Shakira's Closing Ceremony World Cup Performance

Bringing an end to a month of world class sporting action, Shakira took the stage at the closing ceremony of the 2010 FIFA football World Cup on Sunday (July 11).

Making for quite the appropriate choice, the Colombian beauty dazzled the crowd as she enthusiastically performed the World Cup theme song "Waka Waka" to the joy of the thousands in attendance.
Meanwhile, Shakira was quite clear that she's rooting for Spain in the final, as they take on an undefeated Netherlands squad.

Talking to FIFA, the 33-year-old said of the month-long South African tournament, "I think this whole month that I spent in South Africa has been so inspiring, so stimulating, one of the happiest months of my life in recent years. It's been so exciting to wake up every morning looking forward to the matches, looking forward to the newspaper just to open the sports section because I became such a football fanatic. The people of South Africa are definitely the highlight of this World Cup. They're amazing, they're so joyful, expressive and affectionate. I've been feeling the love since the first day I arrived, every day more and more. For the first time of my life, I arrived at immigration and I saw the immigration officers actually dancing and singing the Waka Waka. It's been such an amazing experience."

Enjoy the pictures of Shakira performing at the World Cup's closing ceremony (July 11).

Shakira

Shakira is a Spanish name that came from the Arabic word for ‘graceful’. She speaks English, Spanish, Arabic, Portuguese, and Italian, and she can perform Arab belly dancing, which was taught by her Lebanese grandmother.

Shakira was born in Barranquilla to a Lebanese father and a Spanish-Italian mother, and moved to Bogotá at the age of thirteen. She released her first album, Magia(Magic), one year later, on the Sony label. The album was only moderately successful, and Peligro(Danger), her second album, was no better received.

Heidi Montag’s Transformers 3 Audition

Heidi Montag slapped together an audition tape for Michael Bay (after the jump) that’s literally nothing more than her firing guns at the shooting range while Spencer films it on an iPhone. I don’t even know where to begin with how retarded this approach is, so I’m just going to start listing things off the top of my head:

1. Nobody’s washing a Ferrari in a bikini.
2. Or a Lamborghini.
3. Michael Bay’s food is cleavage and you just made him die of starvation.
4. Shooting guns is for boys.
5. Heidi speaks.

Hopefully Heidi took notes except that’s a trick question because women aren’t allowed to write in Michael Bay movies. Though once I saw one read the numbers on a cell phone which I’m chalking up to a typo in the script.

2ND UNIT: Michael, it says here she “reads” the number on the phone.
MICHAEL: What? Let me see that. *reads* That’s the most inconceivable thing I’ve ever heard! Change it to Optimus Prime accidentally punches through the wall of the ladies room and she’s sitting on the can with her pants down.

Happy 4th, Everybody!

Alright, folks, I’m cutting out for the weekend and won’t be back until Tuesday, so please enjoy this magical slice of patriotism in my stead.

In the meantime, don’t forget to enter The Superficial Banner Girl Contest or comment on how retarded I am for not noticing this Katy Perry pic was missing a tattoo on her wrist. (Short answer: I have a penis.)

Can I change that to “Long answer?” Or, no, wait: “Herculean.”

Drink responsibly,

P.S. South Africa’s one of those countries that cuts off your hand for minor offenses, right? Say yes.

Tips To Buy Bikini Fabric

You can make a sporty or sexy bikini by visiting the local fabric store. All you need is a simple pattern and time for a little trial and error. Regardless of whether you're making outfits for the swim team or trying to save money on summer wear, it doesn't take much know-how to get started on a bikini-sewing project. The top manufacturers offer all kinds of Lycra and spandex fabrics, so you can make your own unique, custom-fitted bikini at home, in no time at all.

Step1
Hit the fabric store and select Lycra or Spandex-swimsuit material. The most expensive material is usually a four-way stretch spandex, which tends to last longer and provide a more comfortable fit than two-way stretch fabric. Check the spandex-to-nylon ratio, as fabrics with a higher concentration of spandex tend to be more expensive.

Step2
Test the fabric by stretching a small piece taut and releasing it. This will give you an idea of how the fabric will respond to wear and tear. Hold the fabric in a stretched-out position to get an idea of what it will look like when it's wet.

Step3
Pick a high-polyester-content fabric if you're going to wear your bikini in a high-chlorine-content swimming pool . Buy high nylon content if you're planning on exposing your bikini to salt water.

Step4
Select a color or print. When choosing colors, remember to mix and match tops and bottoms to create a stylish and flattering contrast.

Step5Ask the salesperson whether she has any extra spandex fabric for you to use to experiment with making a bikini. Buy samples if possible, so you don't waste expensive fabric on a tester bikini.

Step6Buy swimsuit lining to make sure your bikini isn't transparent. Get extra lining just in case you need more coverage, especially if you're making a lightly colored bikini bottom .

Step7Pick up elastic to help ensure the fit of your bikini. Ask the salesperson whether he sells elastic designed for chlorine exposure. Refer to the swimsuit pattern for width requirements. 

Step8Pick up some sheer or lightweight material, and use it to create a fun and flirty bikini wrap.
