Lil Wayne Trashed Justin Bieber's Manager in Lil Twist's Defense

Lil Wayne had a message for Justin Bieber's manager Scooter Braun and it's full of expletives. Wayne took a jab at Scooter for bad mouthing his YMCMB artist Lil Twist who had built a reputation for being a bad influence on Bieber.

Twist and Bieber used to be friends before they cut ties in 2013 following a series of run-ins with the law. Twist was often portrayed as a bad influence on Bieber in media and Wayne pointed out who the culprit was.

"I heard this b***ha** ni**a Scooter talkin' s**t about my little brother," Weezy said in a video shot by DJ Scoob Doo and debuted on Bread Over Bed on Monday, May 26. "Ni**a, this my motherf***in' brother, anything you got to say, when you see me say it to my motherf***in' face," Weezy added.

He continued talking with his hand wrapped around Twist's shoulder, "And if you do happen to say it to my motherf***in' face, I ain't gonna make you eat them words ni**a, I'ma put them b***hes on your tombstone." The rapper signed off with, "F**k you Scooter!"

Back in November, Twist tried to clear his name by saying Scooter planted stories that made him look bad in order to retain Bieber's "squeaky clean image." Bieber and Scooter remained good friends with the pop singer posting an Instagram photo of them hugging and captioning it, "All love."

#BRINGBACKOURGIRLS- We know where Chibok girls are, but won't use force to rescue them - Military

Nigeria's Chief of Defense Staff Air Marshall Alex Badeh yesterday said that the Nigeria military has been able to locate the more than 200 abducted Chibok girls on April 14th but will not use force to rescue them because that could put the girls in great danger as the insurgents could kill them.

He revealed this yesterday while addressing a group of protesters, the Citizens Initiative for Security Awareness, outside the Defence Headquarters in Abuja. He said the military knows what they are doing and should be allowed to continue their work

"We want our girls back. The military can do it, but where they are held, can we go with force? The good news for the girls is that we know where they are but we can't tell you. Just leave us alone. We are working. We will bring the girls back" He said

Kanye West Debuts New Song 'God Level' in Adidas World Cup Ad

As Kanye West is getting ready to marry his baby mama Kim Kardashian in Florence, his new song "God Level" is unleashed. The track is featured in a new Adidas commercial for "The Dream: All In or Nothing" campaign ahead of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Footage of soccer players like Dani Alves, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Luis Suarez, Xavi, Jordi Alba, Mesut Ozil, Robin van Persie, and David Villa showing off their skills is set against rousing drum beats which leads to Kanye spitting his verse.

"You see sharks in the water/ You don't see murder like this this often," the father of one raps. "Provide a new coffin/ You don't see murder like this this often."

While in Italy, Kanye is also working on his new album. It's unclear if "God Level" will be in the album. The song is co-produced by 88-Keys, Hudson Mohawke, Mike Dean, Noah Goldstein, and Kanye. Yeezys for Adidas, the rapper's first footwear collection with the brand, is expected to arrive in June.

Carlo Ancelotti: Real needed to trust in attack

As the minutes slipped by and Real entered extra time, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti remained confident in the gameplan that brought his side to the Champions League final.

After falling behind in the first half, Ancelotti told his players to trust in the potent attack that brought them 104 goals in La Liga and another 37 in Europe this season.

The strategy paid off nearly three minutes into stoppage time as Sergio Ramos scored the equaliser, and Real found three goals in extra time to win the Champions League final 4-1.

"At halftime I said we had to play quicker and trust more in our offensive capabilities," Ancelotti said. "I told the players the same after 90 minutes, to keep attacking, because we really created problems for them.

"What was most difficult was to get the equaliser. We didn't have any space, Atletico defended very well, but we tried every way possible, right to the end -- we managed to do it and then the game changed completely. The goal we scored gave us a lot of strength and after that perhaps we wanted the victory more."

Ancelotti refused to admit that his side were somewhat fortunate to break through the stalwart Atletico defence from a corner.

