Right Said Fred SPEAK OUT on Taylor Swift I’m Too Sexy sample in Look What You Made Me Do


RIGHT SAID FRED have responded to Taylor Swift’s surprising use of their song I’m Too Sexy in her own new single.
The bizarre interpolation comes in Swift’s Look What You Made Me Do – which came out last night.
Fred Fairbrass, Richard Fairbrass and Rob Manzoli are credited alongside Swift and Jack Antonoff on the track, destined to become a global No1.
Taking to Twitter, the group praised the unlikely move.
“Thank you @taylorswift13 [love heart],” they wrote. “What a marvellous reinvention!”

McGregor Mayweather: Fight is a JOKE and should NOT count as Floyd Mayweather’s 50-0




FLOYD MAYWEATHER will, in all likelihood, log his 50th professional win by beating Conor McGregor on Saturday, achieving something many thought he never would.
When Mayweather retired for the second time after beating Andre Berto in an unspectacular but dominant win over the fellow American, it looked as though he would never achieve that 50-0 landmark.
Of course, the difference between going 49 fights and 50 fights unbeaten is minimal – both are remarkable records and few will fail to count Mayweather among the best boxers of all time because of it.
However, “Pretty Boy” is tarnishing his record with a gimmicky bout against UFC star McGregor and living up to his latter nickname – “Money” – rather than his former one.
It may be that is exactly as Mayweather wishes.

Rough Night review: A lacklustre comedy in which a hen party winds up with a corpse

DOES anyone remember the 1980s farce Weekend At Bernie’s?
It seems to have been a big source of inspiration for Rough Night, a lacklustre comedy in which a raucous hen party winds up with an inconvenient corpse.
Politician and blushing bride-to-be Jess (Scarlett Johansson) is promised the best weekend of her life when she heads to a hen party in Miami organised by close friend Alice (Jillian Bell).
Everything is going to plan until the accidental death of stripper Jay (Ryan Cooper) and the moral dilemma of what to do with his body.
The talented cast includes Kate McKinnon as wacky Aussie buddy Pippa but like most of them she struggles to raise many laughs from a screenplay that often feels as lifeless as that hapless stripper.

Samsung heir Lee Jae-yong jailed for corruption

Lee Jae-yong, vice chairman of Samsung Electronics, leaves after his verdict at the Seoul Central District Court on 25 August 2017 in Seoul, South Korea

The de facto boss of the world’s largest smartphone maker is convicted of bribery in South Korea.
A court in South Korea has sentenced Samsung’s billionaire heir-apparent Lee Jae-yong to five years in prison for corruption.
Mr Lee was convicted of bribery in a scandal that also saw the impeachment of South Korea’s former president.
The case has gripped the public amid growing anger against South Korea’s biggest companies, known as chaebols.
Mr Lee, who denied all charges, had faced a jail sentence of up to 12 years.
Also known as Jay Y Lee, the de facto head of the world’s largest smartphone maker had been detained since February on a string of corruption charges.
These included bribery, embezzlement and hiding assets overseas.
What did he do?
