Last time we checked, wearing hair rollers in public was a “Don’t” in most sensible ladies’ books.
Well thanks to a recently misinterpreted decree from Vogue, the British press is now claiming that the baffling, mind-boggling and completely WAG-like trend of wearing hair rollers whilst out and about is now in fashion.
Not so fast.

While staring at this photo of two Borussia Dortmund boys and their WAGs at a post-fashion show party in honour of sweets and other high carb/high sugar delights, we were struck by one undeniable truth: shop assistants lie. Oh, how they lie.
They lie to the innocent and cash-rich when they tell them, “Why yes, Mr Kehl, Palm Beach suits are going to be huuuge this Spring.”
They lie when they also say, “Shresses with elastic hems and colorful Missoni-like haberdashery are a must for any woman seeking a front row seat at Berlin Fashion Week,” as well as, “Whatever it is you’ve got on your feet really bring out the warmth in your eyes, Josipa.”
Anyway as we were saying, Borussia Dortmund’s (from left to right) Patrick Owomoyela, his steady sweetheart, Josipa, his team-mate, Sebastian Kehl, and Kehl’s WAG, Tina Kruger, hit the red carpet together two weeks ago in Cologne, Germany, to celebrate the annual International Sweets and Biscuits Fair (ISM).
Naturally, we’ve signed up for VIP tickets to next year’s shindig.

As bromances go, we can’t say we expected this. But ya know what? It might just be mad enough to work… Image: REUTERS/Eddie Keogh.
It’s past 5 o’clock somewhere, Kickettes.
Consider that an explanation for our poor spelling, lack of coherence and just about anything else that’s horribly wrong after the jump.

We’re quite certain this falls into the “breaking news” category, but we’ll be damned if we put the effort into Googling the amount of times a ‘baller has been seen with his sweetie at Cricket. For as long as we’ve been spouting nonsense and abalicious photos, it’s never happened.
Perhaps Charlie’s fiancée fancied herself a pair of limited edition Ruthie Davis hi-tops with signature spikes, something she’s been recently lusting over on Twitter. For a measly £350.00 (or $645), it’s no wonder Sophie-Leigh decided to bring her man and his credit card along for the boutique shopping ride.
But still, a footballer bravely (and knowingly) entering the confines of Cricket with his lady in tow and without a noose around his neck is a rarity ’round those parts. So much so that we’re slightly scared and acting all melodramatic about the apocalypse coming to get us before our next blowout.
Only gossip mags and Jaffa Cakes can save us now, Kickettes. Stay strong and start stock piling.

It was only a matter of time before the living Barbie became a real Barbie, wasn’t it?

Proud husband Rafael tweeted some pics of the Sylvie Barbie that was unveiled at a toy fair in Germany today. Toy makers Matel even worked with Sylvie’s stylist Danie Bles to make sure every detail of the Jan Taminiau dress she wore on Let’s Dance last year was accurate.
Sylvie is working as an ambassador for a European design competition with Barbie. This makes us think of what other WAGs would make good Barbies. We’ve affectionately dubbed Claudine Keane “Hot Mess Barbie,” but there must be more. Alex Gerrard as “Trend Monger Barbie” perhaps? Yolanthe Cabau as “Hair Envy Barbie?”

After seeing the latest pics of Xabi Alonso and wifey Nagore shopping at D&G in Madrid, we got to thinking: have we ever seen Ane Alonso?
Okay, we have. Once. But have we ever seen Ane Alonso as a toddler?
We thought not, which is why we’re donating hi-res photos of her to your desktop files and Tumblr accounts now, Kickettes. Four months after these shots were taken. Yeah, we know – last one to show buys first round, third is the one with the hairy chest, etc.
Whaddya say we stop now and let you guys and gals take it from here? We’re confident you’ll be just fine if left unattended.

Kickettes, do you recall the veiled threat we (and many, many other members of the media) received from legal firm, Schillings, on behalf of their clients, the Gerrards, requesting privacy from the paps whilst out with their kids?
If not, read about it here.
Well recently, and as we rightly predicted, Lourdes made her grand entrance into the public world via the same pages that pay Alex for her brainless ramblings, which OK! magazine considers to be “columns.”
We felt the need to remind you of these previous tales due to the odd and slightly amusing story gleaned from Popbitch early this morning.
