Nick Gordon, Bobbi's Boyfriend Arrested

Nick Gordon, boyfriend of Bobbi Kristina, was arrested for speeding, according to TMZ. Authorities say Gordon was taken into custody in Alpharetta, Georgia, for going 82 miles per hour in a 35 mile per hour zone last night. He was recklessly driving in a retail area known for high pedestrian activity.
A law enforcement source told TMZ, “We are fortunate because that’s such a busy corridor with high-end retail shopping, restaurants and pedestrians at crosswalks.”
Apparently Gordon’s arrest occurred just hours after Bobbi Kristina’s car accident. The daughter of Whitney Houston totaled her Camaro after losing control of the vehicle and plummeting down an embankment. The car hit several trees along the way, but Bobbi Kristina emerged from the accident fine. Police issued her a citation for failure to drive in her lane.

Messi, Ronaldo, Iniesta For Ballon d'Or

Liga BBVA: Lionel Messi presents Ballon d'Or
FIFA and France Football have announced that Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Cristiano Ronaldo are the remaining three candidates in the running for the 2012 FIFA Ballon d'Or.

The Argentine has netted an impressive 82 goals since January, and needs only three more in 2012 to equal Gerd Muller's record of 85 strikes for club and country in a calendar year.

Messi helped Barcelona to the Copa del Rey in 2011-12, while also guiding Argentina to top spot in its 2014 World Cup qualification section.

Ronaldo played a key role in Real Madrid's Liga triumph last term with his 46 league goals, and also made it to the semifinals of Euro 2012 with Portugal.

Iniesta, meanwhile, triumphed with Spain at last summer's European Championship, as well as winning the Copa del Rey with the Blaugrana.

Messi previously won the Ballon d'Or in 2009, while also picking up the prestigious trophy in 2010 and 2011 after it merged with the FIFA World Player of the Year award.

Ronaldo emerged victorious in 2008, but had to settle for second spot in 2009 and 2011. Iniesta finished as runner-up in 2010.

Vicente Del Bosque, Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho have been nominated for the Coach of the Year prize.

Radamel Falcao, Neymar and Miroslav Stoch are the three candidates in the running to win the Puskas award for goal of the season, while Marta, Abby Wambach and Alex Morgan are in contention for the Women’s Player of the Year title.

Bruno Bini, Norio Sasaki and Pia Sundhage are the trio up for the Coach of the Year trophy in women's football.

The winners of all of the awards will be revealed at the FIFA Ballon d’Or gala as part of a televised show at the Zurich Kongresshaus on Jan. 7, 2013.

No More Europa League?

Michel Platini (Uefa president)

UEFA president Michel Platini has hinted that the Champions League and Europa League could face some major changes in the not too distant future.

The concept of the Europa League has come under fire in recent years as clubs from the so-called bigger leagues often field their reserves, and a number of recent reports have suggested that the competition could disappear completely, while the Champions League could be extended to 64 teams.

Platini had previously revealed that UEFA is looking into reforming both competitions, and he has now made it clear that a decision will be made in 2014.

"It is something that we are discussing," Platini told Ouest-France when questioned on the subject of shutting down the Europa League in favor of a 64-team Champions League.

"There's an ongoing debate about the concept of the European competitions between 2015 and 2018. It's being discussed and a final decision will be made in 2014. Nothing has been finalized yet."

Platini also took the time to discuss the possibility of a European superleague organized outside of UEFA, and stressed that he' was not too worried about the idea.

"This is a matter that regularly comes up, but it does not worry me to be honest. I can't see how it would work outside the framework of UEFA," Platini said.

He added, "Who would referee the games? Where would the games be played? Do a lot of people really want it? I don't think so."

Bale Denies Diving

Tottenham Hotspur winger Gareth Bale has denied allegations of diving, despite picking up a yellow card for simulation once again in the 2-1 victory against Liverpool at White Hart Lane.

The Welsh wizard was instrumental in Spurs' success, putting the opener on a plate for Aaron Lennon after another trademark run before he added the second himself with a sumptuous free kick.

