As Usual, Kris Jenner Steals The Spotlight From Her Daughter Khloe Kardashian

Rob Kardashian is visiting! He’s so excited to be in Dallas because everything is bigger, specifically hair and boobs. What a gentleman.
Just like the episode when Kim visited, Khloe talks about how lonely she is and how seeing a relative will keep her busy while Lamar is at practice. Being a basketball wife seems lonely, even when you’re a Kardashian. ESPECIALLY when Rob is spending more time with Lamar. He tried to touch Lamar’s “package” in the beginning of the episode, and he admitted to having wet dreams about Lamar. La-Rob is such a cute couple.

It seems that the whole point of Rob’s visit is for Khloe and Lamar to convince him to move in with them again. However, Rob is 25 and feels like he wants to earn everything in his life. That’s exactly what comes to mind when I think of the Kardashians: hard-working people who earn every dollar they have.
Oh god, we’ve been tricked. This isn’t just a Rob episode. Kris Jenner comes to visit too because she wants to get in tight with Mark Cuban, who is the owner of the Mavericks. TRICKED AGAIN, Kris takes Khloe on a surprise car ride and she ends up at the airport where KIM AND KOURTNEY ARE GETTING OFF A PLANE. They ALL go to a basketball game, and they are in a fabulous box, which Khloe doesn’t realize is Mark Cuban’s.

When Khloe finds out, she’s furious that her mom got VIP treatment from the Mavericks. I’m furious Kris is even in this episode at all.
On the way to a family dinner, all the women ride and one car, and Lamar and Rob are in another. Lamar tries again to convince Rob to move to Dallas, and it seems like Rob is beginning to consider it. However, after dinner everyone goes back to L.A., including Rob. He just wants to be independent, Khloe!
FINAL TRICK! Rob shows up at Khloe and Lamar’s door because he wants to stay to make Khloe and Lamar happy. Stay dependent, Rob!

Nicki Minaj Has 'Bigger Balls' Than Boys

Nicki Minaj believes she has ''bigger balls'' than boys do and has revealed she will not rap about ''female genitalia.''
Nicki Minaj thinks she has ''bigger balls'' than boys do.
The 'Starships' singer - who is renowned for her raunchy lyrics about sex - claims she will no longer refer to female genitalia in her songs because she can use alternative words, but will continue to swear because male rappers such as Eminem do.
She said: ''Am I determined to out-curse the boys? Yes. Definitely. That's why I say stuff like, 'D**k in your face', because I don't even wanna refer to female genitalia
''I just feel I have bigger balls than the boys. I used to see Eninem in concert and people were bringing their little brother or whatever. Nobody stops them and say, 'Would you stop swearing Eminem, for loads of money?' I don't get it.
''On the one hand you have people saying, 'We want her to be hard and raunchy and explicit,' and on the other hand there's, 'Nicki Minaj, would you stop swearing for the children please?' It's like, what do you want me to be? How many different people can I f**king be?''

Despite her openness to cursing, Nicki admits she is ''very strict'' on youngsters close to her and will never allow them to swear because it would ''upset'' her.
She added to the Guardian's Weekend magazine: ''I don't want children cursing. I'd be very upset. I don't want children cursing. I'm very strict on my nieces and my little brother. They have to listen to clean versions of music. Even my music.
''If you asked any adult, 'Would you like your children knowing every part of your life and speaking exactly the way you speak when you talk to adults?' They'd say, 'No'. So I'm a firm believer in children remaining children.''

Rihanna 'Lands Fast And Furious Role'

Rihanna without make up... On the photo shown. She still got the looks anyway that is not the story here.Rihanna is set to continue her big screen takeover with a villainous role in the next The Fast And The Furious movie, according to U.K. reports.
The Umbrella hitmaker made her move into acting with her film debut in blockbuster Battleship earlier this year (11), and now she has reportedly landed a leading part in the sixth installment of the hit action franchise.
Rihanna will play a femme fatale alongside regulars Paul Walker and Vin Diesel, and will film her part in London, according to Britain's The Sun.
A source tells the newspaper, "Rihanna impressed with her acting debut in Battleship. Writers think she'll be perfect for the role. Her character has plenty of bite and doesn't take any prisoners - just like her in real life.
"It's a step up the ladder for her and could lead to bigger action roles."