"I am lucky, but not for this game," Ancelotti said. "You can say I'm a lucky man in the end, or you can say that we tried to do everything until the last second of the game. This is football -- sometimes you have bad luck, sometimes good luck.

The Italian, who won his third Champions League as a manager after two with AC Milan, said winning La Decima for Real Madrid fills a hole in the club's trophy room.

"On my first day, when I went to the Santiago Bernabeu trophy room, I said to the president that there was one cup missing and that we should try to get it this season," he said. "We've managed to do that. I've felt a lot of trust in me from the whole of the club, and we've had the composure to win games.

"We've won the most important competition in the world. The season has been very long and after the semifinal with Bayern, perhaps our results haven't been as good, but I want to congratulate the players because they've been fantastic all year."

Kim Kardashian and Kanye Fly to Ireland for Honeymoon After Wedding

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West reportedly have arrived in Ireland for their honeymoon. According to The Irish Times, the newlyweds arrived in the country on Sunday, May 25 at 3 P.M. local time via a private jet. They were picked up by a Mercedes when they arrived at Cork Airport.

The couple reportedly will be in Ireland for five days. They are believed to stay at Castlemartyr Resort Hotel. A staff member at the luxury resort, however, declined to comment when asked if Kardashian and West were staying there, telling the news outlet, "Unfortunately I can't comment on that, sir."

The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star and her rapper beau got married on Saturday at the historic Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy. In addition to family members, they were joined by some famous names such as John Legend, Chrissy Teigen, Tyga, Big Sean and Andrea Bocelli at the festivities.

The bride's brother Rob Kardashian, however, skipped the nuptials. He left Florence prior to the event following an alleged family clash, TMZ reports. A source claimed that Rob felt insecure and depressed because of his weight and chose to fly back home to avoid being photographed in wedding pictures despite his family's encouragement.

Wiz Khalifa Tweets Jail Selfie After Arrested for Weed at Airport

Wiz Khalifa landed in jail, but he managed to take a selfie from the slammer. The rapper, whose real name is Cameron Jibril Thomaz, posted a solemn "jail selfie" after he was arrested on early Sunday morning, May 25 at a Texas airport.

TSA officials found a "green leafy substance" in his luggage at the checkpoint when he was getting ready to fly from El Paso to Dallas. The husband of Amber Rose was turned over to local police who later took him into custody for possession of marijuana.

"I wanna drop '28 Grams' but they got me locced up. Soon as I get out, the tapes comin out. Fucc that," the father of one tweeted, referring to his upcoming mixtape. He added, "They're tryna figure out how many grams I had. How ironic."

Beyonce Skips Kim And Kanye Wedding, Sends Congrats On Instagram

Although we fully expected Jay would make the best bachelor party host of all time as his homey Kanye prepared to jump the broom, it seems our fantasy of flowing D’usse, Cuban cigars and a GIANT castle was just that. Because As ‘Kanye and his bride Kim were exchanging vows in Italy, Mr. and Mrs. Carter appear to have been Stateside — getting ready for a Memorial Day weekend of grown-folks’ music and barbecue.
At least that’s what Beyonce‘s busy online activity on Saturday (May 24) leads us to believe. The “XO” singer debuted a summer look of golden-hued, waist-grazing micro-braids, puckering up to the camera and dressed in a black tank that seemed not at all like wedding attire. Bey went on to post a playlist to her tumblr that showed she was gearing up to grill.

But our suspicions that the Carters had — missed the “wedding of the year” were basically confirmed when Bey sent her Instragram congrats to the newlyweds, posting a photo from the couple’s April 2014 Vogue shoot. We presume that the wishes for a “lifetime of unconditional love” were implicitly signed with love from both the Carters.

