This may hurt a little, ‘the Dentist’ warns Portugal

April 27, 2010 By vani Leave a Comment

North Korea’s Pak Doo-ik inflicted so much pain on Italy at the 1966 World Cup he is still referred to as “the Dentist”.

Now aged 68, Pak has urged the current North Korean side to dish out the same kind of punishment to Portugal, who ended the North’s fairytale adventure in England 44 years ago.

Pak’s goal gave North Korea a 1-0 win over the Italians in 1966, eliminating them from the tournament at the group stage.

In the quarter-finals, the North stormed to a 3-0 lead against Portugal before a Eusebio-inspired fightback earned the Portuguese a 5-3 win.

“To this day I feel disappointed about the game against Portugal in 1966,” Yonhap News agency quoted Pak as telling a Brazilian newspaper. “I want payback for that loss 44 years ago.”

North Korea are in Group G with Portugal, Ivory Coast and Brazil for the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa, and Pak believes they can once again cause an upset.

“I believe North Korea and Brazil will succeed in advancing to the last 16 at the World Cup in South Africa,” he said.

“North Korean soccer has come a long way and I believe we will advance to the second round.”

Jordan, Peter Andre’s split upsets Sarah Harding

July 6, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

London, July 6 (ANI): Girls Aloud singer Sarah Harding has described Katie Price a.k.a Jordan and Peter Andre’s spilt as ‘sad’.

Harding, who is close friends with the couple, said she had initially hoped the couple would get back together, but now admits it is a hopeless case.

“It’s so sad. I really hoped it wasn’t permanent and wanted to get them back together. They have both been good friends to me in the past,” the Mirror quoted Harding as saying.

Harding has been close to the couple since 2004 when they helped her over a painful break-up. She was also a bridesmaid at their fairytale wedding in 2005.

“I had a really hard time when I split up with Mikey Green and I’ll never forget everything they did for me. Whenever I was feeling low they’d invite me around to stay in their house to have a break from it all,” she said.Pete would put the kettle on and Katie would order in some Chinese and we’d chat all night.

“They have both been good friends to me so I’m not going to be drawn into Team Katie or Team Pete thing.

“Whatever happened was between them. I’ve been in touch with them and said I’m here for both of them. But it doesn’t look like they will get back together now, which is a shame,” she added. (ANI)

Loss of faith in Cricket Australia system convinced me to quit: Martyn

July 2, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

Perth, July 2 (ANI): Former Australian middle-order batsman Damian Martyn has revealed that he quit because he had lost faith in the system promoted by Cricket Australia. He also said that he could accept the way the board treated the players.

“I’d lost faith in the system and the way they treated guys and that sort of stuff,” the Herald Sun quoted Martyn, as saying.

He said he had wanted to finish earlier in 2006 against South Africa, but the cajoling of teammates and pre-Ashes hype talked Martyn into going on to the 2006-07 series against England.

He realised by the end of the second Test in Adelaide that he should have been more assertive in telling the team it was time to go.

Martyn’s exit, which arrived via a solitary email to Cricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland, was one of the talking points of the summer, and he admitted he should have quit after making a century against the Proteas in Johannesburg in April 2006, following his recall to the Test team.

“Yeah (retirement) was on the cards but we had to fly out the next day, quickly,” Martyn said.

“It really came as a case that I was over it (international cricket), but it wasn’t made easy for me to try and retire, so it was a hard situation and I just kept trying to do the right thing and you play and by the end I’d had enough, wanted to get out and get on with the rest of my life.”

The politics of the Australian team are complex, and in explaining why he told no one of his final decision, Martyn said there was no easy way to extricate oneself from that environment.

“They might’ve liked a fairytale phone call that morning saying ‘I’m retiring’, but I knew I couldn’t do that in a sense because I’d get talked back into playing, so it was like, what do you do?” he said.

“Everybody in the group, if you walked around a team and told 15 blokes what you were thinking of doing, of retiring or doing this or that, you’d have 15 different answers.

“Some will be your mates who just don’t want your mates to go, some probably want you to go, you get a million different answers, so it’s something you just have to do yourself, stick by it and deal with it.”

Martyn also expressed empathy for Andrew Symonds, who he described as a virtual kindred spirit and a victim of the machinations of a corporatised game.

