5 World Cup Coaches Who Look Like James Bond Villains!!

Even if you’re not a huge soccer fan, the World Cup still offers many rich sources of entertainment.

The unfamiliar combination of jock couture, lifelong cigarette consumption, gimlet-eyed egomania and crazy foreign haircuts — international soccer coaches tend to look like they should be ensconced in heavily fortified island compounds, preparing to unleash photoplasmic death rays if their demands are not met.

Here are five soccer coaches whose extravagantly evil looks are worthy of an assignment for 007.

Just imagine each of these men saying: “You will now meet your fate, Mr. Bond

1. Pim Verbeek (Australia)


The Dutch specialize in churning out gun-for-hire coaches who end up in far-flung corners of the soccer world.

Not only does he lead Australia’s heavy-booted Socceroos — while they may not beat you, but they’re going to beat you, if you catch our drift — but he has the world-weary mug of a hardened professional who only inflicts pain for business reasons. Plus, there is something very unsettling about the name Pim. :P

2. Diego Maradona (Argentina)



Maradona is not only one of the greatest players of all time, he is also the only one of our choices who lives like a Bond villain in real life.

Does he hang out with Fidel Castro? Sure. Flatten reporters with his Mini Cooper? Done. An extreme, operatic personality, Maradona (below) will either guide a talent-laden Argentina to soccer immortality, or stage one of the most flamboyant flame-outs in World Cup history. Either way, mullets and wolf beards are a go!

3. Dunga (Brazil)



Like Pele, Ronaldo and other beloved legends of Brazil’s patented form of high-art soccer, Dunga (pointing like a madman) uses just one name. And there the resemblance ends.

Known as a tough guy during his playing career, this flat-topped tyrant has stirred controversy by remodeling Brazil’s iconic squad in his own image. In other words, he plans to run his team like it’s in that Rio gun flick “City of God.” (which by the way is a great movie, a must watch)

4. Matjaz Kek (Slovenia)



Besides the fact that “Matjaz Kek” may be the most Bond-villain-y name ever, the dumpling-shaped Slovene capo looks like he should be the figurehead of an extreme and eccentric post-Yugoslavian political movement.

5. Bob Bradley (U.S.)




Stop looking at us! Stop looking at us! We may not have the most glorious soccer pedigree in this country, but we can take pride in producing the most skeletal and unnerving coach in the 2010 World Cup. :P

Bradley’s shorn head, bony countenance and icy, impenetrable concentration-camp-guard stare may serve as one of Team USA’s few built-in competitive advantages, as he will literally freeze the souls of our opponents.

Best Michael Jackson Songs And Performances



I first heard about him when I was around ten.He was coming to India to perform live. I have no idea about that man who he was and what he did. But the only newspaper that I read that time Danik jagran was full of coverage about that. It was kind of shocking for me because there was barely any coverage of any musician by Danik Jagran but this man what they called him King of Pop was all over the page. I was curious about that person and the only channel which I can access at that time was Doordarshan which barely shows anything apart from Hindi music or classical Hindustani music. But I got the glimpse of his show somehow in news and that’s how my love started to the most prolific entertainer ever performed on the cultural stage of world. The first song I heard was Beat it on Hot Tracks on Doordarshan. It was the time our RSS controlled -Vidyamandir was fighting against the western influence but they didn’t realize that boys from their school were dancing on the beats of Micheal Jackson J.He was the most influenced performer world has ever seen. I don’t want to jump into his controversial personal life because everybody does so. He was born for stage not for our messy world. His influence on Indian audience was beyond urban –English speaking population, I guess he is the only non-cricketing foreign personality which is a so well known in India. There is always a constant debate on the depth of his music but for me his music is as meaning full as the music of Frank Sinatra or Bob Dylan. Here is my tribute to my favorite moon-walker. I compiled a list of songs and his performances. Check it out and enjoy the King of Pop

10. Blood on the dance floor (1997)BDFV

A track from his remix album of History. Mixed reviews from critics but who cares. Fans make this album the most selling remix album of all time with 6 million copies. Blood on the dance floor is my favorite from this album. The song is about a woman seduces and kills MJ. This track has all the trademarks of MJ, the ooohing, the grunts, and funky basslines.