Winning Champions League a 'dream' win- Gareth Bale

Gareth Bale admits winning the Champions League with Real Madrid will live with him forever as his goal helped down Atletico Madrid 4-1 in the final.
After Sergio Ramos had finally broken Atletico's resistance to cancel out Diego Godin's first-half effort with a 93rd-minute equaliser, Bale gave Real the lead with a close-range header in extra time.
Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo then put the gloss on Real's 10th European Cup win with late goals.
"It is what every footballer dreams of and it doesn't come bigger in club football," Bale is quoted by the BBC.
"The celebration of the crowd meant everything to me, but the most important thing is we worked hard as a team and won the trophy and the 10th title for the club."
Bale joined Real in a world record 86 million-pound move from Tottenham last summer, but said his price tag doesn't matter.
"I would have come here for a penny if it meant I could win the big titles," Bale added.
It could have all been different for Bale and Real, after he spurned three good chances to score before heading in his side's vital second goal at the Estadio da Luz.
"I have learned from past experiences to keep going, forget the chances you have missed and to keep persevering and a chance will come," he said.

"It was a close game, especially in normal time. We have played Atletico Madrid four times this season and every game has been close.
"They make it very difficult when they get a goal ahead and it's hard to break them down."

Diego Simeone is a 'god'- Tiago

Atletico Madrid midfielder Tiago has described manager Diego Simeone as a "god" to the players, and the main reason why they are in the Champions League final.
Simeone's rise as a coach has undeniably been the main story in Atletico Madrid's path to Lisbon and, whatever can be said about him being a "god", the Argentine has performed something close to a football economic miracle by winning the Spanish league and taking the club so far.
"I think for us, for all the club, he's like a God," Tiago said. "He arrived to the club and changed everything. What he says comes true.
"If he asks him to jump from a bridge, we jump. I think he knows a lot of football. We as a group follow him, and we're very proud to have him as a coach."
All of the players put up for Atletico's pre-match press conference, meanwhile -- Gabi, Raul Garcia and Tiago -- expressed pride at the club's season, and called it their biggest ever game.

"This is the most important game in the history of the club, with all the responsibility that brings," Gabi said.
Atletico may have to play it without two of their key players, as both Arda Turan and Diego Costa are still struggling with injury.
Simeone, however, refused to rule either out. Costa did light sprints on Friday with Marca saying that Costa passed the test.
"We will look at Diego and Arda in training today, and see how they feel. We will talk with them tonight and see what the team needs.
"If Arda or Costa do not play, there are two lads who we know will play. We will do what we worked on during the week."
Atletico meanwhile expressed a sense of calm and focus after winning the league.
"We are very confident because we have a very strong identity. This team has shown, throughout the whole season, that we know what to do in every game. I don't think that will change tomorrow. We'll be the same Atletico, very strong. We have a great team opposing us, but this match will be the same as any other."
Simeone meanwhile expressed no fear about Real Madrid.
"They could play 4-3-3 or 4-4-2, or maybe Isco behind [Gareth] Bale and [Cristiano] Ronaldo. We've worked on what we might face, with different options.
"The players celebrated winning Liga after enormous effort. Now they've worked same as ever, focus on next game. There is no other path for tomorrow.
"We know our strengths and our weaknesses. We're compact, structured, interpret moments of game very well. That has brought us here."

Ugandan President 'Yoweri Museveni' mocks Nigeria President 'Jonathan' for accepting international assistance

While speaking at a campaign rally recently, Uganda’s President 'Yoweri Museveni' mocked Nigeria's President 'Jonathan' for accepting foreign assistance to help fight Boko Haram. The former guerrila fighter said he'd rather commit suicide than ask the international community to protect his people against terrorists

“I have never called the United Nations to guard us. Me, Yoweri Museveni to say that I have failed to protect my people and I call on the UN: I would rather hang myself. We prioritized national security by developing a strong Army, otherwise our Uganda would be like DRC, South Sudan, Somalia or Nigeria where militias have disappeared with school children.

“It would be a vote of no confidence in our country and citizens if we cannot guarantee our security. What kind of persons would we be?” He said

Eden Hazard could follow David Luiz to PSG

Laurent Blanc wants Chelsea’s player of the year Eden Hazard to join David Luiz as part of Paris Saint- Germain’s plans to conquer Europe.