He did, however, put it into his own net in unfortunate circumstances after Lennon's attempted goal-line clearance inadvertently thumped the 23-year-old flush in the face before flying into an empty net.

But his performance was once again overshadowed as he received a caution from referee Phil Dowd after being adjudged to have simulated following a challenge from Daniel Agger.

"I thought I got clipped a little bit," he told Sky Sportsafter the game. "Sometimes it happens. You have just got to get on with it."

Spurs had previously suffered three successive defeats before the derby win over West Ham, and after back-to-back victories Andre Villas-Boas' side now sits fifth in the table above Everton and north London rival Arsenal.
"We are not too far off [where we want to be]," Bale added. "There were good results elsewhere for us tonight, which was important.
"We have just got to focus on ourselves, focus on game by game, and I think we are improving in every game."

Liverpool never gave me a chance, says Carroll

QPR v West Ham United, Andy Carroll
  Andy Carroll has aired his dissatisfaction with the way he feels he has been treated by Liverpool, revealing that his dearth of prospects at the club prompted him to accept a loan move to Premier League rival West Ham.
As things stand, Carroll remains a Liverpool player, but the 23-year-old disclosed how West Ham manager Sam Allardyce offered him the regular first team football that was not on the cards for him at Anfield.

"I haven’t really had a fair chance at Liverpool," Carroll told ESPN. "I was really told that I should move on to keep playing regular football, and obviously then Sam wanted me here and told me I would be playing regular games. So, for me it was a no-brainer coming here and to play.

"Obviously, I didn’t really get a chance there."

Despite holding the title of Liverpool’s record signing at 35 million pounds, the former Newcastle icon was never able to hold down a regular starting spot on Merseyside, a situation that was exacerbated by the arrival of Brendan Rodgers in the summer.

"A new manager came in and I wasn’t part of his plans," Carroll claimed. "For me to play football, that was my chance to do that. That is why I am here at Upton Park.

"I think I could fit into every system. I believe in what I can do. Obviously [Rodgers] has his beliefs and he didn’t think that. But for me, obviously, it was better to move on instead of waiting for my chance - which he told me might not come."

Carroll also spoke of his happiness at scoring for Roy Hodgson’s England at Euro 2012, and of his determination to use his chance at Upton Park to prove himself as a striker of international pedigree.

"The work I put in over the season, I deserved that goal," he said. "I kept my head a lot when I could have lost it at Liverpool. I got my chance at the Euros and I took it. Coming here, I have got a great chance to start games and score goals, which I haven’t really had many of last season.

"I don’t think I have got a point to prove, that is the wrong way to put it. I know what I can do and the ability I have got. I know what I am capable of. If other people don’t believe it, that is fine. I just get on with it. But at the end of the day, I know what I can do."

Messi is From Another World, says Fabregas

Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas has hailed his teammate Lionel Messi, after the Argentine struck a scintillating hat trick in the 5-4 victory over Deportivo La Coruna.

The Blaugrana were pegged back after taking a 3-0 lead, with Javier Mascherano earning a red card, though Tito Vilanova's men would hold on in an entertaining match at Riazor.

Fabregas praised the hat trick hero, also insisting that the most important thing was the three points.

"Messi comes from a long trip with the national team and [is] always here. He gives us a lot. Indeed, he understands all. Messi is from another world," the 25-year-old told reporters after the game. "These things [the red card] happen in football. [We] need to analyse whether or not it was a penalty, or a red card. But we have been very good in that little bit of a crazy [game]. The important thing was the three points."

The former Arsenal captain also spoke of his mixed start to the season, but maintains that he has been working hard under Vilanova.

"I have always believed in our chances, I've always been quiet and I worked hard. I've prepared very well and I will keep working. The coach makes the decisions," he said.  "I was very comfortable and when [being replaced by] Xavi, what remains is to sit and clap. His position has made me feel comfortable, the ball was over, [there was] more connection and I have always played in this position since childhood. It favors my game."

Barcelona hosts Scottish side Celtic in the Champions League in midweek.

