We are the luckiest enthusiasts in the world.
Disagreeing with one another has become sport in these fractured days. Folk entrenching in this or that position, digging in deep, throwing grenades at others entrenched in that or this position. Becoming angry. Becoming filled with rage and uttering statements of disbelief at dinner parties amongst likeminded friends about various family members or co-workers and their idiocy for thinking unapproved things.
Tense.
Thankfully, though, the entire world can agree that Shakira is a wonderful example of how to be beautiful and healthy and move through life’s ups and downs.
And you recall, the chanteuse’s relationship drama recently became very public as her partner of many years, footballer Girard Pique, was alleged to have cheated.
How did Shakira respond? By turning that frown upside down and going surfing, of course.
Instantly, she became a surf darling. The modern face of our beloved pastime.
One, though, is the loneliest number so the universe has provided a wonderfully masculine counterpart in songbird Ricky Martin.
The multi-platinum recording artist just took his sons surfing and lovingly penned, “¡Tremendo día de playa! Empieza para mis hijos mayores su semana de cumpleaños. Gracias a mi hermano Alecs por la buena vibra del día y enseñarle a Matteo y Valentino a jugar con las olas @lipsmacksurf Soy el padre más afortunado del mundo. #prouddad #Surfing #surfingislife”
In English it reads, “Great day at the beach! It begins for my older children their birthday week. Thanks to my brother Alecs for the good vibes of the day and teaching Matteo and Valentino how to play with the waves @lipsmacksurf I’m the luckiest dad in the world. #prouddad #Surfing #surfingislife.”
Ricky and Shakira.
I can just see the cinematic retelling of a great love story. Shakira mending heart. Ricky building family bonds. The two meeting out in the lineup, singing songs about surfing, healing the world.
Erasing divisions.
La vida loca.
Easy… Easy… now surf culture is toxic? I’ve got an idea go confront a group of surfers and share your grieving….you dummies
Why are all surf press writers utterly, incomprehensibly obtuse? Like fucking seriously; every single one of you mother fuckers writes like an extraterrestrial teaching English to other extraterrestrials.
James in the divisive, absolutist world we currently live in, THIS is a breath of fresh air and requires a intellectual’s interpretive skills(or beatnik mindset) to understand what is truly being written on this site. You’ll get there if you are capable of slow rolling your read brah!
I think this was misreported. The nephew was involved in private
fine assFINANCE and made a bid to Ricky to get involved in family
wankingBANKING. Ricky eventually PULLED OUT because he felt he wasn’t getting enoughincestINTEREST.THIS!
There is a musical here for sure – “Sewerage” starring Shakira and Matin as star crossed Vals negotiating the pitfalls of all that is “surf'”!!
Ricky apparently loves his new board. According to him; “She Bangs.” He’s got a semi-secret outer reef spot called ‘La Bomba’ and is so confident in his dedicated athletic abilities that he’s given himself the nickname ‘The Martin’.
Don’t forget cocaine. Buy here.

every day I get my cue
so i tripped over here after reading a bunch of Oli-Newt John tributes…here’s a pic to end all rumors…she partied like it was 1999…with the greatist single
drummerthumper of all time…a truly odd couple…https://townsquare.media/site/295/f…I wonder who was holding the eight ball?
ahroom lagie fron TGUF’s
Ouch.
With names like MATteo and VALentino it looks like one will end up as a boogie boarder, and the other will ride stand-up, but with a shitty wide legged poo stance for life…
I need to remember to thank my parents for not naming me Valentino next time I speak with them
Pretty sure I read recently that Ricky Martin had a incestual relationship with his male cousin
I think it was nephew who recanted.
A real cunt.
Is that a euphemism I should be aware of or does it fall under the category of don’t ask?
