The old "celeb can't take eyes off cheerleader" crap again:

What would Kim say? Kanye West can't tear his eyes away from a curvy cheerleader at basketball game... as he cuddles up to Kardashian's best friend

Fehintola Betiku doesn't let the fact that in every photo Kanye West and Ben Stiller look totally disinterested get in the way of a good piece of filler.

That could equally well go into the 'You Had To Be There' thread.

Someone should have told her that fanny means modesty in England.

They've now changed the headline - someone must have pointed out that with land border there's really no need to go cruising anywhere. Thick bastards.

I think they really need to be careful about this one. This is on their home page. Wording is very important. Surely you should remain a "suspect" before any trial.

Good grief. The Transport Police have now eliminated that man from their enquiries. Good job no newspaper website labelled him a 'sex attacker', eh?

That was very quick, if it was just her word against his.

It took them 3 months to release it and 3 hours to withdraw it. :roll:

Ffs I bet we still end up hearing about him being beaten up now he's been outed as a sex pest.

I do hope lawyers are beating a path to his door.

The story isn't really about his death, but the value of his house, and about his daughters. Oh, and Harry.
