Big weekend of footie coming up, Kickettes! 

What will you be doing and who will you be stalking/supporting?

A question: Did Iker miss the memo about required shirt removal at the end of matches? What gives?

Side note: base layers are ruining our lives.

Air kisses and non-alcoholic champagne-flavoured beverages are in order for Jamie and Louise Redknapp, who are expecting their second child together.

Louise recently confirmed she is three and a half months pregnant:

“When I did the pregnancy test, I nearly fell off the chair. The doctors don’t know why it has been so much easier this time - it’s just the luck of the draw I guess.”

It took Louise four years to get pregnant with her son Charley (born in July, 2004), as she suffers from endometriosis.

Congratulations!

What’s the verdict on Frank Lampard’s sandals, Kickettes? They’re giving us the itchies. 

But then, we have a weird aberration to men’s feet - esp ballers, who surely have beat up tooties on par with ballet dancers.

Hope you’re enjoying your moment in the sun, Lampsy… the clock is ticking, dollface.

Welcome to another round of the Thursday Thigh Off, please make yourself comfortable.

Up first is Habib Beye, a French/Sengalese defender for Newastle United.  Some random HB info? He has his own theme song by way of the terraces, sung to the tune of Happy Days. (Strangely we have no reports of any songs specifically dedicated to his quads, but we’re sure someone is working on that.) When Habib first joined the EPL, he said he had to work to bulk up in order to deal with the physical side of the English game. He’s also mates with TTO winner Didier Drogba.

Habib’s competition comes by way of Germany: Michael Ballack.  Mr. B has just been offered a three-year deal to stay with Chelsea and to continue to flex and contract his thighs exclusively during that period.  Michael gives good height - he’s 6"2’, he plays in midfield and he has his own website if you’re interested in spending some clicking time elsewhere.

Who takes the title this round, dear readers?

Congrats to last week’s winner, the lush Paolo Maldini, who beat the some seriously thightastic competition from Micah Richards. Don’t worry Micah, you’re young, you will eventually get over this loss.

“If Coleen doesn’t like my new boobs, I’ll squeeze her head between them…

My aim is to look like Jordan. I’ll soon be getting them out all over the place.”

You do remember Nat, don’t you? She’s the one who flashed whilst experiencing alcohol poisoning at Coleen’s 21st. Can’t think why Col wouldn’t want her at the wedding next month…

cheers mxa!

Kickettes in the South-West area scurry your little stalking behinds as fast as you can. 

We’ve just got word that Fulham FC are involved in some form of topless training at Motspur Park. They are training with no restrictive items of clothing anywhere on their person.  Right now. Go, and bring a camera (unlike our source who we have since fired for this oversight).

That is all.

Whoo boy, this is a doozy.

Here’s Jude Cisse, who is about six-months pregnant, out with her hubby and Lord of the Manor of Frodsham, Djibril. They’re celebrating her birthday and baby shower.

Let’s address Jude first.  We want to mock - we do. But she’s pregnant. And we’re quite sure there is a universal law against poking fun at those who are with child. If you mock, you will grow a large mole with a fly hair. It’s fact.  So we won’t mention anything about the bouffant.  Not one word.

As for Dijibril, sure, there’s an initial and paralyzing effect of shock and fashion confusion - he is, after all, wearing white shoes. But the more we analyse, we have to admit to thinking the suit is rather zoot and his whole interpretation of what constitutes normal evening attire is so askew it’s actually fantastic.  Then again, we may just be in need of another piece of cheese fondue with a side of 8-track.

Random: Jude is planning on opening her own luxury day spa in Helsby, called Rouge et Noir.

Random two: Thierry Henry’s ex, Claire Merry, was also at the shower. Yes, those are trousers from the WAG-fav boutique, Bouf ‘n Billow.

Oh how we hate the winding down of the footie season. It means we’re left with randoms, non-news and little by the way of man candy, aside from archived photos we can (and will) be digging up to get us through. Ah well, let us look on the bright side: we have time to discover and learn new information about foreign WAGs and their crazy world of bizarre photo shoots in exotic locales.

Here’s former-Wonderbra model Adriana Karembeu, who has been married to now-retired French player Christian Karembeu (Real Madrid, Bastia) for nearly ten years. We think the reason their love has lasted this long is because they obviously share an appreciation for the camera. We’re particularly impressed by Adriana’s ability to ride a bicycle with no hands and no bra. (See below).

Imagery-crazy aside, Adriana has quite the CV - she’s currently the Editor-in-Chief of Fox Media’s Tele Showbiz Magazine, and has an anti-aging skin care line.  She’s also worked for the International Red Cross and was the Ambassador of the International Federation for Human Rights.  Also, and perhaps most impressive of all: she has been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records for having some of the world’s longest legs - 126 centimeters (49.5 inches).

Yup.  So… Roll on Euro 2008 and the CL final. You’re all we’ve got to live for at this point.

“Freddie [Ljungberg]’s such a gentleman. He’s sexy and really knows how to turn a girl on. But Kieran [Richardson]’s my little rough diamond. He’s a bad boy, that’s why I like him. We didn’t see much of New York, but a lot of our hotel bedroom. I know it’s naughty, both at the same time, but I’m a naughty girl.” So says model Anara Atanes, remembering the good old days when she two-timed Freddie L back when he was still at Arsenal.

Fulham keeper Kasey Keller has chosen Kaká for Time magazine’s 2008 Top 100 Most Influential People list.  He brands the soon-to-be dad as a hero and pioneer.  “...In an age in which many professional athletes care more about cars, women and controversy, it’s refreshing to see one who is committed to having a positive impact on the world around him.”

Manchester United’s Michael Carrick looks set to win the property battle with Blackburn manager Mark Hughes. It’s a war of super-sized bedrooms and multi-gazillion pound renovations. When do they get their own reality TV show?

For those who have any interest (we’re guessing possibly three, maybe four of our heterosexual male readers), here’s Cristiano Ronaldo’s g/f working it out in a bikini contest. 

C-Ron loving Kickettes, it’s a pain that never ends, yes?

thx LL!