Lil Wayne Settles $20 Mil 'Lollipop' Lawsuit

Lil Wayne has finally struck a truce with a bitter ex-producer over the Grammy Award-winning "Lollipop" and other songs -- settling the producer's $20 lawsuit out of court.
TMZ broke the story ... producer Darius Harrison -- aka Deezle -- sued Weezy over the album "Tha Carter III," claiming he produced several songs on the record, including "Lollipop," but was never paid for his work.
According to Darius, the album grossed over $70 million -- and he wanted $20 million to call it even.
Wayne initially shot him down -- claiming Darius had no grounds to sue -- but the two parties recently reached a confidential agreement, finally settling the case.
The case has since been dismissed.

Man United to follow Chelsea's Example ? Parking the Bus they call it

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY

The extracts on this page are taken from selected national newspapers. The views expressed here do not necessarily reflect the views of Manchester United.

Papers: Reds to Park the bus?

30/04/2012 09:00
Ji-sung Park Ian Herbert writes in The Independent...
Ferguson ponders playing Park

Sir Alex Ferguson is giving deep consideration to recalling Ji-Sung Park tonight for his first Premier League start in three months – a move which reflects his determination to take at least a point from the Etihad.

United have been working for several days in training with a system in which Park operates in a packed, five-man midfield, with Wayne Rooney the solitary striker. Ferguson also sees experience as critical to the effort to secure a point which would leave United four points away from their 20th title with two games to play.
 But in a sign that Roberto Mancini is also disinclined to gamble with an attacking starting XI, Nigel de Jong is under consideration for a start in a formation which would see Yaya Touré pushed on to operate behind a lone striker – mirroring Ferguson's own thinking.

 Ferguson has indicated that his coaching staff have been working on "two or three things" and Park has been one of them. He has slipped almost entirely out of favour, with no game time since the Europa League elimination in Bilbao on 15 March. Park's selection risks reducing Rooney to a frustrated individual in the lone striker role.
 He also operated there, with Park and Giggs behind in a five-man midfield, for the desperate Champions League exit at Basel on 7 December. But there was good news on the injury front for Ferguson at the weekend, with both Nani and Jonny Evans involved for the entirety of Saturday morning's training session at their South Wales getaway.

The Independent also relays quotes from Paul Scholes given to Telefoot, hinting he may stay on for another year and the Daily Mail carry the story from Germany regarding Borussia Dortmund's fear that Shinji Kagawa could join United but, obviously, much of the focus is on the derby. The Sun previews the match on its front page, proclaiming: 'Best Man Wins'.

Angelina Jolie Starving Herself As Her Hair Falls Out In Clumps

Angelina Jolie is up to her old anorexic tricks and that means starving herself. This has fiancé Brad Pitt losing his own mind for fear that Angelina’s health is in jeopardy. Sources report that Angelina’s hair is falling out in clumps and that her famous engagement ring is now too big and is falling off her finger.
Angelina is allegedly very insecure if she does not look as skinny as rake and thus she is ignoring the increasing toll that her lack of nourishment places upon her health. Angelina wants to be ‘model thin’ for her starring role in Maleficent and Brad has been forced to give Angelina an ultimatum. She must gain 10 pounds before the wedding or else… But headstrong Angelina has told Brad to forget about it.
Angelina now weighs less than 100 pounds at 5’ 7” and is determined to lose even more weight. A friend says: “She wants to show everyone that she’s the hottest A-list actress in Hollywood at any cost.”
The GLOBE Print Edition, May 7th tells the story:
Angelina reportedly wants to look her skinny best when she begins filming Maleficent, the title role in a sleeping beauty movie, in June. “She’s determined to stay slim for this movie,” says a source, “but the truth is she looks skeletal.”

