That's crazy, what case is this? There's no way they should not be granted asylum based on these grounds, persecution due to sexual orientation is a widely recognized ground for refugee protection. They can at least be sent to another safe third country. The UK cannot in any circumstance send someone back to where…

There's just so many of these underreported cases around the globe, unfortunately. It's impossible to keep tabs on all of them. I recommend my fellow Jezzies to subscribe to Amnesty urgent actions alert e-mail, this way you can at least sign urgent petitions with just one click.

Her Latin American phase is great, she used to be a cool lyricist. She said though that she had a hard time writing in English and had to use an English-Spanish dictionary to look for possible rhymes... lol

I just can't figure out for the life of me why a Bronx born artist is singing a song for the World Cup in Brazil.

I much prefer these old songs lol. I'm indifferent to Shakira, but she's a better spokesperson than J.Lo. It's just pathetic how J.Lo made a World Cup video...

Actually, when we Brazilians think of Shakira, we remember this:

But Gwynnie needs to come back to planet earth! Or maybe she just needs to shut up.

What a class-act.

Maybe Angelina could take her on a visit to some refugee camps.

Yeah, but in France someone would be in big trouble by saying anti-Semitic statements, that's considered hate speech (John Galliano had to go to court for his horrible statements.) There's nothing of that freedom of speech bullshit. I guess in the 80's things were not as strict but in the 90's for instance they…

Race issues exist all over Europe and I was shocked when I first came here. I had two Spanish roommates and one day they were talking about black people on the streets of London (immigrants recently out of Africa.) One of them was like, "I don't like seeing them", and the other replied, "I don't like seeing them…

One can only hope. Iranian people are generally smart and well-educated.

I've seen him in person actually and he's super nice. I don't know much about his music though.

I've had a MASSIVE crush on him as a teenager. He was like my imaginary boyfriend lol. This video (and also the McCounaughey video) do not disappoint the teenage girl in me.

Wait a second, the man has 8.8 billion and is only ranked #148 among the world's wealthiest?! WTF

I hope they go to West London. This way, maybe I'll run into George Clooney and he'll give up that human rights lawyer for me!! (I'm also a human rights lawyer.) Seriously though, maybe they'll move to a mansion in Richmond, so they can be closer to Brad and Angelina when they're in town.

That's a Fupa:

Yup, that's what he said. I think he might have said that in the Christiane Amanpour interview, sorry cannot remember now. He thought he was the one who was going to be targeted.

Well, she might have become good at giving interviews and speeches and just knew exactly what her message was. A short interview wouldn't be that hard to do.

So there's this NY Times short documentary on her in which (if I'm not mistaken) they ask her father all of these questions, you can look it up later if you want to. I think his answer was that he didn't think anyone would target Malala because she was a teen girl, but he was well aware of the risks he was taking…
