Eliza Samudio
One of Brazil's soccer superstars is under arrest for masterminding the murder of his former mistress -- a model and porn actress -- whose dismembered body was fed to dogs.
Bruno Souza, 25, and six other people, including his wife Dayane, are being held in the grisly case.
Souza, the goalkeeper for Brazil's championship Flamengo team, met the beautiful victim, Eliza Samudio, at a teammate's party last year and got her pregnant the first night they spent together, police said.
But he became enraged when she insisted on keeping the baby. Samudio filed a complaint in October, saying Souza beat her and tried to force her to swallow an abortion-inducing drug.
After their child, now 4 months old, was born and Samudio tried to prove Souza was the father, he hired a former police detective, Luiz Aparecido Santos, to kidnap, beat and murder her, investigators said.
They suspect that Samudio, 25, was kidnapped from a Rio de Janeiro hotel on June 4 and driven to a suburban house near the city of Belo Horizonte, six hours away.
One of Souza's cousins, who allegedly took part in the abduction, said in a deposition that Santos committed "barbaric tortures" of Samudio while loud music blared to cover her screams, the newspaper Estado de Sao Paulo said.
When Samudio begged Santos to stop, saying she couldn't bear it any more, he allegedly replied, "You are not going to bear it any more. You are going to die."
Police said Santos strangled Samudio, cut up her body and fed some of the parts to Rottweiler dogs at the home. The other parts were buried in concrete, they said.
Police said Souza had planned the crime, told other plotters to "solve the problem" of Samudio, and witnessed her torture and strangulation.
"According to witnesses, he accompanied Eliza to her sacrifice and her death," said Edson Moreira, a police investigator.
Souza was arrested Wednesday.
"An idol like Bruno, from such a major team, is a monster for what he has done to this girl," said Moreira.
Souza was taken in handcuffs from his prison cell for DNA testing yesterday to establish a physical link to the murder. But he exercised his legal right to refuse to give any samples.
Souza, who captained his team to the Brazilian championship last year, said he is innocent and has a "clear conscience." He complained that the Samudio case might spoil his chance to play for Brazil in the next World Cup.

Ice Cube seemingly has done it all. From his beginning as a member of legendary West Coast hip hop group along with Dr Dre, Eazy E, MC Ren & DJ Yella. To his successful solo career that has seen him release nine solo albums. In addition he's dropped two albums with Mack 10 and WC as Westside Connection.
Cube, real name O'shea Jackson is also a bonified movie star, having starred in 25 films, most notably the 'Friday' series, 'Boyz In The Hood', 'Barbershop' and 'Are We There Yet?'.
Having accomplished so much you might wonder what Cube has up his sleeve next and what motivates him.
Angie Martinez, Stephen A. Smith and Harry Allen pick Cube's brain on the BET show 'Food For Thought: Conversations With Ice Cube' to see what he's up to.
Stephen A. gets the ball rolling by asking, "What was the defining moment that really shaped Ice Cube?"
"You know it happened way before I started rapping. I was fortunate, my father was right there in the house with me," Cube tells him. "When the father stays with the son, even with the daughter it gives them a better chance to navigate this world."
Angie asks Cube how he's managed to keep his 18 year marriage and family together when so many marriages end in divorce after a few years.
"You know that's the first career, the family, you know what I mean? You gotta make that work," he explains. " If you don't make that work then everything else could suffer. That is the foundation that keeps you focused. It keeps my priorities in line, it's got me where I am. A lot of people worry about a lot of things, but you're responsible for your kids you know. That's your project, that's what you're the God of in a way. So if you can't do that right, everything else you try is probably gonna fail."
Cube goes on to talk about he avoided getting the shaft from Jerry Heller by not taking the $75,000 he was being offered to sign a contract when all the other members of NWA were more than happy to take the money. And how he got his introduction to the Bomb Squad who produced his first solo album.
A question a lot of hip hop fans want the answer to is how Cube got into acting initially.
"You know I never wanted to be an actor, I never thought I could even be an actor. At that time I wanted to be the best rapper in the world and that's all I cared about," he tells Stephen A. " I went up to the Arsenio Hall Show [in 1989]. I wanted to ask Arsenio 'why you aint have NWA and Eazy E on your show'. And this intern come up, John Singleton, he said 'what up man, you Cube huh? I'm at USC, I'm a student at film school right now. I'm writing a movie I want you to be in it.' Cube says of meeting the future director of his first movie 'Boyz In the Hood'.
"I'm like aight dude, If you aint Spike Lee watch out. Fast forward, another year go by it's '90. My manager say 'yo somebody want you to be in a movie, these pages came in'. he's like 'just go'. I go and when I walk in it's John. He done graduated, he done put his movie together. He's like 'remember me? I told you I was gonna have you do it.'"
Cube went on to star as Dough Boy in the film 'Boyz In Da Hood' and the rest is history.
Cube said he's ready make another 'Friday' movie if he can get Chris Tucker to reprise his role as Smokey.
"I got a petition I want you to sign. We need him [Chris Tucker] back. Wouldn't you want a fourth one with Chris, Mike Epps, Katt [Williams], Terry Crews in there, get Tiny [Lister]. You know bring everybody back."
Check out the rest of the interview below, Cube is one hell of a good role model and someone people should respect for how he's conducted himself on stage and off.