“I think Symo’s one of those guys, a bit like myself where we just wanted to get out and play cricket,” Martyn said in an interview for the Wisden Cricketer.

“We grew up as kids, for me I was playing AFL in the back yard and cricket in the front yard, and cricket took off, and next thing I know I’m playing for my country so it’s not like it’s a planned scenario, you’re thrust into this and some guys handle it differently to others.

“They (the authorities) have just got to be prepared to maybe look after guys a bit better. ” (ANI)

p
Melbourne, June 22 (ANI): ‘Amelie’ star Audrey Tautou is all set to enthral movie buffs with her portrayal of one of the most adored and iconic Frenchwoman- Coco Chanel-in a new biopic titled ‘Coco Avant Chanel’./pp
Chanel was a style pioneer who became an indirect crusader for feminism, leading the way for women about 80 years ago in what was then very much a man’s world./pp
Although it posed a daunting task, Tautou agreed to take on the role and trusted her imagination and lost herself in the character.hus, the result has come in the form of a fantastic French fairytale, which follows the early life of the girl who went on to become the precursor to the modern woman./pp
It was difficult because there was an obligation to run an interpretation that people might already know about Coco Chanel and we have to honour that image and personality, the Daily Telegraph quoted Tautou as saying./pp
She added: There are so many myths about her. That was the most difficult thing with this character. About this period of her life there was so little known – there are no witnesses to that time./pp
She further said: She was so secretive about who she was and I had to start depending on my own opinion creating something from the materials that I had. I had to use my imagination a lot. I had to trust that./pp
Directed by Anne Fontaine, ‘Coco Avant Chanel’ is a beautifully shot film telling the story of the illegitimate, abandoned Gabrielle Coco Chanel, who was taught to sew by nuns in an orphanage before singing for tips to drunken sailors in a run-down bar./pp
And finally she became the biggest names in the fashion industry./pp
Despite being asked by many directors and film houses to play the fashionista, Tautou agreed to Fontaine and Warner Bros only because she found something she liked. /pp
I found that Anne Fontaine had a good feeling and sensitivity for the personality of Coco Chanel, she said./pp
The actress is currently starring as the new face of the biggest-selling perfume of all time-Chanel No. 5./pp
‘Coco Avant Chanel’ opens on Thursday. (ANI)/p

April 14, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

London, April 14 (ANI): Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney is reportedly planning to make his unborn child’s nursery a shrine for his team’s Premier League rivals Everton – by painting it blue.

The father-to-be, who had been an Everton fan during his childhood and played for them until 2004, is allegedly making plans to cover the walls of his first child’s nursery with the rival club’s blue colour.

The acclaimed striker had apparently told his pals to expect royal blue carpets, snaps of the Goodison Park stands on the wallpaper and even the Everton club crest in the baby’s room.

“Wayne has been walking on cloud nine ever since the news – he and Coleen can’t wait,” the Sun quoted a club source as saying.

“The lads are all made up for him but Wazza insists the baby will follow Everton, no matter what,” the source added.

But if he turned out to be a father of a girl, then the 23-year-old may have to step back for his wife Coleen to decide the theme, as per sources.

The source added: “Coleen will definitely be having the last say though. If it’s a girl she will insist on a fairytale castle for her Little Princess.” (ANI)

Virginity auctioning Romanian teen insists her virginity is no ‘fairytale’

March 29, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

London, Mar 27 (ANI): Alina Percea, the Romanian teen who is auctioning her virginity online for 50,000 pounds, has hit back at her former teacher’s claims that she’s not a virgin.

Alina was devastated when former teacher Alexandru Dumitrescu claimed: “Her virginity is a fairytale. She just wants to be famous.”

Speaking for the first time since her decision, the 18-year-old Percea insisted that she’s innocent.

“I’ve never been with a man. I am a virgin and I’ve got a medical certificate to prove it. I’ve never been with a man at all. I had one boyfriend when I was 17, but we kissed and held hands and that was it,” The Sun quoted her, as saying.

She said: “I don’t know why anyone would say such a horrible thing about me. I’ve always got on with my teachers, and he never had a problem with me before. How would he know anything like that about me?”

