AC Milan has had a lot of success under Berlusconi; in his two tenures (1986-2004 and 2006-), the Rossonieri have done well. Whether the Italian people have prospered with him as prime minister is another matter.
But none of that concerns UF today. We're more interested in how the 18-year-old girls of Italy are doing under his tutelage. Are their needs being met? Are they looked after, loved, cared for?
With one story that broke today, we might well find out. One thing's for certain: his wife isn't very pleased.
(mildly NSFW pic below... just some lingerie)
So Silvio, with his busy schedule of AC board meetings and running the country without conflict of interest, has been a little absent at home, missing his own childrens' birthday parties here and there, but he found time in his hectic life to attend the 18th birthday party for the daughter of a family friend, who also happens to be a lingerie model. Yeah -- and he bought her a gold necklace and gave her a signed picture of himself. A signed fucking picture! Of himself!
The girl, Noemi Letizia (pictured above with necklace and below with no clothes), sees nothing wrong with this: 'It was a lovely surprise to see the man I call Papi (daddy) at my party. I call him Papi but of course he is second to my father. He gave me a lovely necklace as a present.'
Yep, nothing wrong with this relationship whatsoever. Just an attractive young woman who enjoys being semi-naked, and her "little daddy teacher."
On her bedside table was prominently displayed a signed photograph of Berlusconi as well as a book in which he had written a dedication to her saying: 'To my little Noemi, my little graphic artist, your little daddy teacher.'"
But it gets better.
The article also documents Berlusconi's latest scheme to revive his popularity, something so brilliant that it's incredible no-one thought of it sooner (or at least parodied it): picking attractive young women to be politicians! After all, what's better: someone with tons of policy experience, or someone who's lovely to look at?
Send supermodels to Iraq, Mr. Berlusconi. Sure, some of 'em will get beheaded for their sins, but a few just might be able to broker a truce if they flash a little bit of chest. After all, it's part of his plan to put out "youthful young faces" in June's European elections.
He's earmarked (and possibly bum-marked) the following, none of whom have any political experience, and might struggle even to spell the word:
- soap actress Camilla Ferranti, 30
- TV star Eleonora Gaggioli, 29
- ex-Big Brother contestant Angela Sozio, 31
- former Miss Italy candidate Barbera Matera, 28.
(pictures of all of 'em in that article)
That's where his wife, Veronica Lario, chimed in via email:"Someone wrote that all this is to sustain the enjoyment of the Emperor. I agree with this - what has emerged is shameful trash, all in the name of power. I want it to be made clear that my children and I are victims of this situation and do not agree with it, we have to put up with it and suffer with it."
Veronica and Silvio have had spats in the past, but always managed to kiss and make up.
Personally, I just can't wait to see what pisses her off next time.

Silvio Berlusconi's trending younger these days

#5 Magazine: more tits than the Stretford End at Old Trafford
Rio Ferdinand is a man of proud, keen business acumen. Having carefully observed the slow death of publishing, he's decided to get into the magazine game, albeit blowing his money in the online world instead of daring to put ink to paper.
After all, if The Players' Club and Gene Simmons' Tongue can work (and I use the term "work" very loosely), then why can't Rio's rag, the intriguingly/stupidly named #5?
After the jump, the first piece of pictorial evidence that Rio might have a fighting chance.
Her name is Francoise Boufhal, and this exotic beauty hails from... Newcastle? She's been looking for lingerie work, but tragically, has been told that she's too curvy.
Good that Rio wasn't about to make the same error.
Francoise's tale is full of triumph over adversity: "When I reached about 16 I stopped doing theatre and TV because every casting I went to I got knocked back for having such an unusual figure for such a young woman.
I'm a 28H. Everything I went to I was told I was too glamorous and no one knew where to put me in things. I went on a quest for a lingerie job but my bust was too big for that even. I was offered loads of work but it was all to go topless and that was not what I wanted to do. It was so frustrating, but it made me even more determined to be known for who I was rather than just my looks.
I thought no matter how many times you knock me back, I'll keep going and sooner or later something will come along I'll be good for."
Get in, Francoise! With Rio's clumsy foray into magazines (or, as the header puts it, "a digital lifestyle magazine... (featuring) exclusive interviews and videos with true icons from the worlds of sport, music, and drama"), she'll be famous in no time.
Until #5 closes down, that is.

Arsenal's Got Your Hardware Right Here
As some Spurs fans are keen to point out, Spurs won a "trophy" this year. If Spurs are going to count the Worthlessingcarleague Cup, than Arsenal are surely entitled to count Lady Gunners' trophies. (Oh, and also the Arsenal Cup!)
That's right, the Arsenal Ladies -- who have already won the league title -- won the Woman's FA Cup 4-1 today to secure the domestic double for the third year in a row. This makes for 29 trophies in 16 years. Surely the kind of dominant performance that Wenger and the Male Gunners should emulate. (If I were Daulerio, I would have a pithy joke about balls to throw in here.)
And Flamini is sure that he really wants to leave Arsenal for Meelan?