Gloria Velez considers herself a pioneer for female Latina's in the business. In this interview with MajorMovesDVD she talks about her aspirations to be the first Latina rapper to break the platinum sales mark in hip hop.
She also takes time to clown Nicki Minaj again. Glo went in on Nicki over Young Money's "Roger That" beat a few months ago, now she's added Drake to her list of targets
"I actually agree with Lil Kim, like I said in my rhymes," Gloria says. "In the beginning Nicki was trying to be Lil Kim with the pictures, the spreading the legs, mimicking Fox [Foxy Brown]. Trying to rap reggae, certain slang the way Fox said it. Kim definitely paved the way for females and Nicki Minaj should give her props. And I think that was a bitch ass move for Drake to even get into female business. That's some bitch ass sh*t, come on dude are you serious, like is the p*ssy that good?"
Glo says there is no way Nicki Minaj will go gold on her debut album and calls Keys corny and ugly.
Interesting stuff, let's see if Nicki or Keys fires back

(CNN) -- British supermodel Naomi Campbell will appear before the war crimes tribunal of former Liberian President Charles Taylor, according to a statement from her representative.
She's been called as "a witness" and "is not being accused of any wrongdoing and is not on trial," the statement says.
Campbell had previously said she did not want to be involved in the war crimes trial at The Hague, Netherlands. But on July 1, the court issued a subpoena ordering her appearance. Campbell faced a prison term of up to seven years, a fine of about $500, or both, if she failed to appear.
Taylor 62, faces war crimes charges over a brutal conflict in Sierra Leone that was fueled by rough diamonds that also known as blood diamonds or conflict diamonds.
Prosecutors had rested their case in February 2009. They asked to reopen it specifically to call Campbell, as well as actress Mia Farrow and a witness named Carole Taylor, court papers show.
Prosecutors said they learned in June 2009 that Taylor had given the supermodel a diamond in South Africa in 1997. Farrow confirmed it, they said.
When arguing to reopen the case, prosecutors said Campbell's testimony would prove that the former president "used rough diamonds for personal enrichment and arms purchases," according to papers filed with the U.N.-backed court.
Taylor, 62, was president of Liberia from 1997 to 2003. The war crimes charges against him stem from the widespread murder, rape and mutilation that occurred during the bloody civil war in Sierra Leone. It was fought largely by teenagers who were forced to kill, given addictive drugs to provoke violent behavior, and often instructed to rape and plunder.
Taylor is charged with five counts of crimes against humanity, including murder, sexual slavery and violence, and enslavement. He also faces five counts of war crimes, including acts of terrorism and torture, and one count of other serious violations of international humanitarian law.
He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