Angelina let the world know that she and Brad were finally going to tie the knot when she sported a massive 16-karat white gold emerald-cut diamond sparkler while visiting L. A.’s museum of art with son Pax on April 11.
But the real shockers were the spindly delete legs and skeletal arms.
“Her engagement ring is already loose on her finger,” says a friend. “Brad gave it to her at Christmas and it’s fallen off on several occasions.
“She’s lost at least another 5 pounds and Brad told her enough is enough.”
But the Benjamin Button actor’s pleas are falling on deaf ears, reveals the insider.
“She doesn’t eat any processed foods – nuts and organic vegetables are her main staple,” says the pal.
“She often just forgets meals and rarely consumes more than 1000 calories a day
Friends say Brad, who has taken a year off from movie-making to organize the wedding and watch the kids is “desperately worried.”

“Brad’s noticed her hair is a lot thinner and clumps will fall out in his hands,” says a friend.
“She’s also tired all the time and he knows she can’t carry on like this for much longer.”
But Angie is determined to be stick-thin when filming starts in June. “She doesn’t see the problem,” adds a friend. “She insists she feels really fine and that she gets a real confidence boost knowing she’s model-thin.”
Angelina is obsessed with her appearance as are most Hollywood stars. They will go to any ends to try to look the way they think they should. Steroids, cosmetic surgery, starvation, whatever it takes. After all it is all about appearance in Hollywood and for most celebs when their looks are gone, then so are their careers. A pathetic state of affairs and it is us, the fans, who are to blame. If we made our entertainment consumption choices based primarily upon talent and not primarily upon looks then so would the producer – they would have no choice! Imagine if professional sports teams selected their squads based upon the appearance of the players not their skill?

Khloe & Lamar Pulling Plug on Spin-Off Show

Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian have decided to pull the plug on their spin-off show "Khloe & Lamar."
Sources tell TMZ, the show's second season will be its last ... because Lamar wants to focus on reviving his fizzling NBA career.
As we previously reported, Lamar was relegated to the Dallas Mavericks' inactive list after putting up career low numbers this season. If he's lucky, he'll be traded. If not, who knows ...
But we're told Lamar is determined to make a comeback -- and he feels he should focus on only one project. Lamar will be living in L.A. full-time and he's hired trainers to help him get his game back.
According to sources, Khloe and Lamar WILL make occasional appearances on the reality mother ship,"Keeping Up with the Kardashians" -- but that's it.

The best – and worst – celebrity Facebook games

When you aren't posting pics of your awesome dinner or infuriatingly cute cat, there's a good chance you're spending a chunk of your Facebook time playing games.
But while companies like Zynga, Playdom and PopCap dominate the scene, some other big players are getting in on the act.
In fact, one of the biggest players ever, hip-hop mogul Jay-Z, just launched a new Facebook game. Mr. Beyonce Knowles joins a growing group of celebrities who have taken the social network by storm, hoping to micro-transact their fame into a few extra bucks. But all celeb games are not created equal. Which of these deserve a spot on your Facebook gaming A-list, and which should be kicked back down to casting?


A-List

Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Online

Winner of the 'Most Obvious Facebook Game Name Ever' award, this buffet of Buffett lets Parrotheads chill out on a tropical island, virtually boozing it up at a beachfront bar while spending fake money on fake Hawaiian shirts. Yeah, sounds kind of irritating.
But believe it or not, Margaritaville Online is actually a lot of fun, earning high praise from critics and even snagging 'Best Social Game' honors at the recent Canadian Video Game Awards. Designed by legit game developer types at THQ, it's one of the best celeb efforts you'll find on Facebook.


B-List

Jay-Z's Empire

He's not a businessman, he's a business, man. And you can be too if you choose to follow Jay-Z's formidable footsteps in his just-launched, still-in-beta Facebook game, Empire.
While he's pretty much on top of the world these days, life wasn't always parties with LeBron and vacays with Beyonce. You'll start out in the streets of Marcy Housing in Brooklyn, running thrilling missions like "Visit mom, write rhyme" and "Hustle someone on the basketball court" while incessantly clicking on things. Sure, it borrows liberally from Mafia Wars 2, but if anyone gets the green light to sample, it's Jay-Z.

50 Cent's Blackjack

That's not the cost of the ante, that's THE 50 Cent. You know, the guy who brought us two bad/great third-person shooters on the consoles. I hear he also raps.

