World most visited cities (continued)

Paris The French capital is expected to attract 15.6 million of visitors in 2014, many of whom are drawn to its iconic landmarks, including the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dameand the Louvre. But those same icons are exactly the areas that locals generally avoid. "There is no amount of money you can pay me to go to the Champs Élysées in the middle of August," said Christina Tubb, vice president of a French technology firm who moved from the US in 2009. Still, when she does visit the tourist destinations, she knows the local secrets – like getting a friend's season pass to hop the line at the Musee d'Orsayor using the "secret entrance" at the Louvre (at Porte des Lions). "I'll still bite the bullet and do a lot of touristy things because it's half the reason I live here," she said. *.

Editor's note: The list below reflects the top five cities on MasterCard's Global Destination Cities Index for 2014. The 2015 listremains largely unchanged. The same attractions that prompt people to love visiting a city – top-ranked restaurants, vibrant nightlife, diverse neighbourhoods, iconic sights – can entice them into staying longer term. In fact, many of the world's most visited cities, as ranked by 2014's Mastercard's Global Destination Cities Indexreleased in July, are also popular destinations for expats. *.

"Coming from a smaller city in Canada, I was overwhelmed at first by how crowded certain areas of Paris were," said Erika Belavy, who moved to the City of Light from Calgary, Alberta, seven years ago. "When I first moved to the city, I made the mistake of choosing an apa...

Lil Wayne Says Birdman Is Incompetent And They Might Be Losing Nicki And Drake

Forget the header, Lil Wayne actually has reasons to worry. The Rapper who has been having issues with Birdman, even going to Twitter to vent, seems to be really angry at Birdman. Safe to say the fight might not be ending soon. According to TMZ, Lil Wayne has called Birdman "incompetent" and because of that, Nicki Minaj and Drake are about to leave. Drake and Nicki are two of the hottest selling Rappers in the game right now, so there's no need explaining how much money would be lost if these two actually leave. Lil Wayne has thereby filed new documents in the lawsuit against Birdman. This does not look good at all. In the past, Tyga and Nicki have publicly pledged their allegiance with Lil Wayne so we at least know where those two would pitch their tents when this ship goes down. Because it just might be going down soon.

Bobby Shmurda gives update about his trial

Bobby Shmurda, whose rap anthem "Hot Nigga" put him on the map in 2014, remains incarcerated in New York's Rikers Island, facing a series of charges ranging from weapons to drug possession while his Billboard-chart topping hit lives on. The Brooklyn MC's lawyer Kenneth Montgomery has a theory as to why his client is still in prison. "It's my opinion that Bobby Shmurda was made an example of," Montgomery told Doggie Diamonds TV in an exclusive interview. "Whenever you have a prosecutor send out pressers before they make an arrest and a 'perp walk' then there is something else going on." Bobby has been custody since December 2014, after he and several members of his GS9 crew were arrested in New York, following an ongoing police investigation. Since the rhymer has been incarcerated, the #FreeBobbyShmurda movement has been going strong but according to Montgomery, not all of Bobby's so-called supporters can do much. ...

Hidden facts about Fast and Furious 7 original script

[WARNING: This post contains SPOILERS for Furious 7] – Furious 7was supposed to come out in summer 2014, but when star Paul Walker tragically passed awayin the middle of filming, director James Wan and his team had to retool several aspects of the movie (delaying its release date) – in order for it to be not just another thrilling installment in the series, but also a fitting tribute to the actor. Many would agree that Walker's farewell (in which his Brian O'Connor and Dom Toretto share one last ride down an open highway) was handled very well – and emotional to the point that even casual fans got swept up in the moment. There was, however, a version of Furious 7 that called for Walker to continue to be a part of Dom's "family" for future installments down the road. Now that the film has been released and is breaking box office records, some may be wondering how everything would have played out if Walker was still alive today. Wan has now revealed ...
