Luv" and "Make It Rain" -- just plead guilty to tax evasion ... after

'I'll need to order some good wine' - Sir Alex Ferguson looking forward to Mourinho reunion

The Man United manager was happy after seeing his side drawn against
the record all-time European Cup winners, suggesting that he will be
pleased to meet some familiar faces.

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is looking forward to a
reunion with Jose Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo after being drawn
with Real Madrid in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League .


Ronaldo will be making the trip to Old Trafford for the first time
since leaving in a world-record 80 million pound move in 2009, when
the second leg comes around on March 5.
"[It will be a] great opportunity for our fans to see Cristiano again
and also for me to meet up with Jose again - I'll need to order some
good wine," Ferguson said upon seeing his side paired with the record
nine-time Champions League winners.


His outlook was far more positive than his previous attitude towards
Los Blancos, whose pursuit of Ronaldo once prompted him to say,
"Barcelona, have far better morals than Real Madrid will ever have."


The Red Devils will be hoping to do better than rival Manchester City,
which took just one point from the two Group D clashes against
Mourinho's men before crashing out of the competition in the opening
stage.


Madrid and United have not faced each other since the Champions League
quarterfinals in 2004, when a hat trick from magnificent Brazilian
Ronaldo in the second leg at Old Trafford inspired the Spaniards to a
6-5 aggregate victory.

Fire reported at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos

An electrical fire was on Thursday morning reported at the Murtala
Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja, Lagos. An eyewitness said the
fire emanated from some cables, which apparently melted under heat
.This led to a blackout in the airport terminal while fire fighters
deployed swiftly in the affected area to quench the inferno.


The fire fighters were able to put the situation under control while
security men erected a metal barricade around the site. In a separate
incident, a cargo plane blew off the roof of a parking lot at the
airport on Wednesday night, causing damage to some cars.


The extent of damage has yet to be ascertained.

Kim K to Instagram: Don't Mess with My Pics .... OR ELSE!!!

Instagram's problems could get A lot worse ... 'cause the app's #1
user -- Kim Kardashian -- is telling friends she's considering leaving
unless its new policies are drastically revised, ASAP. Instagram has
been under serious fire this week ... after the company announced a
new terms of service policy (T.O.S.) which seemed to give the company
power to sell user photos to outside companies without having to
compensate the user.


Instagram says the widespread interpretation of the policy was simply
not true ... they're not selling user photos ... and apologized for
the "confusing" language. Instagram says it's revising the wording and
will release a new TOS in the near future. But Kim K isn't convinced
... at least not yet ... and is telling friends she's thinking about
shutting down her Instagram account, going to a rival photo-posting
company ... and taking ALL OF HER FOLLOWERS WITH HER. It's a big deal
... considering KK has the most followers of any Instagram user at
5,726,343 ... way past Justin Bieber (4,366,729) and President Barack
Obama (1,834,079). Plus, if Kim goes ... her family members could
follow ... and Khloe, Kylie, Kendall and Rob are also in the Top 10
most followed on the site.


One source close to Kim told source the reality star is planning on
waiting to see the revised  T.O.S. before she makes her final decision
... but unless she sees some radical changes, she's outtie 5000.

Rihanna slipped into a skimpy bikini body in Barbados

There's no place like home! Rihanna slipped into a skimpy bikini and
hit the pool in Barbados on Wednesday, and she gave us a peek at her
tattoos ... and her amazing body! And it sounds like the 24-year-old
R&B star could use a little time off, as on-again/off-again ex Chris
Brown and his on-again/off-again ex, Karrueche Tran, are reportedly
back together.


"Being single sucks," RiRi tweeted on Tuesday. "The only thing I get
to do anymore is whatever the f*ck I want to do." So does this mean
Chris broke things off just to get back together with Karrueche?
Possibly! "You know what, from what I've always known, she's his
girlfriend," Christina Millian blabbed to Wendy Williams last week.
"And that's where it lies for me. I see everything in the media. I
really don't get into the detail of it, but I think everybody has
their own life and how they deal with things.


They have the right to handle it how they want ... I think they make a
great couple." Sounds like some R&R in the islands is just what the
doctor ordered!


Aint nobody feels sorry for this wh**"l. She got what she deserved.
She wants to act ghetto. Let her get treated ghetto.

Justin, Ashton SWATTER 12 years old

The juvenile who was arrested for phoning in crank 911 calls --
claiming there was gun violence at the homes of Justin Bieber and
Ashton Kutcher -- is only 12 years old ... Y!online has learned.
Sources connected to the boy tell said ... he lives in California with
his mother.  He refuses to go to school and sits at his computer day
and night, communicating with other hackers.  We're told he is
antisocial, preferring the keyboard to personal contact .


Our sources say Children's Services has been to the boy's apartment
multiple times, trying to stabilize the situation, to no avail.  We're
told the mother has virtually checked out.  We're told the family is
"incredibly dysfunctional."Our sources say the boy is smart, but by no
means a Zuckerberg-esque genius.  Still, he was able to evade cops for
months.


We're told law enforcement is sympathetic and steps are afoot to
remove the child from the home and place him in a stable foster
environment.  We're also told authorities are inclined to get the boy
counseling rather than mete out punishment -- i.e., place him on
probation and if he completes his counseling program all charges will
be dismissed.


It's pretty remarkable ... a 12 year old concocted incredible fake
scenarios to fool cops ... telling them gun-toting Russian thugs had
held people in Ashton's house hostage.The L.A. County D.A. has yet to
make a decision on charging the boy with crimes.