And while his game (built by GSN Digital) doesn't exactly raise the roof or anything, it's a serviceable, live blackjack game with a few nice gameplay tweaks in the form of rule-altering 'Boosts'. The big gripe? It features generic, no-name hip hop tracks instead of music from, say, 50 Cent.


C-List

Retro World

Still Love Lucy? Have a lock of Elvis' hair in a hermetically sealed envelope? That's creepy, but so is Retro World.

Basically the Facebook game version of 'TV Land' (the interface even mimicks an old television), it's an episodic trip back in time. You'll help Lucy and Ethel wrap chocolate in the famous 'Job Switching' episode, guide Marilyn Monroe through a detective yarn, and possibly play with The King himself. Though seriously lacking in social options, this mini-game packed trip down memory lane holds just enough nostalgic appeal to be worth a look. Besides, you can always just change the channel.

Gagaville

The pop sensation threw gamers a curveball when she announced a partnership with Zynga that would create a Farmville farm adorned in full Lady Gaga splendor.

The point? Ostensibly, Gagaville, which is no longer online, was designed to promote her 2011 'Born this Way' album by featuring advance tracks from the record. But it also features all sorts of Gaga insanity, including farm staples like unicorns, electric chapels, crystals, and motorcylces. Huh? A little bit weird and little bit corporate — just like the Lady herself.

D-List

Snooki's Match Game

This is actually the second recent game featuring the likeness of Nicole Polizzi (full disclosure: I had to look that up), though the first, an app called Snookify Me!, was more of a horrifying photo filter than a game.

Snooki's Match Game? Well, it's not much of a game, either. Players first match up 'Guidos and Guidettes', then choose which partner is hotter, then presumably feel bad all day for being so judgmental. Wait, didn't Mark Zuckerberg do this already? Oh man, Snooki's going to make billions.

The Day is Here... Man C vs Man U

The most anticipated showdown of the season is set to kick off in a few hours. The city of Manchester is abuzz with excitement as the clock ticks away to the defining moment of this year's Barclays Premier League season. The table has only been led by either of the two Manchester heavyweights and the clash comes at a time where there have been awkward twists and turns in the title race.


Manchester City looked destined to win the league when they thrashed Manchester United back in October, but here we are with the second Manchester Derby on tap and the title on the line.Weeks ago United were eight points clear and seemed to have sealed their 20th crown but unlikely slip-ups at Wigan and a "shameful" draw with Everton at the Theatre of Dreams have blown the race wide open again.



The last time Manchester City and Manchester United squared off they were on the red side of the city, but the Citizens left made it feel very blue. Down 1-0, the Red Devils had Johnny Evans sent off in the 47th minute and the floodgates opened. By the time the two teams left the pitch at Old Trafford, there were empty seats everywhere as United supporters couldn't stand to watch their rivals thrash their beloved Red Devils, 6-1.
 

 That match came back on October 23 and on that date, it was impossible to see anyone except for City winning the league. They were off to a blazing hot start to the season, had already taken a hold of first place and just made United look silly. The Citizens might as well have been handed the trophy right then and there, or so it seemed.


Whatever it seemed was wrong because it has been a while since City looked like the same team that marched into Old Trafford and dismantled United. They've struggled, dropping points and falling out of first place. United has risen to the top, much to the delight of the Red Devils' supporters, who have not been shy about their feelings that City are just trying to buy trophies.

Even with City's struggles, they have managed to stay right on United's heels and now as they get ready to play their rivals once again, they find themselves just three points off the pace. While that might be abhorrant to any City supporter who thought the title was theirs in October, it's not a particularly bad place to be in. They have the goal difference edge over United and if they can win at Eastlands on Monday, they will be even on points with their rivals and ahead on that goal difference.
 

The build up to this game by the teams has been varied. Mancini has opted to use mind games by claiming his side have conceded the title to relive the pressure off his players and probably make the red half of Manchester United somehow complacent. Fergie has applied a rather cautious approach insisting that this is the greatest derby in his title-laden 25 year spell at Manchester United.

Let us look into some factors that  could decide the champions of England today in thought by some:
