Welcome to Offbeat Wednesday, where we bring you the wacky and pinky side of football. Today, read about Irina Shayk turning down ‘Playboy’, Neymar’s Singing Antics, Podolski’s Future and Granero’s Miami Escapade.
The world’s most favourite footballer to hate, Cristiano Ronaldo, recently visited Dubai with his namorada, Irina Shayk. They’re planning to get married after the Euro 2012 this year, so Portuguese wedding planners better start getting their acts together!
The Russian model interestingly declared that she will never pose for Hugh Hefner‘s ‘Playboy’ magazine, although she was offered the deal many times in the past. “Yes, I am a lingerie model, but I have class,” she said. “(They) gave me a lot of money last year, but I declined even in jest. I think of myself as a cover girl, but never for such magazines.” Way to go, Irina!!
Who doesn’t love the song ‘Ai seu te pego‘ by Michel Telo?! It’s On the playlist of every Brazilian footballer on this planet (except maybe Diego Ribas’) and the official song of the Milan Musketeers. Here’s Neymar singing it ‘live’ on stage with the brain behind the song, Michel Telo and his awesome backup dancers. The Santos player has performed and danced many times on live TV, but he looks like a real pro doing it this time!
Nossa, nossa … assim você me mata!!!
Lukas Podolski aka Arsenal’s Target Man was seen out and about with his personal advisor yesterday, Kon Schramm, in the club’s parking lot. The good news is that Lukas has asked for more time to think about signing a new contract with Cologne and he believes that his next “big project” to make an impact is at the Euro 2012 (Get in there!) The club’s sporting director held a meeting yesterday to discuss the terms of the striker’s future, but it seems his mind is elsewhere.
Podolski, who was recently involved in a car accident, has declared many times in the past that he wants to leave for a bigger team.
Lastly, here’s a photo sent in to us by our reader Danielle (thanks chica!) of Real Madrid’s Esteban Granero and his Russian model girlfriend, Shelby, in Miami Beach last weekend. There’s only one song that could possibly accompany that incredibly satisfied look on Esteban’s face and that’s “I’m in Miami, Beach!”
Our source adds :
“She is all over the place down here, and is never seen without a posse of celebs around her in VIP at all times..she’s absolutely gorgeous (Real men love models). The two were out this past weekend getting cozy in VIP at two of South Beach’s hottest nightclubs.”