The PSG coach went public on his desire to sign Hazard as his club  prepared to announce the £50million signing of Chelsea’s disaffected  Brazil international central defender, Luiz.

Chelsea also have a decision to make on Hazard (right) after Blanc admitted that he wanted to sign the winger.

The Paris St-Germain manager said: ‘Why do I love Eden Hazard? Because he is a player who eliminates.

‘We can discuss all of the systems, or a player’s  individual or collective qualities.

‘But a player who can eliminate three, four players at any time in a game is something else.

‘We do not know what to expect with these players. They destabilise the opponent.

‘We know we want plan A. But of course there is a plan B if he doesn’t come. There is also a plan C.’

With such seemingly unlimited funding, Blanc is under pressure to win the Champions League for the first time in the club’s history next season after  dominating the French league again last campaign.

PSG’s medical team flew  overnight to Brazil’s World Cup training camp where Luiz passed a medical assessment to join the Ligue 1 champions.

The £50m fee was agreed  with Chelsea and generous personal terms were successfully negotiated with the player.

The sale of Luiz, which was revealed by Sportsmail in later editions  yesterday, is a massive gamble by Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho as he attempts to build a team that can wrestle the Barclays Premier League title from Manchester City next season.

Luiz is Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich’s favourite player and the decision to sell represents a fascinating move by Mourinho after he convinced the board they must cash in.

PSG, owned by the Qatar Investment Authority, certainly have the finances to conclude a shock move for Hazard too, and Blanc is prepared to pay another £50million to lure the Belgium international away from Stamford Bridge.

But UEFA’s financial fair play  regulations could prove a key stumbling block towards  a potential move for the  23-year-old, particularly given they have already splashed out £50m in the move for Luiz.

Chelsea have released veteran striker Samuel Eto’o, but are still hopeful of persuading  England midfielder Frank  Lampard to stay at the club.

Mourinho will be planning to use the Luiz cash to bring a star striker to the club with Atletico Madrid’s Diego Costa his main target.

Former United Manager 'David Moyes' investigated over bar assault

Police are investigating an allegation that former Manchester United manager David Moyes assaulted a man at a wine bar.
Officers were called to the upmarket Emporium bar in the rural market town of Clitheroe, Lancashire, on
Wednesday night following a report that Moyes was involved in an altercation with a 23-year-old local man.
It is reported that Moyes, 51, had been socialising with his friend, Blackburn managing director Derek Shaw, a local businessman in the Ribble Valley who was on the board at Preston when the Scotsman was in charge at Deepdale.
Police said the 23-year-old man did not require hospital treatment following the incident at about 10 p.m.
A spokesman said: "Inquiries are ongoing and we are speaking to a number of people to try to establish the circumstances. There are a number of differing accounts which we need to work through to try to establish exactly what has happened. No one has been arrested at this stage."
Police are expected to view any available CCTV footage to try to shed further light on the incident.
A spokesman for the Emporium said: "There was an incident outside the building. However, it did not affect any of our customers or staff and has been dealt with by the police."
The fashionable town centre bar in Moor Lane bills itself as "half coffee shop, wine bar and brasserie; half interior design superstore," which offers "a unique, intoxicating lifestyle experience."
Moyes was dismissed by Manchester United last month following a mediocre season after he replaced the retiring Sir Alex Ferguson.
On Thursday, he was among several names linked with the vacant Celtic managerial position after Neil Lennon stepped down as boss of the Scottish champions. He has formerly managed Everton and Preston, and played as a centre-half for a number of clubs including Celtic.

