Serena Williams has revealed she has a rapper boyfriend but their arrangement is loose.

Speaking to The Telegraph in London about her new memoir, Williams said her boyfriend is the rapper and actor Common. “He does his thing; I do mine. Maybe we’ll meet somewhere in between,” she said, with her interviewer noting she lacked “enthusiasm”.

Williams, who is facing a fine and possible ban from the Australian Open over an on-court outburst to a line umpire, has penned her autobiography titled Queen Of The Court, published by Simon & Schuster.

Of the incident, where she threatened to shove a ball down the umpire’s throat and used the F-word, she said: “I was 100 per cent, unequivocally wrong. It was absolutely not professional. I didn’t react correctly. Spiritually. I let myself down and I have apologised to her. I’m not perfect. I’ll make another mistake – as you will – but making the same mistake isn’t cool. I’ve learnt a lot from that experience.”

Williams had always wanted to have children by the age of 30, she said, noting that since she was not near that goal and had reached 28, “I need to come up with a plan B”.

Tennis and Williams will not go on and on. She said: “I can’t play tennis for ever. It will be someone else’s turn. Someone bigger and better. When that happens, I don’t want to sit at home one day and look at Venus across the couch and be, like, what next? So I have a back-up plan.”

David Beckham’s LA Galaxy experiment has been pronounced one of the 10 biggest US sporting flops of all time.

Maxim men’s magazine said of the British star’s stateside sojourn: “Three seasons into what was supposed to be the magic bullet that finally made soccer relevant (i.e. profitable, interesting, televised) in the US, David Beckham’s much publicised move to [Major League Soccer] and his grotesquely huge contract are nothing short of a catastrophe.”

The former Manchester United star’s move over to play for the Galaxy cost £125 million and was plugged as the answer to soccer in the US.

But since transplanting himself and his celebrity wife and three sons to LA, Beckham has not managed to stop playing in Europe and sufficiently focus on his US commitment. The move got off to a very inauspicious start when serious injury put him out of action even before he got started.

Beckham was recently confronted by angry fans who see his part-time move to AC Milan as proof positive of the failed relationship.

Tennis legend Chris Evert’s ex-husband has said that her split from golfing ace Greg Norman was inevitable – and likened the pair to “alpha dogs going at it”.

Evert’s ex, Olympic skiing champion Andy Mill, has hit out at the “trail of destruction” that the two sporting greats reportedly left behind, when they ditched their respective spouses and became lovers.

Mill said he was devastated when former Wimbledon favourite Evert – the mother of his three children – broke off their 18-year marriage and left him for his then best friend Norman.

“I cried routinely for close to three years,” said the 55-year-old, who blames Norman for his heartbreak.

Florida-based Norman and Evert, who got together in 2006, last week announced they had separated. A statement released on Friday said they “will remain friends and supportive of one another’s family”.

The shock split comes just 15 months after they tied the knot in a romantic sunset ceremony on Paradise Island, in the Bahamas.

Mill said he is not surprised his ex-wife’s marriage has crumbled. “Nothing surprises me with those two. Look at the trail of destruction they left behind them for this fling.”

Comparing Evert and Norman to “two alpha dogs going at it”, Mill said divorce was inevitable for the pair.

Meanwhile, Evert has laughed off concerns over her well-being, emphatically insisting that she is “fine”.

The Oscar-winning actress has revealed she loves taking mixed martial arts (MMA) classes and has an ‘inner ninja’.

Connelly, 38, started taking MMA classes after watching her husband, Brit actor Paul Bettany, 38, training for a new action film role.

She said: “I’ve taken on mixed martial arts. My husband is doing an action film so he’s been doing some martial arts, I thought it looked like fun so I gave it a try.

“What happened was I threw my first punch and I heard that really loud crack as my fist hit the pad and I got this huge smile on my face.

“I was a little embarrassed and frankly confused that hitting something was bringing me so much pleasure.”

Jennifer – who will next be heard voicing a character in the animated action film 9 – said she has come to terms with her violent urges: “I’ve discovered that inside this mild-mannered woman beats the heart of a ruthless ninja. It’s brought something out of me – now I’m feeling a little nervous and I realise I want to punch your face.”

Tennis superstar Roger Federer is now off life’s singles draw – he has just married longtime girlfriend Mirka Vavrinec.

The 13-times Grand Slam winner wed the former WTA tennis player in his hometown of Basel, in Switzerland, in an intimate ceremony over the Easter weekend.

It comes a month after he announced they are expecting their first child together this summer.

Federer broke news of the wedding on the blog of his official website.

He wrote on Saturday: “Earlier today, in my hometown of Basel, surrounded by a small group of close friends and family, Mirka and I got married.