Alina also revealed that gorgeous virgin Natalie Dylan, who has attracted bids of 2.5million pounds to sleep with her, was her inspiration.

American Dylan, 22, from San Diego is auctioning her virginity through porn king Hugh Hefner’s brothel, The Bunny Ranch.

Speaking about her decision to do the same, Alina said: “I thought it was an amazing idea, and wanted to do the same thing. I thought: ‘I’m a virgin, and I can’t find work any other way, so here is a way for me to make a lot of money and to help my family’.

Alina has so far attracted bids of only 5,000 pounds. (ANI)

‘Saddened’ Prime Minister Gordon Brown pays tribute to Jade Goody

March 23, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

London, March 23 (ANI): British Prime Minister Gordon Brown has paid tribute to Jade Goody, saying her death had left him “saddened”.

The leader of the Labour Party paid his respects to the 27-year-old, who slipped away peacefully on March 22 in her sleep, while mum Jackiey Budden and hubby Jack Tweed held on to her hands.

The Brit reality star, who was diagnosed with cervical cancer last August, had planned her last weeks carefully before losing her battle with the disease on Mother’s Day.

The mum-of-two had tied the knot with Jack in a fairytale ceremony on February 22, and had herself and her sons, Bobby, 5 and Freddie, 4 baptised on March 7 in the chapel of London’s Royal Marsden Hospital.

Jade even secured her kids’ future through magazine and TV deals to provide for her lads after her death.

The brave star was granted her last wish to spend her finals days at her Essex home, surrounded by her family.

And it was her spirit and determination that the Prime Minister hailed in his tribute.

“I was deeply saddened to hear the news of Jade Goody’s death,” the Sun quoted him as saying.

“She was a courageous woman both in life and death and the whole country have admired her determination to provide a bright future for her children.

“She will be remembered fondly by all who knew her and her family can be extremely proud of the work she has done to raise awareness of cervical cancer which will benefit thousands of women across the UK.

“Every death from cancer is a tragedy and my thoughts go out to her two sons, husband and family at this time,” he added. (ANI)

March 15, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

London, March 15 (ANI): Cancer-stricken Jade Goody has just few hours to live now, according to her pals.

The British reality TV star has been in tremendous pain after cervical cancer spread to her entire body.

“It IS now a matter of hours, she has deteriorated dramatically overnight. Sadly she is very close to the end,” News of the World quoted a source as saying.

The 27-year-old was granted her last wish after doctors allowed her to go home so that she could spend her final days with her beloved sons, Bobby, five, and Freddie, four.

Goody had recently returned from London’s Royal Marsden Hospital to her house in Upshire, Essex, where she suffered excruciating pain that led officials to lift the curfew on her jailbird hubby Jack Tweed so that he could spend time with his terminally ill wife.

Tweed said: “When I got the call I was absolutely terrified. The thought that our fairytale could be over already filled me with dread and sadness.”

And now, family and close friends have come together to be with Goody, who is “terrified of falling asleep because she’s afraid she’ll never wake up”.

Her rep Max Clifford confirmed: “She has deteriorated. She is very weak. The answer is, who knows? We are on the edge of a precipice.” (ANI)

Bride-to-be Jade Goody leaves hospital

February 19, 2009 By admin Leave a Comment

London, February 19 (ANI): Cancer-stricken Jade Goody left the hospital steps behind to go home and make arrangements for her fairytale wedding.

The 27-year-old, bent on defying medics by walking down the aisle on February 22 after being given eight weeks to live, left London’s Royal Marsden Hospital in a wheelchair while being in visible pain.

The ‘Big Brother’ celebrity, who has been receiving treatment for cervical cancer, apparently had a morphine administrator hanging out of her mouth as she was helped by porters into an ambulance.

Jade refused the hospital chapel as the wedding venue and returned to her Upshire residence to be with her sons Bobby, five, Freddie, four, and her partner of three years Jack Tweed.

“I am going to die in this hospital, so I don’t want to get married here,” the Sun quoted her as saying.

“But wherever we tie the knot, I’m determined to walk down that aisle.

“I’m so looking forward to being a bride. And I want to walk toward my groom, just like any other young woman would on what is meant to be the best day of their lives,” she added. (ANI)
