Germany’s next victim will be Serbia
Or it might turn out to be the other way around, however since Serbia didn’t win against Ghana, there’s no real chance of them besting Germany’s 4-0 with Australia. The German team however, retains a good amount of quiet confidence about them, as one of their strikers, Thomas Muller, says: “We are not the fantastic team which everyone makes us out to be, but we have every reason to look forward to the Serbia game with quiet confidence. It will be a different type of game as they desperately need a win. We won’t win every game 4-0, but we have nothing to fear.” They certainly have a good deal to feel confident about… maybe the Serbians might manage to play that card to their advantage.
No commentsAlgeria and Slovenia’s battle
Here are some of the more… inconspicuous teams which tend to provide the most interesting matches. Slovenian striker Zlatko Dedic had this to say about the upcoming confrontation: “We are all concentrating on the work in hand, and to be as prepared as possible for the following matches, so we play even better than we did against Russia. Because I think that we are able to play even better, and, as I said before, that there is more to come from us.” Well, he seems fairly optimistic and even though the game wasn’t as tight as many might have wished, the Slovenians did indeed win it from the Algerians in the end due to a goalkeeping error as opposed to a great attack. Well, Zlatko Dedic will probably have his own chance at glory some other time.
No commentsEx-basketball star Dennis Rodman allegedly stuck his hand up a woman’s skirt at a nightclub
Ex-basketball star Dennis Rodman allegedly stuck his hand up a woman’s skirt at a trendy Miami Beach nightclub.
It is claimed the notorious ladies’ man leant over and whispered something into the woman’s ear before reaching under her clothes and touching her inappropriately.
Police say the alleged victim – identified in an incident report as Jessica Cox – was left in tears and immediately told security guards.
It happened during a glittering fashion show after-party at the swanky LIV nightclub, at the Fontainebleau Hotel, in the early hours of Thursday.
Earlier that evening, the heavily tattooed 6ft 8ins NBA bad boy had sported bizarre silver and pink face paint and hit the catwalk during the charity fashion show.
He’d wowed crowds in an elaborate pink suit featuring a huge chiffon neck bow and furry cuffs.
Rodman, 48, is a well-known fixture on Miami’s party circuit and is often spotted puffing away on huge cigars while surrounded by a bevvy of beauties.
Through his rep, he has denied the allegation, claiming the woman is merely “trying to get money out of him”.
He has not been arrested but police have confirmed the investigation is ongoing.

No commentsSerena and Venus Williams pump money into NFL
Tennis superstars Serena and Venus Williams have pumped some of their hard-earned millions into the NFL.
The Florida-based sisters now own a joint stake in the Miami Dolphins football team, alongside fellow celebrities Jennifer Lopez and Gloria Estefan.
They have become the first ever female African-Americans to have signed such a deal with an NFL franchise. It is not known how much money they’ve ploughed into the team.
“I am so excited to be part of such a renowned organisation,” said 2009 Wimbledon champion Serena.
“We’re really honored, Venus and I in tennis have tried to do so much for the sport. We’re really excited to even have this opportunity.”
Venus and Serena live in Palm Beach Gardens, about an hour’s drive from the Dolphins’ stadium.
Venus added: “To have this opportunity is really where our heart is. We’re South Florida girls. When we get off the road, this is where we come home to. When we come home to Dolphins games, it’s going to be exciting.”
No commentsDavid Beckham in Galaxy swine flu scare

David Beckham has been caught up in a swine flu scare after his LA Galaxy team-mate Landon Donovan and two club staff were struck down by the virus.
Becks and the whole Galaxy squad are being monitored, after Donovan fell ill and tested positive for the flu virus.
Donovan has said he started feeling unwell after the Galaxy’s away game at New England Revolution last Sunday, where Beckham was part of the squad.
Galaxy officials believe Donovan may have contracted the virus from a club administrator and a chiropractor, who also tested positive.
Beckham returned to LA on Thursday night after joining the England team for their friendly in Holland.
Galaxy general manager Bruce Arena said: “My suspicions are that since we’ve had a couple of people within the Galaxy office who have had the flu, that that’s where he [Donovan] got it.”
Arena tried to play down fears of the virus spreading, adding: “My understanding is that this is a mild strain of a flu… Landon is not infectious. He has a slight strain of the flu and he’s at the tail-end of it.
“There’s no need for alarm.”
Donovan is unlikely to play as Beckham and Galaxy host the Seattle Sounders tomorrow.
No commentsCarrie Underwood and Hilary Duff Love Hockey

Hilary Duff and Carrie Underwood cheer on their men at the game between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Ottawa Senators this past Wednesday at the Scotiabank Place in Ottawa, Canada. Hilary was there to support her Senators boyfriend Mike Comrie and Carrie was there for her own Senators boyfriend Mike Fisher. The two blondes may have been good luck charms for their guys as their team won over the Lightning, 3-2 in overtime. Carrie was even seen jumping up and down after her Mike scored a goal. These ladies sure love their hockey and they sure love their respective Mikes.
Jordin Sparks Loves the LA Dodgers

American Idol champion Jordin Sparks belted out the national anthem at the first game of the LA Dodgers’ new spring training stadium in Phoenix, Arizona last Sunday afternoon. The 19-year old singer donned a Dodgers baseball cap at Camelback Ranch as they hosted the Chicago White Sox in a 3-2 loss. The Dodgers are looking to improve on their successful season from last year, after capturing the NL West Crown and playing in the NL League Championship Series. I wonder when Jordin’s going to improve on her career standing with a new record. I also wonder if she’s going to make an appearance on American Idol.
Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato Watch Hockey

Who knew that Taylor Swift and Demi Lovato were friends? And who knew that either teenager happened to be a hockey fan? The country singing sweetheart and the young actress was spotted last Monday at the LA Kings vs Tampa Bay Lightning game in Los Angeles. I wonder if they talked about the Jonas Brothers. We all know how Taylor is still bitter over Joe and that Demi acted with them. Not to mention that Demi’s best friend Selena Gomez happens to be dating Nick. There’s no way that no gossiping occurred during their little get together. They wouldn’t be teenagers otherwise.
No commentsEva Longoria Gets Short
I guess Eva Longoria is a big Rhianna fan because she wants to be her apparently. She showed up recently with a new short bob do.
All I can say, is no, no, no. She looks so much older, if you ask me. Who is she really trying to be? Katie Holmes? Maybe this is part of a secret plot to steal Tom Cruise away. Maybe Tony Parker wants to be Tom Cruise?
I don’t know what’s going on, but this was one bad decision.
