I know Shigs would take one look at all these pictures of Kaka with America’s favorite rodent and say “Icky Mouse” as sure as I’m standing here. Speaking of, I had a lovely time with with watishistas Shigs, P, forzasusan & Baby Girl last night at the Spain vs. Ireland game. It was a drive by for me. I pretty much arrived and hit my seat right before the national anthem and tore out of there right after. Week night games suck. Ireland did a great job much to the delight of forzasusan. I spent a lot of time sneaking peeks at Nando bitchfacing non-stop on the bench. He did bust out a big grin and a hug for Robbie Keane though.
Anyhow, back to Kaka. So why is he with Mickey? He was promoting the Disney Cup International, a youth soccer competition held annually.
Kaka’s wife, Carol, posted a shot with bebes Isabella and Luca. They also enjoyed the Magic Kingdom.
Cheering on the Real Madrid basketball team the other night were Xabi, Jon, Nagore, the Callejon twins and their ladies.
Cristiano kicked off his vacation by hanging with friends who share similar taste in challenging fashion.
Pilar and Sergio appeared in the tabloids, while hanging on the beach.
Clarice learned her lines in Brazil…
Lena looked freaking gorgeous in Africa…
Shakira is going to be the cover girl of Elle. I’ve enjoyed her on The Voice. Anyone else agree?
Nuri shared some adorable beach pictures with Omer…
Mesut & Mandy brought the treacle with this shot that they both posted. Her caption: “And then YOU came into my life….” His caption: “The sexiest curve on her body is her smile….” I would be deafened by the online fangirl squealing, but thankfully, it’s reached a pitch that only dogs can hear. 😉
Updated: Guess Kaka got a tad competitive in the romantic picture stakes and posted this shot saying “My best friend, my one true love” Your move, Mesut!
Diego and Iria continue to be super cute. They just celebrated their 2nd wedding anniversary, complete with a cake, their baby girl and roses courtesy of a romantic DLo. Iria also posted a lovely wedding shot.
Aw! They also got in a little family vacation time with fishing and playing in the sand.
And my beloved Stu Holden shows us what he wears on game day and that’s stars spangled underpants! Bless. STUSA! STUSA! STUSA!
It’s hit the news that Leo Messi and his dad are being accused of tax fraud. The alleged fraud started before he was of age and his father was in charge of his finances. The Messis maintain that they have not committed any infringement and have asked their tax consultants to sort the matter out. Argh. Stressful.
And with that, I’m off for the evening to the Chickfactor 21 Festival to see some old friends play with watishistas dollo, JOD and Baby Girl. So looking forward to that!

RE: mandy and mesut – to borrow a quote from star wars, that my friend used when a very hot guy friend of ours got married: “I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.”
icky mouse. i’m dying. so simple, so clever.
Ha! The Star Wars quote is perfection. I just know I won’t be going anywhere near Tumblr or LiveJournal for awhile so as not to choke on my own vomit reading reactions. People get beyond over the top when it comes to this couple (in both directions). 😉
Avoid. I just saw the pic in instagram and the comments range from death threats to calling her fat.
Meanwhile I’m cringing at his caption. The picture is sweet… That first holiday away is always special for the two you and nauseating to others who have to see pictures.
I think that everybody has the right to express his opinion (we live in a democratic world) without insulting or wishing someone else Death.
I mean you can say you don’t like Mandy (or Mesut) being “polite”…
And in my opinion this pics of Mandy&Mesut cause diabetes LOL
#ImNotARomanticPerson
Yeah, I cannot believe some of the comments people make. What on earth is wrong with them?!
Fat?! How depressing…these girls commenting shit have zero grace, or come to mention it social skills. Like he cares what they think (I sincerly hope she doesn’t). And what part of nastiness or spite is ever attractive? Yeh so you make horrible remarks based on someones appearence, you’re totally the gal for me!!! #sarcasm
YES! I started to laugh when I saw the pic cause I knew it just broke a thousand hearts. It’s adorable, but now haters and lovers alike are gonna be oogling over it.
Re Mesut & Mandy….Love that analogy! Bottom line is that they’re just kids tho, right? I remember the first hol abroad with a proper bf…I think we broke up 3 times in 10 days being stuck in an apartment in magalluff. Yeh, they’re young n beautiful…good luck to them!
enjoy being young and rich, you crazy kids! really, i just want pictures of their pugs together.
Quarentine, is that the word? #pugmerge #nothappening
I think my heart stopped when I saw Mesut’s picture. He just cannot be with someone else! And he just has to have a thing for older women! But really, that picture hurt – don’t know why – but it did. I have a crazy mind, that’s all!
Actually, she’s younger than him.
It’s too bad it was a fly-by for you last night. One of these days we’ll see each other at one of these matches.
And you’ve seen this right? I’m usually the judgy person side-eying the parents of kids behaving like this in public, but Bratty Jon cannot be resisted.