(AllHipHop News) Snoop Dogg and a number of other West Coast rappers are being sued by a legendary bassist who claims the artists illegally sampled a record and never paid him.
Michael Henderson cut his teeth touring with Stevie Wonder and recording extensively with Miles Davis, before he launched a successful solo career and released eight critically acclaimed albums.
His music has been sampled by artists like Jay-Z, Eminem, Notorious B.I.G. and others.
Lawyers for Henderson filed a lawsuit against Snoop Dogg, MC Eiht, Goldie Lo, Kam, Doggy Style Records and Universal Music on Tuesday (July 6th).
According to the lawsuit, which was filed in the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern District, Snoop and company illegally sampled “Riding,” a song on Henderson’s 1979 album Do It All.
Henderson accuses the rappers of incorporating his music into their song “Riding” and also “Hands on the Wheel,“ which were both available for stream, download and purchase.
In the complaint, Henderson claims “Flashbacks” featuring Warzone (Goldie Loc, Kam and MC Eiht) was released on a mixtape, which was used to promote Snoop’s album Ego Trippin’, which was released in March of 2008.
Henderson also says “Hands on the Wheel” illegally incorporated his music and was used to boost ticket sales for Snoop’s West Fest tour in June of 2008.
Henderson is suing for copyright infringement, unfair competition and unjust enrichment. He is seeking unspecified damages in a trial by jury.

R&B singer USHER is so obsessed with sexy women's underwear, he wants to design his own lingerie line for female fans.
The OMG hitmaker is fascinated by lacy undergarments and indulges his fetish by purchasing bras and corsets from top luxury brands for his girlfriends.
But the star admits he has his own style ideas and would love to create a range of lingerie with his pal Tamara Mellon, who runs the fashion label Jimmy Choo.
He tells Britain's Glamour magazine, "I love a woman's curves, her shape, particularly nude. I really do enjoy that. And you should know that I'm a fan of lingerie, I mean more than most men. Kiki De Montparnasse and Agent Provocateur - I know all the names. (An ideal woman) naked under a trench coat except for some Cosabella underwear and Jimmy Choo shoes. Tamara Mellon is a friend of mine and I keep telling her we have to do something cool together, like design a lingerie line though Jimmy Choo."
Usher certainly has the experience to launch such a venture - he designed the monogrammed boxer shorts he wore on a ladies-only tour

Album's have been leaking early for so long, some eager fans have gotten accustomed to getting their hands on the finished product weeks before the actual release dates.
Kanye West's new album, 'Good Ass Job' could possibly suffer a leak months before it's September due date.
An email to director Hype Williams hit the net yesterday (July 8) and appears to have the full track list for the album.
The screenshot also clearly shows files in mp3 format. When a song or two leaks this early, an artist has usually cut so many records by that point, leaked ones can be replaced.
But knowing how hard Yeezy has reportedly worked on this album, for it to leak in it's entirety could be disastrous for Kanye and his record label.

The charming sounds of Orient music is felt all through the album by this Iranian singer. It reminds of the flavor of coffee: you have felt it thousands of times, you know every component of this flavor, and however, something indefinable is felt. The music itself is very atmospheric and powerful.If I was an admirer of Orient music in 1997, when the album “Sunyata” by Azam Ali was released, I guess I would dance of gladness, and look for it everywhere.
Luckily, I have an opportunity to purchase it in online shop, and enjoy the mellow voice of this singer. My Sufi culture custom research paper was written in burst of inspiration. Time flew imperceptibly, as I turned the endless repeat of an album. I came to my senses past midnight, turned off the player, and went to sleep, however, I could not, as this charming voice sounded in my head for at least an hour. The verdict is obvious: album is worth listening to, however, be careful with time, especially, if you admire Eastern culture and Oriental music.In distinction with other albums, positioned as New Age style, the music which is offered in “Sunyata” is mild and suits either for mental concentration, if you need, for instance, to write a custom essay, or for meditation.
Some melodies may be used for doing sport exercises, however, only if you are doing many repetitions per set. Some even manage to create software programs and copyright articles listening to this music.
