拢72m in one year! Top sports stars' income published - are they getting too much?
Footballers playing the people's game, becoming multimillionaires while fans pay through the nose for tickets. Is this one of your big gripes?
Mega-rich sports stars rolling in the money. Footballers playing the people's game, becoming multimillionaires while fans pay through the nose for tickets. Is this one of your big gripes? Or do you think top stars deserve all the riches, because of their skills and all the joy they bring? Well - an international sports star rich list has been published. It's the annual list compiled by influential business list Forbes. Cristiano Ronaldo tops the heap, who received a whopping 拢72.05m in the year. Our own Rory McIlroy is sixth with 拢38.74m. Tennis star Serena Williams is the only woman on the list in 51st place. Vinny spoke to commentator Tim Hedgley, journalist Damian Reilly and sports journalist Steven Beacom.
Also on the programme, is there an age limit on 'being sexy'? Well now, former Playboy magazine 'Playmates' are recreating their cover shots, some almost 40 years after the original. The raunchy magazine says they are 'recreating their iconic cover images to prove that sex appeal is timeless'. But can you really be sexy at 60? And we are talking men and women here. Commentators John McCririck and Paul Martin joined Viinny to discuss.
And, ban manspreading! Yes, Madrid has moved to ban 'manspreading' on its public transport system. It is reported the change comes after a group called 'Women at War' launched a social network campaign against it and presented a petition signed by 10,000 people to Madrid city hall. Vinny got the views of commentators Martin Daubney and journalist Niamh Horan.