The link didn’t work! But my nephew is 3 1/2 and he will do whatever he wants, regardless of tellings off, promises or threats…lil kids are a force of nature, I find that attitude too cute! You’re prob going to spend your life between 5 and 65 being told what to do…chill out and kick back when you can get away with it! My step sis tells a story about when her youngest was 3 or so:
Bebe: Mama, where you been?
Mama: I had to go to the supermarket
Bebe: why didn’t you take me
Mama:….um…cos you were busy? (hopefull)
Bebe: (cue meltdown) BUT I WANTED TO GO WITH YOU!!
Mama: Ok, next time?
Bebe: BUT I WANTED TO GO WITH YOU THIS TIME
Try arguing with that logic. I’ll stick with cats.
Try this one:
It’s not to be missed!
Damn, our boys (and ladies) are all so fine!
D-lo is giving me feelings…unph.
Oh and the picture with CR in it, he really needs to start dressing and looking his age. If you saw him on the street, would you think he was a successful man (both in work and money)? I wouldn’t. I just wish he and Sergio get help with their dressing and CR getting a real haircut.
How hot would Cris be if he just shaved his head. Seriously, just put your thumb over that rooster comb he’s got on his head. See?
I’m having mixed feelings about this idea. He’s so close… But I think he’s too vain to shave completely.
I am really curious over the tax thing with leo. I want to see how that goes
I’m thinking this is an issue more with their accountant. I seriously doubt Messi’s dad does their taxes himself.
Worse case scenario, it might something similar to the situation with Gary Barlow, Jimmy Carr, etc., where they authorized the accountant to, well, save them some money with creative accounting measures. In that case, I don’t think they’d be legally liable (although I don’t know Spanish tax laws), but the pristine image would take a hit. Of course, Barca won’t let that happen, so I see either a press blackout or a shit ton of press leakage.
I just hope that when they say they’re getting accounting professionals to look into the matter, they’re not talking about the same people who got them into that situation in the first place.
I know people are going to be in a tizzy about Mesut and Mandy, but my baller blues are entirely directed at the Sergio and Pilar beach photos. Blah.
Meanwhile, Stuart is looking good!
I know, me too! I mean I’m all about Sergio, but feel protective of Mesut for some reason. I think I have the RM fever…..damn all of you! 🙂
Everyone else I just want them to be happy, so I’m on board with Mesut and Mandy. But any gf of Sergio’s brings out my green eyed monster.
No matter who you technically support, Madrid’s boys will eventually lure you in. They’re too attractive to resist.
Regardless of the captions mesut and Mandy are really cute I think!
Also – isn’t that cristiano’s brother and BIL? No wonder they dress alike.
I hope this isn’t the level of excitement we should expect in terms of Sergio on the beach. I mean, c’mon, even his shorts are longer! He was so much more fun last summer.
I take it back. It seems Sergio had, um, fun in New York. Nando too. The fangirls are tearing down the internet. LMAO
Yeah, saw that. It’s a fucking zoo out there right now.
And now there’s a bit of Crispy gossip out of Miami too. Ay. At least there aren’t any pics… yet.
Yeah, I can’t even with all that. Won’t post about it because I want once place on the internet that isn’t filled with the tortured screams of fangirls. 😉
Haha, I keep typing out replies and then editing them for fear that I might say something to bring the horde over this way.
That’s precisely why I’m not posting the pictures!!!!!
Thanks for keeping this area clean. But god, the fangirls have been entertaining today. Entertaining in their ridiculousness that is.
I told Sergio not to tell our secrets……. 🙂
Oooh, sounds juicy! LOL Just know that you can always share those kinds of secrets with us. 😉 Ok, I’m going to stop now before a random reader takes us seriously. The internet’s in that mood today.
Waitaminit – is there goss?! How do you find out this stuff? And why aren’t you sharing?!
Because the way you’ve worded it there sounds like nando and Sergio did actually hook up in NY and there is evidence.
If that isn’t the case, and they (and Crispy) just hooked up with some random (let me guess, a ‘model’ or ‘aspiring TV presenter’) instead of with each other then that’s so old hat/predictable then I agree it’s not worth sharing. Footballer shags girl on vacation – who’d have thought it??!!
LMAO I so love that your mind went straight to SerNando hooking up with each other, rather than some randoms. 😀 No, sorry girl, it’s not that. If they’d been with each other, and I had evidence, I wouldn’t be able to shut up about it!
Yep, thats exactly how my mind works…
Am I the only one wishing Arbeloa would comment on every Mesut insta-pic?? He’s only done it twice before, but both were pure gold and now every time Mesut updates I’m thinking, “What does Arbie have to say about this … ?”
And, like the somewhat unhinged lady who lives four houses down from me and likes to throw things from her bedroom window in the morning while blaming Moroccans for all that is wrong in society, bitchy fangirls shouldn’t even be considered, let alone listened to. Be it they’re delusional or genuinely unpleasant, self-absorbed little cows, leave them to fester in their mud pens (aka Tumblr) while the rest of us celebrate what HEALTHY romances are all about 🙂
yes! i love when arbeloa gets snarky on social media. like when he told that one girl that esteban wasn’t the only one who knew how to read.
YES. That was the best when he said that!
