Making out with Messi felt like "having sex with a dead body" - model Xoana González
Argentine-born Spain-based "model", Xoana González, has opened a lid of secrets on 5-time Ballon D'or winner, Lionel Messi. Xoana said she once had a fling with the Barcelona star but was disappointed that the athlete couldn't reciprocate his footballing skills and speed on the bed.
Xoana González who spoke on a Peruvian TV show "The Value If Truth" on Sunday said: "It was many years ago. In truth he was very young. But he knew what he was doing, was not minor, that was the important thing.
"His security told me 'got someone you want to know'. I was curious to see who it was, and froze when I saw it was my idol Messi I froze. I said that he is the wimp, though because he sent his security to get me. There I noticed that he is very shy. We talked about music and cannot remember if he told me he had a girlfriend or not. After a while we went to his apartment in Puerto Madero.
"When one plays across the whole pitch, you expect someone to return the favour. I wanted him to show me more than that. At one point I felt like I was with a dead body."

Just as the story of 9-year -old Korede Taiwo and his clergyman father who put him in chains for stealing is gradually dying down, another child - yet in the same Ogun State - has been rescued by Police after her guardian brutally grounded him for allegedly stealing 4,000 naira.
Police say Promise Udeh's aunt Chaimaka Okafor locked her at their Adigbe residence in Abeokuta, Ogun State for 48 hours before help could come. The woman is said to be on the run as of the time of filing this report.
A woman has released the last messages her 30-year-old son sent to her before the assailant gunned him down at the Pulse Nightclub, Orlando, Florida shooting that happened this morning. Mina Justice said she was outside the club and getting texts from her son Eddie before he was shot dead by gunman Omar Mateen who killed 49 other people and left dozens of others injured.
29-year-old Omar Mateen shot at dozens of people leaving at least 50 dead and 48 injured in a terrorist attack that happened 2:AM (12PM in Nigeria) on Sunday June 12th 2016 at Pulse Club in Orlando, Florida, United States. FBI says the man's family is from Afghanistan and he held extremist views of Islam and mostly targeted gays during the shooting.
The man was eventually shot dead by authorities after holding people inside the nightclub hostage for more than two hours.
[Breaking news alert, posted at 6 a.m ET Sunday] The suspect in the Pulse nightclub shooting in Florida is dead, Orlando police said. Authorities described the shooting as a "mass casualty situation."
Gunfire erupted at a gay nightclub in Orlando early Sunday, with multiple injuries reported, police said. "Everyone get out of Pulse and keep running," the nightclub posted on its Facebook page about 2 a.m. ET.
Orlando police warned residents to stay away from the area, and urged people not to call their offices. They declined to provide the number of casualties, saying details will be available later.
"This is a fluid scene and we are working on getting you an update," police said. 'Just bang, bang, bang!' Pulse describes itself as "the hottest gay bar" in the heart of Orlando. Hours before the shooting, the club urged partygoers to attend its "Latin flavor" event Saturday night. Jovial, well-dressed crowds heeded the call in an event that turned into a nightmare. "It was just, bang, bang, bang!" partygoer Christopher Hansen said of the gunfire. Ricardo Negron Almodovar said he was in the club when the shooting started about 2 a.m. He barely escaped. "People on the dance floor and bar got down on the floor and some of us who were near the bar and back exit managed to go out through the outdoor area and just ran," he posted on the club's Facebook page. "I am safely home and hoping everyone gets home safely as well."
Anthony Torres, who was at the club with friends, said he heard shots as he hurriedly drove off. "The shots did not sound like a regular handgun, it sounded like it was shooting repetitively and it wouldn't stop," he said.
"So we knew what it was and we left there pretty quick. It was over 70 cop cars that were arriving there ... It happened so quick that people got separated from each other."
Tearful relatives waited outside the club as lights from police cars flashed in the background. Some implored the media to help them get word on their loved ones.
'Just a lot of people screaming'
The sound of gunshots echoed beyond the club. Jose Torres was clocking in to work at a Dunkin' Donuts across the street when he heard them. "It was something that I never heard before," Torres said. "I had to run inside the store, and I saw just a lot of people screaming, crying. Just screaming and coming out running like crazy." Torres said he ducked into the Dunkin' Donuts and called 911 as several people dashed out of the club, bleeding. Police and SWAT teams rushed to the scene. "They don't let nobody in or out," he said. "The SWAT team is inside there."
FBI agents were also assisting at the scene, agency spokeswoman Amy Pittman said. Authorities have conducted a controlled explosion near the nightclub, according to Orlando police. Tom Fuentes, a CNN law enforcement analyst, said controlled explosions are used to breach a door or when a subject is barricaded in a room and police want to use a stun grenade to temporarily freeze their central nervous system.
Hospitals on lockdown
Authorities urged caution as police officers hovered nearby with weapons and dogs. A few miles away, the Orlando Regional Medical Center was placed on lockdown, the hospital said in a statement. Only essential workers are being allowed access into the building. Arnold Palmer Hospital and Winnie Palmer Hospital are also on lockdown out of an abundance of caution, officials said.

When contacted by Singaporean press, the newly married man said:
"We see it as the last step on the long journey to adulthood, and it’s also a special chance to witness the moment that a new life is formed.

Governor Ortom Samuel of Benue State has recounted how rampaging Fulani herdsmen dealt with him personally when they invaded his hometown in Guma, Benue State.
Speaking while receiving the council of APC governors in Markurdi on Thursday 26th May, Ortom lamented:
"The mercenaries invaded my village, killed over 50 persons and destroying over 200 hectares of my rice farm. As I am sitting here, I have no ancestral home, they killed children, old men and women in my community.
"The mercenaries come to Benue not just to graze but to steal, kill and destroy the livelihood of the agrarian people after which they take possession of the land knowing fully well that all we have here are our farms.
"The truth is that these attacks have brought a major setback to the people especially with our declining revenue from the federal allocation which was about N7 billion before i assumed office but this month stood at N1.3billion while our monthly wage bill stands at close to N4billion."
