Weekend Video: Shooting championship plays Borat parody as Kazakhstan national anthem

The Arab Shooting Championship in Kuwait made the mistake of playing the Kazakhstan National Anthem parody from Borat. The event organizers played the song off of Youtube and what ensued only could have been matched with Sacha Baron Cohen spilling Kim Jong Il’s ashes over Ryan Seacrest. The Kazakhstan team was so enraged and demanded an apology from event organizers, but that didn’t stop the video from being posted on Youtube.

FC Barcelona player to dump Shakira or leave team

Shakira’s hips have gotten FC Barcelona soccer player Gerard Piqué into trouble. Head coach Pep Guardiola believes Shakira is a distraction to Piqué, and it is affecting his play… so much so that Guardiola is threatening to leave the team unless Piqué ends things with Shakira or is traded.

Piqué has been linked to the Colombian singer since last March and is accused of being late to practice and missing team meetings. The centre back was even photographed white water rafting, which is an activity banned by FC Barcelona.

But Shakira’s interferance just doesn’t stop with FC Barcelona, rival soccer team Real Madrid has banned Shakira’s music. Real Madrid’s Santiago Bernabéu Stadium used to have Shakira’s music on their pre-match playlist, but the songs have been pulled.
