Earlier this week internationally famous singing person Adele threw her support for the Premiership title behind Tottenham Hotspur.
That in and of itself is only sort of newsy, but The18 has learned that Adele's smash hit "Hello" was originally written about Spurs, and we've gotten hold of an exclusive (fake) copy of an early studio take, which we present to you here:
Adele: OK let's get started! Pip pip jiminy crumpets!
IIker Casillas se casó con su novia de toda la vida, Sara Carbonero, según dicen los reportes. La relación se convirtió una fuente de noticias diarias durante la Copa del mundo del 2010, empezando con la derrota de España ante Suiza en la fase de grupos y con un beso al aire entre los dos.
Casillas y Carbonero empezaron a salir en el 2009 y su relación fue lanzada de inmediato a los medios debido a que Casillas era el portero principal de España y Carbonero estaba trabajando como reportera deportiva para Telecinco, un canal de noticias importante de España.
So, here's the deal: supposedly, there is actually a Jamie Vardy movie in the works. No, seriously.

The man behind the movie, Adrian Butchart, is the man behind the "Goal!" trilogy and he has reportedly started the conversation on getting a Vardy movie made.
Cristiano Ronaldo wants his son to grow up to be just like him. Whether or not that is possible will depend on a lot of factors (you know, like growing up and all that good stuff), but it seems that Ronaldo is trying to foster Cristiano Jr.’s love of the game, with out forcing him to be anything.
"I want my son to be a player. I am a footballer and I want him to be one too," the Real Madrid star told the Chinese channel Zhejiang Satellite TV.
Ya no está Johan Cruyff, el jugador que revolucionó el fútbol a principios de los 70. Cruyff personificó la famosa filosofía del Fútbol Total, pero no ganó la Copa Mundial de 1974, la única en la que jugó.
Cruyff como jugador ganó tres Balones de Oro antes de retirarse del fútbol internacional en 1977, el año antes de que Holanda jugara de nuevo en una final de la Copa del Mundo. Desafortunadamente Argentina '78 terminó como Alemania Occidental '74. Holanda no pudo vencer a la anfitriona Argentina en la final, y volvió a ser subcampeona.
David Beckham will grace the cover of the April edition of GQ, and revealed in an interview with Michael Paterniti that he believes he could still cut it in Major League Soccer.
Neymar made his professional debut when he was just 17 years old. He was still a kid, with idols and a need to prove himself, and probably had no idea how much success he would eventually see. Seven years later, Neymar is a part of one of the greatest teams of all time, and has done enough to surpass Neymar’s greatest idol as a child: Robinho.
In case you missed it last week, Liga MX took MLS to school in the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals. The Mexican clubs (Club America, Queretaro, Santos Laguna, and Tigres) dominated their American opposition. While watching the results unfold, I realized I don’t know much about Mexico’s Liga MX and I needed to learn more.
So after diving into the wild world of Mexican club soccer, I came away with a wonderful, crazy, exciting, and bizarre realization.
Club Tijuana is AWESOME.
Ronaldo’s family has stepped up to protect Cristiano Jr. from media criticism after he was caught on camera looking at a phone while his dad played against Celta Vigo.
The newspaper Diario SPORT originally called out Cristiano Jr for being distracted during the game.
Have you ever had one of those moments where completely unrelated things just start to intertwine with each other?
Sort of like when you're moving and you throw a bunch of cables into the same box and maybe once they had a purpose, but that purpose has been long forgotten by the inevitable decay of time and a serious lack of organizational skills.