9.You Rock my World (2001)YRMWV
The last music creation by MJ which was listed in Top 10, it was very solid comeback from Jacko .He looked like a 23-year lad and the song is a classic disco funk. The video of the song makes it more sizzling, his movements were commendable and his chemistry with Chris Rock was amazing. Rolling Stone described MJ in this video as Colonel Kurtz at the end of Apocalypse Now
.

8.Black or White (1991)BOWV

It’s a racial harmony song by King of Pop. The massage is fantastic and the panther dance sequence has incredible power. MJ showed that he cared about world issue, may be not like other performers but in his unique style. I interpreted this song in this way for MJ it doesn’t matter if his fans are black or white.


7. Man in the Mirror Live @ 1988 GrammyMIMGV

His 1988 Grammy performance of ‘The Way You Make Me Feel & Man in the Mirror’ was one of the most amazing performance I have seen. The difference btw studio version of Man in the Mirror and live version tell us the truth about his live performances.



6. Bad(1987)BV

This song remains one of my favorite of MJ. This song is about proving toughness within. Martin Scorsese directed the video of original song. MJ said that the video for this song is inspired by a true story where a ghetto kid who attended a fancy school was murdered by his friends because he wasn’t “bad” enough.


5. I Want You Back(1970)IWYBV

The biggest hit of his earlier band Jackson 5.His vocal showed the depth in his voice when he was still eight. The earlier dance moves showed why he was considered as a child prodigy. Again the live performance video with all his brothers is a treat to watch.



4.
Don’t Stop Till You Get Enough(1979)DSTEV
Jackson wrote this song. This song suggests that he can be a good lyricist as well J and the chorus said it all “Keep up with the force, don’t stop. Don’t stop ’til you get enough.”First time he used his scream and ouch factor in this song and it was an instant hit at that time.


3. Dangerous(1991)DangV

His live performance MTV music award was simply best. Every movement of his in that video was so rhythmic with music, I sometime felt like he planed dance sequences first than he created the music. Jon Pareles, a writer for The New York Times wrote about this song,”He is a great dancer, yet his songs proclaim a terror of the body and of fleshly pleasures.



2. Beat It(1983)BIV


Beat It was a key track in Jackson’s rise to superstardom. The video of this song was like a short movie in which Jacko use power of music to make peace between two rival groups of gang. Eddie Van Halen starts his guitar solo did the guitar solo for this song for freeJ.This song has enough of everything from pop to hard rock. This song shows MJ as a angry pacifier, his voice and music all supported the same fact in most rhythmic way. Only some songs after Beat It have that much energy what I felt when first time I heard it.

1.Billie Jean (1983)BJV


Billie Jean is the best and brilliant piece of pop music. It’s a musical drama with a great story and distinguishing beats. MJ described her as most charming lady who is out to exploit him. Both sides are equally presented but in the end Billie Jean becomes the sympathetic character. This was the first video with MJ’s signature dance. So it has all the ingredients to be the greatest pop hit ever. MJ knew about the power of this song, check out what he said about this song in his autobiography
Moonwalk,” A musician knows hit material. It has to feel right. Everything has to feel in place. It fulfills you and it makes you feel good. You know it when you hear it. That’s how I felt about ‘Billie Jean.’ I knew it was going to be big while I was writing it. I was really absorbed in that song. One day during a break in a recording session I was riding down the Ventura Freeway with Nelson Hayes, who was working with me at the time. ‘Billie Jean’ was going around in my head and that’s all I was thinking about. We were getting off the freeway when a kid on a motorcycle pulls up to us and says, ‘Your car’s on fire.’ Suddenly we noticed the smoke and pulled over and the whole bottom of the Rolls-Royce was on fire. That kid probably saved our lives. If the car had exploded, we could have been killed. But I was so absorbed by this tune floating in my head that I didn’t even focus on the awful possibilities until later.
