a couple decent chances around the net. 32' -- Nigeria earns a free kick then a corner, but nothin' doin'. The corner was awful, in fact, sailing untouched out of bounds. 27' -- Nigeria has had possession 70 percent of the half. Just felt like sharing. 23' -- Surprisingly, Iran kinda generated a chance. They didn't manage a shot, but still! 21' -- Godfrey Aboabona carried off. Apparently an ankle injury. 18' -- Efe
Ambrose sends a decent cross in that's caught by the keeper. Still no
score, though the action has been almost entirely composed of Nigeria's
attack. 16' -- Hats off to Iran. It's a minor miracle the Nigerians haven't scored yet. But it's coming. 9' -- It is target practice for the Nigerians. Somehow the miss two terrific chances in front of the net. 8' -- A great chance for Nigeria off the corner, but...something happened that drew the referee's whistle. 4' -- Nigeria with an early chance as Victor Moses turns and fires, but nothing doing. Not a bad look, though. 3' -- Important update from a colleague: 1' -- And
we're underway. Iran opens with possession and immediately mashes it
back to the Nigeria keeper. So now the Iran side is where its
comfortable -- on defense.
But the American Idol judge proved over the weekend that she can also
sizzle with very little on... her face, that is. Sorry for the tease,
fellas.
Via a pair of Instagram selfies yesterday, the singer lounged by the
pool for "no makeup day," captioning one of the following shots with:
"#realface #trueselfie #iwokeuplikethis."
You tell us, ladies: Do you appreciate J. Lo showing off her all-natural look?
Or do you sort of hate her for still looking so gosh darn beautiful?
Lopez has been all over the news lately.
Amidst cheating rumors (on his end), she split a few weeks ago from Casper Smart, while she then cracked out funny bone in half by dancing around in tight pants (and a wig!) on an appearance with Jimmy Fallon.
With these pictures, meanwhile, Lopez becomes just the latest female beauty to reveal her no makeup face online:
Fans took to Twitter on June 16 to celebrate what would have been the
43rd birthday of Tupac Shakur, who was shot and killed in Las Vegas in
1996.
To this day, his murder remains unsolved - for good reason, according to Suge Knight and others who claim Tupac is alive - but his legacy lives on.
Tupac's music and life continue to inspire the masses and he has become
something of a legend in spite of - or perhaps because of - his
premature death.
Born June 16, 1971, in East Harlem, 2Pac was also a poet and an actor, a
man of surprising depth and talent who transcended popular culture.
He's gone but not forgotten ... save for the occasional Tupac hologram performing at Coachella or Broadway show (Holler If Ya Hear Me) based on him.
A biopic by filmmaker John Singleton is also in the works, which should
be awesome for the West Coast hip hop pioneer (of East Coast origins).
Music lovers are paying tribute to Tupac on Twitter today with the
hashtag #HappyBirthdayTupac. We wish his family and friends the very
best.
Here's a look at other rappers who rank among the smartest in the game:
Drake was 2013's most Tweeted about rapper. He definitely knows a thing
or two about social media, and the personal stories behind his songs
have made him immensely popular.
Beyonce's Blue Ivy Carter photos
may be some of the most adorable things we've seen in years, but if
recent rumors are to be believed, Baby Blue may soon have some cuteness
competition.
The latest issue of Life & Style claims that Beyonce is not only pregnant, but pregnant and betrayed, as a result of allegations that Jay Z is cheating with Casey Cohen.
The tabloid doesn't have the greatest reputation for honesty and
accuracy, but given that Queen Bey has openly discussed her desire for a
second child in recent months, another pregnancy certainly wouldn't
come as a shock.
"Sources" tell the magazine that Beyonce had planned to divorce Jay but
changed her mind after finding out that she's expecting.
"Beyonce knows everything about what's going on with Jay Z and other
women," claims one insider. "Solange is pushing Beyonce to get
divorced."
Frankly, we don't think Bey seems like the type to stick with a cheater
just for the sake of her kids or her public image. After all this is
the independent woman who inspired the most important work of feminist
art in recent memory...the Beyoncelogues:
She undoubtedly look great for her age – but
not this great. Maria Carey was left red-faced on Friday after she was
busted posting a photograph from 1997 to her Twitter followers
alongside a message that she was spending time with ‘dembabies’. The
happy snap shows Mariah, who celebrated her 44th birthday in March,
relaxing in a white vest top, her tanned skin on display.
‘Quality time with #dembabies…so much happiness!!’, she wrote.
Rewind seventeen years, and that same
youthful picture of Mariah was broadcast on an episode of The Oprah
Winfrey Show, when Mariah was just 27.
Buzzfeed called out the Hero songstress when they spotted the similarity.
‘That first photo of Mariah looks pretty
familiar,’ the website wrote. ‘Oh, that’s ‘cause it appeared in a 1997
episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show.’
And here’s one you may have seen earlier: The original 1997 picture was first shown on an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show
This is one way to celebrate your team winning a match at the World Cup…
Chilean porn star Marlen Doll has hit the international headlines for
her interesting choice of celebrations after Chile beat Australia in
their opening game at the World Cup.
Before the match with the Socceroos, Marlen Doll took to Twitter to
announce that she’d be available for an eight hour sex marathon should
Chile get the three points against the Aussies.
After the 3-1 win, Marlen Doll held up her end of bargain, whilst
actually extending her sex marathon to a full half-day 12 hours session.
