Rihanna is not really angry about Chris Brown beating her up. It’s sad, but true. Following a period of contention and awkwardness after this very unfortunate and disturbing incident in 2009, Rihanna and Brown started talking again. Heck, there’s even been chatter that Rihanna and Chris Brown are back together, which is just gross and depressing to think about. But just because Rihanna is pretty much over the time her ex-boyfriend turned her face into a punching bag doesn’t mean that she wants Brown to bring this ugly topic back up for public consumption. And yet that’s exactly what the…

Manchester United have agreed to sign Benfica’s Swedish international centre-back Victor Lindelof, pending the 22-year-old agreeing personal terms. The deal is also subject to a medical and international clearance.

Benfica had to be nigh-on perfect to reel in bitter city rivals Sporting Lisbon and, after Lindelof’s introduction against Moreirense on Jan. 31, the Eagles won 14 of their remaining 15 games to clinch a titanic title race by two points. Here are five things you should know…
It probably deserved more of a fuss, but with one line on the Premier League’s retained and released list, Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s Manchester United career was over. For now, at least. The Swedish forward will be a free agent when his contract expires on June 30. He has accepted an offer from the club to complete his recovery from a knee injury at the Carrington training complex, and, indeed, there remains a possibility he could re-sign once fit, but that’s a long shot. The truth is that it did not make economic sense to renew Ibrahimovic’s contract at this point. United…

Swedish minnows Vasteras are set to receive a substantial windfall that will wipe out their debts after Manchester United agreed a deal to sign Benfica centre-back Victor Lindelof. United will reportedly pay around £30.75 million (€35m) for Sweden international Lindelof, 22, and his former club Vasteras, who play in Sweden’s third tier, could now receive a payment in the region of €5m after resolving a dispute with Benfica.

A majority of Swedes responding to a poll in newspaper Aftonbladet say they do not want to see Zlatan Ibrahimovic return to the national team, despite the striker hinting that he may be considering a comeback.

Amber Rose isn’t taking Piers Morgan’s insults lying down. After the model posed naked from the waist down to promote her Slut Walk, the British talk show host reposted the photo, telling her to “put it away, luv.” “I’ll take things misogynistic a–holes say for 500, Alex,” Rose responded.

The annual festival includes speakers, panelists, free breast…
