Wrestling101.com interview

Interview0 Comments

Snuka gives his thoughts on his rivalry with Backlund:

I’m not a glory guy or anything like that but it was such a great pleasure for me to wrestle Bob Backlund the champion at the time. He was such an awesome guy and such a great champion and it was such a privilege to be able to wrestle him so early on in my WWF career in a title match at Madison Square Garden. Jumping off the cage at the Garden you couldn’t even hear yourself, I loved it so much, things like that just stick in your heart.

I am a Beyonce fan. I’m gonna watch her upcoming documentary because fortunately one of the TVs in our kitchen has closed captioning so I’ll be able to understand what she says. You know Beyonce can’t talk. She sounds like she has a fifth grade education.

Well, this character of Jack, Big Jack Begosian, he’s, as you find him in the beginning of the film, he’s a radio talk show host in Toronto, and the show is called “The Truth.” He’s basically trying to bring attention to situations around the world or in society that are untruthful and need to be busted on.

Intends to stay in Guatemala

Makes Statement0 Comments

McAfee says he plans to settle down in Guatemala.

I have a passport. I am in no trouble with the U.S. I can return any time I like. I have been back to America many times since I have been in Belize. I have no interest of going this month or next but … I can come and go freely to America any time I want. I am not concerned because I have not been charged with a crime, so there is no basis for extradition. No one has blamed me for the murder. I have not been charged, I am not a suspect…They merely want to question me…I like Guatemala. I think the legal system in Guatemala is superior to the legal system in Belize.

Belizean police:

He’s really gone out of his way to make the country look bad, and we just believe he should, if he’s innocent as he’s saying he is, he should bring in his lawyer, and let’s get to the bottom of this and say what he needs to say and let’s move on.

Claims he faked photo info

Makes Statement0 Comments

McAfee claims he manipulated the Vice photo info.

I openly apologize to Vice Magazine for manipulating their recently published photo… I, for my own safety, manipulated the xif data on the image taken from my cellphone, and created a fake emergency so that the urgency of movement led, as I knew it would, to the hasty posting on their website. I felt that our tenuous situation demanded action, and that was the action that I chose.

Magazine Cover0 Comments

Brown appears on the cover of the December 2012/January 2013 issue of XXL magazine. He talks about his twitter account, the beginning, and his love life.

One thing people often want me to talk about is my public love life. When it comes to my love life, the perception seems as though I am a player. But that’s not true. Love is something I am still learning. It’s just an obstacle that I haven’t yet mastered. I think that’s my biggest hurdle in life.

You know, very successful, smart actors. And they were like: ‘Grind it. If you love it, grind it.’ I did. They said: ‘And a lot of people who didn’t grind it, it’s not that they’re not in a good place, but I’m in a better place.’

California Style cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

Blunt appears on the cover of the December 2012 issue of California Style magazine. She talks about filming an action movie and her childhood stutter.

I had a really bad stutter as a kid, and the thing that got me out of it was to imagine I was someone else—to take on a new identity via silly voice or by mimicking. It was the only way I could speak fluently. Kids found it funny, and I can understand. There’s a frankness to the way they say, ‘What’s wrong with you? Why can’t you just say it?’

Flare cover

Magazine Cover0 Comments

Knightley appears on the cover of the December 2012 issue of Flare magazine. She talks about Anna Karenina, playing Anna, and growing up in the public eye.

When I was very young, I was hounded by these hideous men. What they wanted was the picture of me falling out of the club. They weren’t going to get that out of me. No, I chose very, very deliberately not to, because I couldn’t bear the idea of giving in to them. It takes a stubbornness.