KimYe On Vaccation


Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are taking Rome by storm, without holding back on the public displays of affections. KimYe was snapped sharing a smootch on Thursday outside a  restaurant in Italy. Many speculate this European vacation might be in celebration of Kim's upcoming 32nd birthday on October 21.
This follows a lovey dovey tweet that Kim sent earlier this week, "But my favorite male rapper of all time is Kanye "  after saying "Now Playing- Andrea Bocelli "can't help falling in love with you." He's my favorite male singer of all time!" Stand by your man.
The media-loving pair recently caused some commotion after Kanye apparently went H.A.M. on a photographer who asked Kim about her ex Reggie Bush and his bun in the oven. According to TMZ, a paparazzo asked, "Kim did you know Reggie is here [in Miami] having dinner?" and adding, "Did you wanna go congratulate him on his pregnancy?" Ye tried to grab a camera from the offending photographer (but did not make physical contact with her) while Kim kept a smile on the entire time.

City Denies Barca Duo

Sergio Busquets, Barcelona
  Manchester City has denied speculation that it is interested in Barcelona duo Cesc Fabregas and Sergio Busquets, stating that it has not made an offer, and is not planning to either.

Reports had suggested that City had made contact with the Spanish giants about the availability of former Arsenal man Fabregas, and also Busquets, who made his 50th appearance for his national team in the 1-1 draw against France.

However, the English club stated that this is not the case, and it will not be inquiring about the Spanish duo.

A Manchester City statement said: "There's no basis to these claims and the club has neither made nor is it planning to make an offer for these players."

City strengthened its midfield in the summer with the acquisition of Javi Garcia from Benfica, though it did also see Netherlands international Nigel de Jong leave for Milan.

Fabregas left Arsenal for Camp Nou in summer 2011, for an initial fee believed to be in the region of 23.5 million pounds, while Busquets has been at the club his entire career, joining the youth team in 2005.

Suso Signs Long Term Deal

World Football Challenge friendly; Suso, Liverpool v Toronto FC
  Liverpool midfielder Suso has put pen to paper on a new long-term contract with the club.

The 18-year-old joined the Merseyside outfit from his local side Cadiz in 2010, featuring in the Reds' youth and reserves teams before making his senior debut against Young Boys in the UEFA Europa League in September. The teenager has now played for the first team on four occasions, and indicated that manager Brendan Rodgers' belief in him was a huge factor behind the extension.


"I am really happy," Suso told the club's official website. "Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world and this is the right place for me. I am happy Brendan has shown trust in me. I had no questions about signing a new deal and I am really glad to have done so.

"I am comfortable here. I have played some games for the first team and I hope to continue doing that, but I need to work hard every day for that to happen. This is one of the best days of my life."

Rodgers had indicated on Thursday that a deal was near completion, stating that he has been really impressed with the youngster's technique and creativity. The Northern Irishman reiterated his thoughts about the player's abilities, adding that his commitment to the club is great news.

"We are all delighted Suso has committed his long-term future to Liverpool Football club," Rodgers said. "At 18, he has demonstrated outstanding technical qualities but also shown very good temperament to play for such a prestigious club. His commitment is very good news for all our young Academy players and the excellent work taken place by the Academy coaches and staff."

Silva Out For 2 Games

David Silva injured during the match between Spain and France
Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has confirmed that influential midfielder David Silva will miss the club's next two matches with a hamstring injury.

Silva was carried off after 12 minutes of Spain's World Cup qualification draw with France on Tuesday and there were initial fears that he could be set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Mancini has revealed, however, that although Silva will miss the Premier League fixture with West Brom on Saturday, as well as Wednesday's Champions League clash with Ajax, he should be fit in time to face Swansea on October 27.
"We have a lot of injury problems after the international break," Mancini told reporters. "David has a hamstring problem and is not ready for tomorrow."

He added, "We hope that he will be ready for the next Premier League game against Swansea."
The City manager also confirmed that Javi Garcia and Jack Rodwell would be missing for his side's trip to the Hawthorns.

"Javi I think will be out for another week maybe, Jack is out too," he said.

