This comes days after she was reported to have had sex in the toilet with Stephen Bear, her boyfriend in the house.

While kissing and romancing Stephen, the model looked a little worse for wear from too many drinks as she removed her top with the help of Stephen. With her 32HH oranges dangling, the 25-year-old then proceeded to gallop around the kitchen.

A housemate then encourages her to do a topless pole dance which she does while still looking drunk and then tells boyfriend Stephen  "you know you want it, come and get it!", before male housemate Lewis Bloor did the gentlemanly thing and gave her one of his shirts in an attempt to cover her up.

Anita Lovren, wife of high earning Liverpool footballer Dejan Lovren and mother of his two kids was simply not in the mood for paparazzi as she was pictured giving the middle finger to them as she  dropped off her husband at Liverpool's training ground on Tuesday afternoon, days after it was revealed that she had cheated with a forestry worker and even considered divorcing Dejan...

If not for a make-or-break holiday organised by the defender in June which meant he had to miss EURO 2016, their marriage would probably have ended by now.

Onlookers at the training ground, Melwood, said Anita, 26, drove her footballer husband to the session, dropped him off and left at around 3.30pm.

She then returned to their Range Range Rover a few hours later to pick him up and was annoyed by  the thronging number of autograph seeking fans and journalists, so she gave them the middle you finger

Policeman and his married lover found dead in Anambra State, generator fume suspected as cause

A police officer and his married lover were found dead in the man’s apartment on Saturday, August 6th, at Ezinifite Okpuno, Awka south local government area of Anambra state. The couple was suspected to have been killed by fume from a generating set in the apartment.

The woman, identified as Ifeoma Okeke, a mother of five resident in Awka is said to be an official of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, while the man is a married father of three whose family live in Lagos.

The state Police Public Relations Office, ASP Nkeiru Nwode, confirmed the incident but claimed that the man in question was not a member of the Nigeria Police Force.

According to Daily Trust, the woman had lied to her husband that she was attending a church night vigil, but ended up in her lover's house.

A neighbor who spoke to Daily Trust correspondent on condition of anonymity said that the sound of a small generating set was heard throughout the night around the deceased's apartment.

"Each time he was around, everybody would know, because he would run his generator all through the night. Everybody called him officer, but I think he was a police inspector," the neighbor said.

Another resident said a labourer who was to work for the man discovered their dead bodies in the morning "He alerted the neighbors who followed him to confirm the incident," the resident added.

The police and men of the NSCDC evacuated the corpses to a hospital in the state.

VIDEO::Wife catches husband with a call girl in their matrimonial home, kicks her out naked

A Thai man identified as Sonchai decided to save few coins by not taking a call girl to a short time hotel but instead invited her over to his house thinking that his wife was working late. According to reports, she was actually supposed to be working late but decided to leave early. She headed home to meet a surprise waiting for her.

After a few minutes of verbal abuse, the escort gets shown the door… in her birthday suit but there’s more to it that meets the eye. Somchai’s wife works as a "mamasan" (in Thailand and the Philippines, the term is used to describe a woman who manages the female workers in bars and brothels) for a sideline company, the same company he hired the girl from.

The call girl had no clue who her customer was which obviously adds fuel to the fire when her boss sees her. Somchai is not only sleeping with one of his wife's girls, he’s doing it in her condo – that he of course pays for.

Pogba arrives at Man Utd for medical ahead of £89m move

Paul Pogba has arrived at Manchester United for a medical before his world record £89m transfer from Juventus.

The France midfielder flew from Nice into Manchester Airport on Monday before making his way to the club's training ground.

United will pay the Italian champions 105m euros for Pogba, plus performance-related bonuses and other costs.

The deal for the 23-year-old, who left United for £1.5m in 2012, is due to be completed in midweek.

The Old Trafford club still have to agree personal terms with Pogba, although that is expected to be a formality.

Pogba's return surpasses Wales forward Gareth Bale's £85m move to Real Madrid in 2013 as the biggest transfer deal in history.

Following Sunday's Community Shield, which United won 2-1 against Leicester, manager Jose Mourinho said he was "waiting with open arms" for Pogba.

"He comes because he knows the club, knows the city, many of the players and wants to be an important part of the project," he added.

"Football is crazy and the market has become crazy. What you think this season is crazy, you realise three years later it's not crazy any more.

"What is expensive and not expensive in football? I don't know any more. I just know he is a big player."

Pogba, who helped France reach the Euro 2016 final, has won the Serie A title in each of his four seasons at Juventus.

He is Mourinho's fourth signing at United, after Ivory Coast defender Eric Bailly, former Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Armenia forward Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

It will be the first time in 20 years an English club will have paid a world record fee - when England striker Alan Shearer joined Newcastle United from Blackburn Rovers for £15m.

Pogba joined United from French club Le Havre in 2009 as a 16-year-old, but made just a handful of appearances before his contract expired in July 2012.

He has made 178 appearances for Juventus, scoring 34 goals, and helped the club reach the 2015 Champions League final. The Serie A side had offered him a new contract, while Real Madrid were also interested in signing him.

Why did Pogba leave Manchester United?

Pogba claimed he left the club "frustrated" and "disgusted" because former manager Sir Alex Ferguson did not play him.

Ferguson said he "distrusted" Pogba's agent, Mino Raiola, and alleged an agreement with Juventus had already been made.

Jese: Paris St-Germain sign Real Madrid forward

He will link up with former Sevilla boss Unai Emery, who succeeded Laurent Blanc as PSG manager in June.

"It will be a great pleasure to work under the direction of Unai Emery, who has developed an excellent reputation," Jese told the PSG website.

Rio 2016: Nigeria's Olympic footballers late as plane 'too small'

Nigeria's Olympic football team will arrive just hours before their opening Rio 2016 match after being delayed because their plane was too small.

They had already been held up in Atlanta, USA, because of a problem with the payment for their flight.

"The players were uncomfortable with the size of the plane," team media officer Timi Ebikagboro told BBC Sport.

He said they would leave on a bigger plane and arrive in time for kick-off against Japan (01:00 GMT Friday).

"The [Nigerian] government stepped in," he added.

"The players have been assured of adequate medical care on the plane. It's been challenging but most importantly we will be ready for the first game."

Their flight is set to depart at 1200GMT for the seven-hour flight to Manaus, where their Group B opener kicks off just 13 hours later.

The squad had originally been stranded in Atlanta because of a problem that seemed to be caused by money having to go through different bank accounts and currency conversions.

"The money paid by the [sports] ministry for the charter flight did not hit airline's account on Tuesday so they refused to fly the team to Brazil," a source close to the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) said.

"It is a cumbersome exercise but they should have started the process much earlier, which NFF was pointing out. This issue has nothing to do with the NFF," the source explained to BBC Sport.

One of the players explained to the BBC on Wednesday: "We've been told to get ready to fly out in few hours but that's been the story since last week."

Nigeria, who are in Group B of the Rio Games alongside Sweden, Colombia and Japan, boast a proud Olympic record.

In 1996, they became the first African and non-European or South American team to win the gold medal.

They also finished runners-up at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, where current under-23 coach Siasia also coached the 'Dream Team' in China.

"Jeremy was operated on under local anaesthesia on Wednesday night to sew up his ear," Bordeaux said.

"We wish a speedy recovery to our player and hope to see him back soon."

Gabon international Ndong said: "I apologise to Jeremy Menez, and to Bordeaux, and hope to see him back in Ligue 1 action soon.
