Pacman, New Man

Manny Pacquiao is working to be a changed man by leaving his old lifestyle of partying late at night and his gambling habits. This is all thanks to his wife Jinkee.

The People’s Champ is set to add order and structure to his life. He is now rising up early in the morning and is involving himself with political, social, and religious activities.

With this lifestyle change, the public is also optimistic that Pacquiao’s attendance in congress will also improve. Last year, he was ranked as the fourth most absent congressman for his 27 attendance out of 59 sessions held.

Joe Jonas Spotted With Brazilian Model

Singer Joe Jonas have been sighted at several clubs in New York City in the past few weeks partying with Brazilian model Jessica Pott. They were also seen last weekend in Catch where Jessica arrived with two of her girlfriends. After the meal, they all went on to the SL club.

Despite such several sightings, sources said that the two were not exclusively dating. Representatives of the model even denied rumours about dating but says they do know each other.

I guess the public can only speculate so much. It seems that the singer is not making that trip to shop for designer engagement rings anytime soon.

Miss Universe 2011 Under Attack

iRonnie — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 09:32:10 +0000

Miss Angola, Leila Lopes, has just been crowned Miss Universe 2011 but threat of being dethroned is abuzz as allegations of falsification surfaces. Argentinian newspaper Infobae came up with a report saying that Lopes, who qualified through a competition for Angolan citizens living in the UK, has never lived outside of Angola.

A certain Charles Mukano allegedly helped fabricate documents that Lopes is a student of business management at a British school. Mukano is also said to have bribed judges of the said UK qualifying competition to ensure Lopes’ victory.

Lopes is the first Angolan to take home the crown. Whether she’ll be able to keep it or not is something we have yet to see.

Naruto Manga 555: Contradiction

iRonnie — Sat, 17 Sep 2011 00:10:13 +0000

After his Rasenshuriken failed against the third Raikage, Naruto attempts to create a tailed-beast bomb like that of the Hachibi that was believed to have inflicted the scar on the Raikage’s chest. However, Naruto’s training was still not enough to form the bomb and he lost his chakra shroud.

With the Raikage distracted by the decoy created by Dodai, a Cloud shinobi, Naruto patches to Bee and the Hachibi to find out how to defeat the former. But as it turns out, the Hachibi could not exactly remember how as they both fell to the ground unconscious. Coming up with a certain hunch, Naruto switches to sage mode in order to test his theory.

With a shadow clone, Naruto forms a regular rasengan and just as when the Raikage was attacking, he drives it to hit the latter’s arm. This confirms his theory that the scar on Raikage’s chest was inflicted by his own jutsu.

In Naruto Manga 556, we’ll see the battle between Gaara and the former Mizukage.

Lady Gaga; the international artist who often hits the headlines for her wild, outrageous, and flamboyant fashion style; goes all natural as she poses for the cover of Harper’s Bazaar. The said photos will also be included in a fashion film collaborated with Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin.

The singer said that her posing without makeup and with just a simple hair may be deemed “natural” but she is just as honest and sincere as with them. She said that she is always the same person inside. She also dismisses the possibility that her fans will be disappointed if she starts dressing like everyone else saying, “I think what has been lovely about my relationship with the public is that they expect something unexpected from me.”