Yvonne Nelson seems to be going through a
relationship withdrawal this weekend. The beautiful actress earlier today dishing out advice and
encouragement to her fellow ‘single ladies’ out there on her twitter handle. Yvonne went on to
reveal the reason why she is single or perhaps being dumbed left and
right by a tall list of men? According to her tweets, she is single
because she hates being lied to and cheated on.
She said :
I’m single because I can’t take being lied to, cheated on and ooops lets just say haven’t met the one
Hmm abeg make we all pray for our sister
Yvonne Nelson to find the right one soon. Leave your comments and
read her advice below …
Don’t settle for being someone’s just something to do when you can be somebody else’s priority.
Iran and Nigeria are two teams who are not expected to pull
up any trees in this summer's tournament, but they'll be looking to
prove the doubters wrong tonight. Here is all the information you need
for the first game in Group F between Iran and Nigeria.
Managers: Carlos Queiroz (Portugal) and Stephen Keshi (Nigeria) Key clash: Reza Ghoochannejhad v Joseph Yobo
Charlton’s
Ghoochannej had is the key to Iran’s counterattacking play and Nigerian
captain Yobo will be keen to keep him under lock and key as he is
likely to be troubled by the youngsters pace. Iran will work hard in
defence and then hope Ghoochannejhad can make the breakthrough. One to watch: Kenneth Omeruo (Nigeria)
Chelsea
youngster Omeruo spent time on loan at Middlesbrough last season but
has recently been a key man in Nigeria’s defence despite his
youthfulness. The 20-year-old starred as Nigeria won the African Cup of
Nations and will be looking to put himself on the map ahead of another
likely loan move this summer. Interesting facts
Iran have won only one of their nine games at the World Cup, against USA in 1998 (2-1).
Carlos Queiroz’s side have never kept a clean sheet in a World Cup game.
Nigeria
are winless in their last eight World Cup games (D2 L6). It’s the
longest current drought among the 32 teams taking part in 2014.
The one previous meeting between Iran and Nigeria came in a friendly in 1998; the Super Eagles won 1-0.
No team scored more goals than Iran in the 2014 Asian World Cup qualifiers (30).
Nigeria’s
three goals at the 2010 World Cup all came from set piece situations
(one penalty, one direct free kick and one from a throw-in).
Over
half (11/21) of the goals that Nigeria have conceded at World Cups have
come from set plays, however (three corners, two direct free kicks,
four indirect free kicks and two penalties).
No goalkeeper kept more clean sheets in the top five European leagues in 2013/14 than Nigeria’s Vincent Enyeama (21, for Lille).
It is 3 days less 16 years without a win for Nigeria at the World Cup. Last victory was on the 19th June 1998.
No member of the Nigeria’s squad has ever score in a World Cup; Yobo made an assist in 2002.
Women across the country are preparing for a summer of boyfriends and husbands glued to the television as the World Cup begins.
And it seems the girls really will be getting
even less attention than expected as two in five men admit they would
actually turn down sex to watch the football.
According to a new study even if they do get
intimate with their partners, 42 per cent of men admit they will try to
‘get it over with quickly’ in order to watch an important game.But
there’s room to compromise, as more than a third (37 per cent) say they
would accept their partner’s offer of sex – if they could still have the
TV on to keep an eye on the pitch-side action at the same time.
More than a quarter (27 per cent) say they think about the beautiful game while getting intimate.
As this summer’s football season reaches
fever pitch, the connections between football and sex are clear: the
passion, the excitement, the performance… and those who are quite
obviously faking it.
With the footballing elite preparing to
perform on the global stage, discussions about the feigning of injuries
are sure to take centre stage along with the all too familiar, and often
quite acrobatic, dives.
However, anyone thinking of taking a tumble
should beware because nearly 70 per cent of football fans agreed that
those who faked it on the pitch ruined the game for everyone.
One in three even went as far as claiming it was worse to fake it on the pitch than in the bedroom.
Researchers found that whilst plain speaking was favoured by most, many
are still likely to fake illness or injury this summer to get out of
having sex.
Saying ‘I’ve got a bad back’ or ‘I’m too
tired’ made up the top three excuses, with ‘I’ve got a headache’ and
‘I’ve been working late’ completing the top five.
The poll of 2,000 men from 72 Point was
commissioned by Durex to highlight how a summer of football will affect
the nation’s love life with their #DontFakeIt campaign.
A spokesperson said: ‘There is a well-worn
stereotype of women making excuses to avoid sex but it seems that when
the football is on, the tables are turned.
‘Excitement levels for football fans across
the globe are reaching fever pitch and for some, the passion they feel
for the beautiful game is on a par with, if not greater than, that for
their partner.
‘But they need to ensure that once those 90
minutes are up, all attention is redirected solely to their loved one…
otherwise there may be penalties!
‘There will always some who are guilty of
faking it whether it’s on the football pitch or in the bedroom and we
think now is the time to stand up and declare – great sex is like great
football; it’s betting without the faking… and it looks like the public
agree!’
Top ten reasons men refuse sex
1. I want to watch the football
2. I’ve got a bad back
3. I’m too tired
4. I have a headache
5. I’ve been working late
6. I’ve got work to do
7. I’m too drunk
8. Can we do it later?
9. I don’t feel well
10. I’ve got an early start in the morning