Ashley Young Fit To Return

EPL; Ashley Young; Everton v Manchester United
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson said that Ashley Young is fit again, while another ailing Red Devil, Chris Smalling, is still in the process of making his comeback.

Young has been out of action with a knee injury that he suffered in September but is now ready to be considered for a first team place against Stoke City, a selection problem that Ferguson is more than happy to have. He has played just 80 minutes all season across all competitions. 

"Very few players can cross as well as he can, and his goalscoring ratio is very good," Ferguson told reporters.
The 70-year-old will also be happy with Smalling's progress as he recovers from a broken metatarsal he suffered in the summer. The England defender will bring greatly needed numbers into a thin Manchester United defense that has had to call upon the young and untested Scott Wootton at times during the opening months of the campaign.

More good news that the United manager revealed is that all players came back from international duty unscathed, as it is "always a time when you're a bit concerned, but we've been lucky this time," according to the long-time manager.

T.I Stays Out Of Gucci Mane & Jeezy`s Beef

Gucci Mane, T.I., Young Jeezy
Warring sons of the ATL Gucci Mane and Young Jeezy may be tied up in beef, but T.I. is keeping his hands free. Asked about the ongoing feud and Gucci Mane's implication that he might be somehow involved, T.I. said he knew nothing of the matter and insisted beef is the furthest thing from his mind.


"Sometimes things happen in life and you don't know why," he said in an interview with Hot 107.9. "I'm focused on that sack [of money]. So anything else, I don't even hear it."


Tip, who has been pursuing acting roles and business deals of late, made it clear that he was staying out of the feud and said the only thing on his mind currently is reaching higher levels of financial success.


"I'm trying to get at the same place that Jay [Jay-Z] and Puff [Diddy] at, net worth wise, so that's what I'm focused on. Period," he said.


Drama between Gucci and Jeezy escalated last week when the Snowman called Gucci "retarded" on the radio and Gucci released a diss track called "Truth," on which he alleges that Jeezy is a bad father among other things.

Drake Graduates High School


Aubrey Graham, 25. While his mom was probably not psyched that he bailed on the books as a teenager, the rapper, better known as Drake kind of made it work for him.
Well, Drizzy made it official recently, announcing to his Twitter followers that after leaving Toronto's Forest Hill Collegiate Institute as a teen to take a spot on "Degrassi: The Next Generation," he recently earned his degree with flying colors.
"97% on my final exam," he tweeted on Wednesday. "88% in the course. One of the greatest feelings in my entire life. As of tonight I have graduated high school ... Thank you to my teacher Kim Janzen for spending the last 5 months working tirelessly with me!! OVO SOUND."
Drake joined "Degrassi" at age 15 and played paralyzed basketball player James "Jimmy" Brooks for seven seasons, appearing in 138 episodes through 2009, when Jimmy graduated from high school.
In a Complex interview last year, Drake said he took the "Degrassi" job to help out his family during a rough time. "My mother was very sick. We were poor, like broke," he said. "The only money I had coming in was off of Canadian TV, which isn't that much money when you break it down ... A season of Canadian television is under a teacher's salary, I'll tell you that much."
The 25-year-old Young Money star has been vocal in the past about not making the grade, rapping in "Crew Love" that, "I guess we'll never know what Harvard gets us/But seeing my family have it all/Took the place of that desire for diplomas on the wall."

Willow Starts A fashion Blog



Willow Smith
Singer, actress and pint-sized style connoisseur Willow Smith has launched a fashion blog on Tumblr. The social media savvy 11-year-old took to Twitter earlier this month to announce the exciting news, tweeting, “Follow my fashion blog http://coccin-elle.tumblr.com/,” and of course the masses ran.

The page is titled “i’art des chiffons,” which roughly means “the art of the rags,” and consists of mostly pictures of street style shots of models, fashion insiders and fellow style bloggers. Slim trousers, blousy tops, chunky leather accents and a nice selection of flat footwear appear to be her favorite trends and British “It” girl Alexa Chung her favorite muse.

This is not Willow’s first foray into Tumblr, though her second try is more focused and honorable. We're excited to see what’s next. Maybe an eponymous fashion label? It’s befitting to assume so.