The World's Most Humble President 'Mujica' Just Opened His House to 100 Syrian Refugee Children

The news: One hundred children orphaned by the Syrian civil war could find a home in Uruguayan President José "Pepe" Mujica's summer retreat, "a mansion and riverfront estate surrounded by rolling pastures," according to Yahoo News. That would be a welcome sight for any of the hundreds of thousands of refugees displaced by Syria's political turmoil.
The children could arrive as early as September, coming from refugee camps in the Middle East. The UN High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) does not relocate orphans without a family member; each child would arrive with at least one relative — like an uncle, cousin or sibling. The exact number of children expected at Mujica's summer residence is still being worked out, particularly since the Uruguayan government will be responsible for all of the expenses.
More than 2 million Syrians have fled the country since the conflict began in 2011. Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon have taken in the majority. More than 1 million Syrians have relocated to Lebanon, while 600,000 are in Jordan and 700,000 are in Turkey. Germany and Brazil have granted immigration visas to Syrian refugees, 10,000 from the former and 2,000 from the latter.
Notice who's not in the mix? U.S. President Obama's administration has been pretty listless in aiding Syrian refugees. Out of the estimated 2.3 million Syrians displaced, the U.S. only admitted 31 into the country in 2013. That number seems even worse when you take into account the fact that 135,000 Syrians have applied for asylum by January of this year. Most applications were rejected because of strict immigration laws instituted to prevent terrorists from entering the country.
In February 2014, the Obama administration announced that it would ease up some of the immigration restrictions. According to a statement signed by Secretary of State John Kerry and Jeh Johnson, secretary of homeland security, the U.S. will grant exemptions to Syrian refugees "on a case-by-case basis to the 'material support' bar in U.S. immigration law," reported Reuters.
Mujica keeps one-upping President Obama. This is not the first instance where Uruguay's president has taken the lead. Mujica turned his leftist guerrilla past into game-changing national leadership through several strategic political moves and by capitalizing on an everyman brand. 

Mujica is known as the sandal-wearing, VW Beetle-driving, farm-living "poorest president in the world." He donates most of his $12,000 monthly salary to charity and lives in a one-bedroom home, even though a recent report indicates his assets to be well into the six-figure range.
Coolness factor aside, Mujica broke ground by making Uruguay the first country to legalize the production, distribution and consumption of marijuana. Notably, he also legalized gay marriage and took in six detainees from Guantanamo Bay, which the U.S. still hasn't dismantled after promising to do so six years ago.
Under Mujica's presidency, Uruguay is aggressively fighting a $2 billion lawsuit filed by Phillip Morris, since the country's strict anti-smoking laws force the company to place graphic warnings on 80% of all cigarette packs. And Uruguay now has the most liberal laws on abortion in all of Latin America.
Are you taking notes, Mr. President? Lucia Topolansky, Mujica's wife, said that the move to take in the Syrian orphans is to "motivate all the countries of the world to take responsibility for this catastrophe."
Originally, Uruguay's president planned to consult with the Uruguayan people about admitting the refugees into the country. But Mujica proceeded without doing so and without congressional oversight.

Tupac Shakur's Last Words Were 'F**k You' says Former Police Officer

Eighteen years after Tupac Shakur was fatally shot in Las Vegas, a former police officer who first responded to the scene opened up about the rap superstar's last words before he lost consciousness. Chris Carroll, who was with the Vegas Metropolitan Police Department's bike patrol unit, shared the story to Las Vegas weekly newspaper Vegas Seven on Wednesday, May 21.

Carroll, who served for 23 years before retiring in December 2010, said that he found Shakur bleeding in a car while the rapper's friend Marion "Suge" Knight, who was also injured, kept calling out his name. Back then, Carroll kept asking Shakur the name of the shooter when he was still conscious.

"He went from fighting to 'I can't do it.' And when he made that transition, he looked at me, and he's looking right in my eyes. And that's when I looked at him and said one more time, 'Who shot you?' " Carroll recalled.

"He looked at me and he took a breath to get the words out, and he opened his mouth, and I thought I was actually going to get some cooperation. And then the words came out: 'F**k you. After that, he started gurgling and slipping out of consciousness. At that point, an ambulance showed up, and he went into unconsciousness," Carroll shared.

Shakur never gained consciousness following the September 7, 1996 shooting. He passed away on September 13 at the age of 25.

Son of the Sentenced Sudanese Pregnant woman forced to live with her in prison

The young son of the pregnant 27 year old woman, Meriam Yahia Ibrahim Ishag (pictured above), who was sentenced to death in Sudan last week for Apostasy (her crime was marrying a Christian man - read here) is forced to live in jail with his mom. Meriam who is reportedly shackled & bleeding in her prison cell, is expected to give birth to her second child on or before June 1st, Hollywood Life reports.

