Oprah to blame for Golden Globe snub of ‘The Butler' say cast & crew

Image
Hilarious report. Check it out below When asked how come ‘The Butler’ film has been shut out of the nominations for the 2014 Golden Globe Awards- after getting rave reviews from critics and doing well at the box office- the entire cast and crew of the film unanimously pointed accusing fingers at Oprah Winfrey, according to reports. “Frankly speaking, look no further than Oprah,” said The Butler Director, Lee Daniels. “I knew it was wrong casting her as Gloria Gaines but I didn’t have the bottle to tell her. I mean how do you tell a billionaire she really can’t hack it on the big screen?” Forest Whitaker, Academy Award winner, is said to be devastated. As the lead character in The Butler, playing Cecil Gaines, Whitaker is said to have been very optimistic on adding a 2nd golden statuette to his Oscar glory next year. The Golden Globe is often seen as a barometer for Oscar nominations. Whitaker is said to be furious Oprah could have cost him a second Oscar. “This

Blatter confirms vanishing spray will be used to mark free-kicks during World Cup

Image
FIFA president Sepp Blatter has confirmed that a vanishing spray would be used to mark out free-kicks at next year's World Cup finals in Brazil. Referees will be armed with the spray during matches to mark a line on the ground where the defensive wall, and ball, must be stationed during free-kicks. The water-based spray, which disappears about a minute after use, has successfully been trialled during the Club World Cup in Marrakesh. It will be used in addition to goal-line technology in Brazil, which is due to make its debut at the tournament to eradicate mistakes such as England midfielder Frank Lampard's disallowed goal against Germany in the second round of the 2010 World Cup. 'These are two new innovations and we've received positive feedback from teams, players and referees,' Blatter told reporters in Marrakesh before Saturday's World Club Cup final between Bayern Munich and Raja Casablanca. 'Everyone has been convinced by the t

Suarez commits future to Liverpool after penning new £200k-per-week long-term deal

Image
  Luis Suarez has ended speculation that he will be leaving Liverpool by penning a new long-term deal worth £200,000 per week. The Reds announced on Friday that their free-scoring Uruguayan – who has netted 17 times already this season – has committed his future to the club. It brings to a close the saga surrounding Suarez and reports that he could look to quit Anfield next year. He failed to manoeuvre a switch to Arsenal during the summer and was convinced to remain on Merseyside by boss Brendan Rodgers. But, having finalised the deal which extends to 2018, the 26-year-old said: ‘I am delighted to have agreed a new deal with Liverpool and have my future secured for the long term. ‘We have some great players and the team is growing and improving all the time. I believe I can achieve the ambitions of winning trophies and playing at the very highest level with Liverpool. My aim is to help get us there as quickly as possible. ‘Without doubt the backing I have rec

Radar Online blasts Mariah Carey for performing in Nigeria, calls us 'the world's center of bank fraud & human trafficking'

Image
Unbelievable. Can't believe some of the things these people write. US gossip site Radar Online yesterday scolded Mariah Carey in an article posted on their site, saying she shouldn't have accepted to do a gig in a country known for 'terror, death and fraud'. What nonsense, they can talk when the US is the number one crime capital of the world. Read the Radar Online article below... Mariah Carey proudly posted a pic of herself in a slinky yellow dress and wrote, “Backstage in Nigeria” on Saturday. But maybe the songbird should have done some homework before agreeing to the gig? Her show was at Access Bank’s Christmas Party which was also a farewell bash for the bank’s managing director. And while Access Bank is a reputable financial institution, should Carey have known a few basics about the African nation before taking the paycheck? Ironically — given that she was performing for bankers — it seems Carey wasn’t aware Nigeria is well-known as the center of the world’s ema
