ODD WORLD:SPANISH WOMAN MARRIES 3 NIGERIAN MEN

 
A 40 year old Spanish woman was arrested in Madrid for being married to three Nigerians who she had charged €3,000 each so they could get Spanish nationality.
The investigation began when police discovered irregularities in the request for a residency permit of a Nigerian man. He had married a Spanish woman and included the marriage certificate in his request.
However, the woman was registered as having married two other Nigerian men in other parts of Madrid in 2007 and 2008.

BLACK MODELS PROTEST BARE CHESTED FOR LACK OF BLACK MODELS IN FASHION INDUSTRY

BLACK PROTEST
In a gesture that is becoming as regular as the main event itself, black models organized a protest against under-representation at Fashion Rio’s Winter edition. As with similar protests staged in Brasília, São Paulo and previous fashion shows in Rio, the objective is to raise public awareness of the fact that non-whites make up 51% of Brazil’s population although one would never know this judging from the whiteness of models on runways. A report four years ago showed that São Paulo Fashion Week in January featured 344 models with only 8, or 2.3% being black.