“It was a beautiful spring day and an incredibly joyous occasion. Mr and Mrs Roger Federer wish all of you a Happy Easter weekend.”

The couple met when they both represented Switzerland in the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

The recent controversy involving Michael Phelps’ use of pot should teach him a lesson even if he is not going to be charged for such bad behavior. Richland County Sheriff Leon Lett said they have investigated the matter and found no evidence to pin Phelps with any charge. Phelps, who has fourteen Olympic gold medals, is considered a youth model but his recent indiscretion has backlashed on his career not only as a swimmer but even as a product endorser. Phelps already apologized for his behavior but Kellogg’s has already dropped him as their official endorser. Subway also dropped Phelps from their website but said they are still willing to work with him.

He was also suspended by the USA Swimming for three months for his behavior and is not allowed to compete within this period. Lett said something should come out positive from this incident and Phelps agrees with this. He said this incident should not only teach Phelps a lesson but also parents who should take the opportunity to discuss illegal drug use with their children. It isn’t a lost cause for Phelps though because most of his advertisers are standing by him including Speedo.

TV actress Angie Harmon, from Women’s Murder Club, recently gave birth to her third baby with hubby and former NFL player Jason Sehorn.

Yay! More kids = More Love!

Harmon and Sehorn welcomed their third daughter into the world.

If they already have 2 girls, I wonder if they were hoping for a boy. Because, hello, their father is a NFL player, I’m pretty sure he wants someone to follow his footsteps.

According to the couple’s rep, they had “a healthy baby girl.”

Their new daughter is joining older sisters Avery Grace, 3, and Finely Faith, 5.

So, what do you think the couple named their daughter?

You can breathe a sigh of relief, as the name is actually NORMAL.

It’s Emery Hope Sehorn

Congrats!

Hi Amanda! Do you think that Michael Phelps is a sexy stud?

The human shark, Michael Phelps himself denied being a sex symbol.

Michael Phelps did not just become the talk of the town, but he became the talk of the globe by winning a record breaking eight gold medals in a single Olympics at Beijing Olympics 2008.And he is definitely here to stay for long.

After his shot to fame, Phelps definitely remained on the front page, but now he returned to pool again.

Michael Phelps, 23, narrated his experience of returning to the pool as “painful”. He talked to the audience while revealing his new series of Kellogg’s cereal boxes about his experience, “I’m a little out of shape. But I will be able to get back. I am going to start working out more”.

At the moment, the star swimmer is busy with his newly minted Michael Phelps Foundation (an organization to promote youth swimming).

What is your opinion? Is he a sex symbol or just a swimming promotion geek?

Jennifer Lopez ditched out of the Project Runway finale reportedly due to a foot injury but that sure didn’t keep her from competing in a triathlon. The singer/actress participated in the Nautica Malibu Triathlon last weekend and raised $127,000 for the Children’s Hospital of LA. And if that wasn’t exhausting enough, JLo then hopped on a plane and flew with her hubby Marc Anthony to celebrate his birthday at a star-studded party in New York City. If she knew she was running a triathlon the morning before the party, shouldn’t she have just made arrangements for an LA party instead of one in NYC?

As earlier reported, Olympic Gold medalist, Brendan Hansen, had his gold medal “stolen” from him while flying back home this week.
Hansen won his gold medal in the 400 medley relay with Michael Phelps.
Good news for the gold medalist, the medal has been found!
Lucky for him a passenger found his medal and turned it in to the authorities. Although this is a bit of good news, I can’t help but wonder as to how he found where the medal was and how it got there in the first place.
In the end, what matters is that he got his medal back. Right?
Could it be possible that someone was showing off his medal?

It remains a mystery question: Whether David Beckham has more fans or Victoria Beckham? David Beckham is a hot soccer sensation and Victoria is a fabulous fashion figure, but together they are one of the hottest couples on the God’s green Earth.

The exquisite looking “Spice Girl” Victoria Beckham has recently launched her latest fragrance “Signature” in Manchester.

The Beckhams are living in USA for the past sometime but they are not away from England as well. They keep on visiting their motherland at regular intervals.

She mingled up with her fans, gave autographs and posed for the photographers while she was sporting a sleeveless white dress with a pair of gleaming silver heels.

Is Hilary Duff engaged? The singer/actress had dinner with her boyfriend, hockey player Mike Comrie, at paparazzi hot spot Il Sole last weekend. On her way out, the original Disney tween sensation made a point of raising her hand and flashing a ring on her engagement finger. Is that just a token of affection, a promise ring or the real deal? Is there a wedding in the near future for the Duffster? How long have they been together again? She’s still pretty young. I hope she’s not taking it too fast too soon. If they are engaged this young, maybe there’s a greater reason out there – like a pregnancy maybe.
