Tabloid Special!! WAGs line-up!

Now that the world-famous WAGs have packed their branded bags and gone home, I've decided to do my own WAGs feature. No, not the French, Italian, German and Portuguese WAGs who remain at the World Cup, even though some of them are really gorgeous.

Tennis WAGs.

I suppose there must be tabloids somewhere out there which care about the tennis WAGs but I don't recall reading of them behaving outrageously or whatever, although I'm sure they can have wardrobes full of Gucci and Prada if they choose to.

Here are some of them.

The tennis-player WAGs of tennis players:

Top left-Mrs Andre Agassi, Steffi Graf, herself a holder of many Grand Slam titles

Bottom-Miroslava Vavrinec, Roger Federer's girlfriend, who used to play on the pro circuit, too

Right-I was surprised to learn that Radek Stepanek's girlfriend is Martina Hingis!

The glamorous ones who could give the soccer WAGs a run for their money:


Top left-Rebecca Cartwright, Australian soap actress, Lleyton Hewitt's wife

Bottom-Camille Nevier, French model, Marcos Baghdatis' girlfriend (pic from here)

Right-Patricia Bartret, model, Juan Carlos Ferrero's girlfriend (picture from here)

And... the loveliest of the lot (I think)... Guillermo Coria's wife, Carla (pic from here):

Even Nadal and Andy Murray have recently turned up with girlfriends in their players' boxes. I can't find nice pictures of their 18-year-old girlfriends. Anyway, 18-year-old girlfriends should stay away from the media spotlight for as long as they can help it. Interestingly, Kimberly Sears, Murray's girlfriend (and daughter of Daniela Hantuchova's coach - you see how everyone is related to everyone??) declined to be made over into a 'pro' WAG a la Coleen McLoughlin (Wayne Rooney's girlfriend). Smart. 18-year-olds should finish their A levels, and whatever it is they do in Spain, first.

On the topic of Nadal (pic from his website) and Murray (pic from Wimbledon website), I think Murray needs some beefing up. He's half Nadal's size. But, to his credit, he did manage to overcome Andy Roddick's high-powered serves, despite his slim frame.
And speaking of tabloids, I saw the section in today's ST entitled 'Inside scoop from ST correspondents'. With great expectations, I read 'Expect Mahathir-Abdullah spat to go on for some time'. Then I read it again. Twice, I asked myself 'Where got inside scoop?'

I read the other articles in the section: 'Yudhoyono's political future linked to state of the economy' (Ya, like, we didn't know that), 'China-India ties growing but many obstacles in the way' (Is this supposed to be ground-breaking news or what??) and 'Thaksin's latest high-stakes gamble', and I'm afraid I did not find any 'inside scoop' there either.

Talk about misleading titles.

True train school

‘Having eyes, but not seeing beauty; having ears, but not hearing music; having minds, but not perceiving truth; having hearts that are never moved and therefore never set on fire. These are the things to fear, said the headmaster.’ How would you like to have such a headmaster? I finally re-read (read it first as a teenager) Totto-chan, The Little Girl at the Window , a ‘school story’ by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi, translated by Dorothy Britton. Totto-chan is the name Tesuko Kuroyanagi called herself, and the book is about her life during her school days at Tomoe Gakuen. Totto-chan was expelled from her first elementary school because of her ‘disruptive’ behaviour, which included constantly opening and closing her desk top (because she was so thrilled by it), ‘vandalising’ her desk (because there wasn’t enough space on the piece of paper to draw) and standing by the classroom window waiting for street musicians to pass by or talking to swallows. Her mother, although probably alarmed about the ...

The Secret Romantic Guesthouse (2023)

The title has an airy, genial feel and the show does have its airy, genial side, but I also think of it as TRAPPED, since everyone was trapped by the past.   It was fun trying to figure out who was who, who was on whose side and how the awful king would fall.   The scholars It wasn’t too hard to guess that Kang San (Ryeo Un) is the deposed/missing prince and that he isn’t really gruff and disinterested although he’s exasperated and rolling his eyes most of the time.  Shi-yeol (Kang Hoon) has the best ‘disguise’, with the nice contrast between his highly-skilled fighting and loyalty versus his silliness.  It felt at times that Yoo-ha (Jung Gun-joo) was an extra but finally, he gets that one brave act of letting himself be captured to protect the rest.   Shi-yeol identifying himself to Kang San as his watchman was dramatic but the most shocking revelation in the show was that the Old Guy (Shi-yeol’s mentor) is the king’s watchman!  Ho...

Be Melodramatic! (2019)

An entertaining look at the media world, although the plot and acting (thankfully) weren’t melodramatic! There was some drama over relationships but overall, ‘good friends’ is the prevailing vibe and at the end, you almost want to shout  友谊万岁   (friendship forever). all their living room chats and meals; Eun-jung's brother's home garb and robes! There is also Eun-jung’s other friend, who is a gem, so for me, this show is mainly about friendship.   It is wonderful how everyone moves in because they are concerned for Eun-jung (Jeon Yeo-been). Her grief and healing are movingly portrayed, and Yeo-been’s acting and Eun-jung’s storyline eclipsed that of the main character.  Eun-jung is beautiful, smart and tragic.   heartbreak she gets along so well with her cameraman Han-joo (Han Ji-eun – Ae-wol !) is cute, smart and tragic.  They both work responsibly and seriously, treat others with respect and deserve the success and opportunities that come th...