We thought that Meriam’s story could not get any worse, but it has. It turns out that while a very pregnant Meriam awaits her death sentence in prison, her precious little boy has been forced to live inside her prison cell with her. Meriam will also have to care for her unborn baby in that cell once it is born.

The UN is intervening and trying to save an 8 month pregnant woman from the death penalty in Sudan who married a Christian man….

Reports claim that the Sudanese government will not allow Martin’s father to care for him while Meriam is in prison solely because he is both a Christian and an American citizen.

Meriam is currently in prison because she refused to renounce her Christianity in front of a Sudanese court. Because she was born in Sudan and is therefore automatically considered a Muslim by their government, they have condemned her for committing apostasy.

Since Sudan sees her only as a Muslim, they refuse to acknowledge her marriage to a Christian man. Therefore, the court was also able to charge Meriam with adultery.

Meriam has been sentenced to 100 lashes for adultery, but will ultimately be killed when she is hanged for committing apostasy. The court has allowed her time to birth and nurse her baby before she will be killed.

Meriam’s husband has also been to visit her in prison when allowed and the description of what he found is almost unbelievable.

As soon as he heard that his wife was in prison and facing death, Daniel hopped a plane from his New Hampshire home and flew back to his homeland of Sudan.

After his visit, Daniel claimed that his wife was shackled to the floor inside her cell, and that the shackles were causing her ankles to bleed.

Daniel also mentioned that Meriam’s legs are swollen, and he fears she is not receiving the proper medical treatment she needs.

If this is the case, when Meriam goes into labor with her unborn baby, it could prove to be fatal.

Courtois not sure about his Chelsea return

Chelsea's on-loan goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has claimed it 'would not be healthy' for him to be in the same squad as the club's first-choice keeper Peter Cech next season.

Long-standing Chelsea No.1 Cech would appear to be blocking the first-team path for Courtois, who will line-up for Ateltico Madrid in this weekend's Champions League final against Real Madrid in Lisbon. This will probably be the last game of the Belgain's three-year loan spell with the Spanish club.

Yet Courtois seemed less than convinced that a return to parent club Chelsea would be a step forward in his career, as he spoke to the BBC at Atletico's pre-Champions League final media day.

"The two of us want to play everything," stated Courtois, who will line-up for Belgium at this summer's World Cup finals. "Nobody will be happy to play in only the League Cup or FA Cup. Things are unclear at the moment.

"I have the biggest respect for Petr Cech. I think he was named as the best goalkeeper of the Premier League, so he is still at a great level. He is one of the best goalkeepers in the world so I think putting him and me in the same team is not the healthiest thing in the world.

"With the World Cup coming, I wanted this resolved quickly as I have to concentrate on that, but that was not possible. We will see in the next week if we can sit together with Chelsea to find something for next year, find out what they want, what my desire is. We will see."

Courtois admitted he 'felt strange' to be a part of the Atletico side that knocked Chelsea out of this season's Champions League at the semi-final stage, but he hopes he handled the second leg of the tie at Stamford Bridge in a professional manner.

"It was strange and weird knocking out Chelsea," said Courtois. "Normally when you win a semi-final you celebrate really hard, but I didn't do it because Chelsea bought me and gave me the opportunity to play for Atletico for three years.

"I think I showed respect to the Chelsea players and supporters and they to me. It was a nice feeling and hopefully I can give them those things back in the future."

Courtois is looking forward to Saturday's Champions League decider with relish, as he suggested the newly crowned Spanish league champions will look to continue with their ploy of counter-attacking football against local rivals Real Madrid.

"We know these are top players and it will not be easy," he added. "I think we will play the same game as we always do. There are some teams that play more defensive against us and we found it more difficult to make the game.

"Against Real Madrid they will have to come more. We will have to defend well and play more on the counter-attack."
