Today I found out the origin of the word “soccer”. For all you out there who love to complain when Americans, and certain others, call “Football”, “Soccer”, you should know that it was the British that invented the word and it was also one of the first names of what we now primarily know of as “Football”.

In fact, in the early days of the sport among the upper echelons of British society, the proper term for the sport was “Soccer”. Not only that, but the sport being referred to as “Soccer” preceded the first recorded instance of it being called by the singular word “Football” by about 18 years. This happening when it became more popular with the middle and lower class. When that happened, the term “Football” gradually began dominating over “Soccer” and the then official name “Association Football”. Read more about Soccer.

Desperate Housewives Eva Longoria is in a hurry in the French capital. While visiting Paris purely private in nature, despite that Eva besieges both fans and paparazzi between buying things it looks that this doesn’t disturb her.

I also found several pictures where Eva Longoria plays beach volleyball in sexy undershirt and bikini. Eva certainly shows her talent for sport on the sand and her physique is amazing.

Oscar winner actress-singer Jennifer Hudson stunned Super Bowl fans with a heart-rending comeback performance in Miami.

This was Jennifer’s first performance. She was dressed in a military-style jacket, white top and gold jewellery and received a rapturous applause.

Jennifer sang the song confidently and the crowd looked on stunned. She will also perform at the Grammy’s on February 8. She is nominated for four awards.

Maybe Jennifer brought some luck to Pittsburgh Steelers, because they managed to win their sixth Super Bowl title.

When the Steelers last won the Super Bowl in 2006, thousands of fans celebrated in the streets.

Yesterday, we were witnessing the same thing in the Strip District, another popular area with bars and restaurants, several streets were barricaded before the game began.

AnnaLynne McCord showed off her athletic side while playing on the beach in Miami, Florida.

Chatting on her cell phone, the “90210” hottie was spotted showing off her bikini body as she soaked up the sun in a black two-piece swimsuit – nearly losing her bikini top before making a nice save.

The “90210” cutie appeared to be gearing up for the NFL playoffs as she tossed the football around with her beau after getting in a little tanning time.

Miss McCord also managed to fit in a refreshing dip in the ocean and an attempt at building a sand castle before chowing down on a greasy cheeseburger.

AnnaLynne spent her New Year’s Eve hosting a big bash at B.E.D. nightclub alongside gal pal Ashley Greene.

With one party not being enough, the 21-year-old beauty also paid a visit to SkyBar at Shore, where she boogied down all night long alongside fellow celebrity guests including Gerard Butler, Jared Leto and Kristin Cavallari.
