United hands Man City title with upset loss

Manchester City have won the Premier League title after second-place Manchester United were stunned 1-0 at home by West Bromwich Albion.

Pep Guardiola’s side are now uncatchable at the top of the table after United’s shock defeat to the bottom-of-the-table Baggies after Jay Rodriguez’s 73rd-minute strike sealed their fate.

City re-established a 16-point lead at the top of the table on Saturday when they ended a run of three successive defeats with a 3-1 victory away at Tottenham Hotspur.

Because of goal difference, United realistically needed to win all of their six remaining games and hope City lost their last five matches.

Guardiola said he wouldn’t be watching United’s game at Old Trafford on Sunday, but instead would be enjoying a round of golf with his son.

The Catalan has now won three titles in three different countries after three La Liga triumphs in Spain with Barcelona and three Bundesliga crowns with Bayern Munich and admitted it was one of his best achievements.

It caps a remarkable Premier League season that has seen City lose just twice thus far and win 28 of their 33 matches with a record-breaking run of 18 successive victories between August and December.

They have equalled the record for quickest title success held by United’s 2000-01 team, winning the league with five games remaining.

It’s a happy ending to a disappointing week that saw them dumped out of the Champions League by Liverpool and blow a 2-0 lead in the Manchester derby that would have seen them claim the crown against their bitter rivals.

City need just nine points from their final games to set a new record for most Premier League points, while another 11 goals would see them set a new goal-scoring record.

It’s the third Premier League success for the club after the titles won in 2012 under Roberto Mancini and 2014 under Manuel Pellegrini with captain Vincent Kompany, David Silva, Sergio Aguero and Yaya Toure involved in all of them.

But it’s the first title success for many of Guardiola’s key players including PFA Player of the Year nominees Kevin De Bruyne and Leroy Sane and Young Player of the Year hopefuls Raheem Sterling and goalkeeper Ederson.

Victoria's Secret Angel Taylor Hill Escorted Off Coachella Grounds Totally Out of It

Victoria’s Secret Angel Taylor HillCarried Off Coachella Grounds… Totally Out of It

4/15/2018 10:54 AM PDT

EXCLUSIVE

Victoria’s Secret Angel Taylor Hill might have had a little too much fun for Day 2 of Coachella, ’cause she had to be carried out by a group of friends by the end of it.

We got the model Saturday heading into the Empire Polo Club for round two of the festivities, where she was trying to be incognito — but appeared perked up and fully engaged with our camera guy … making her love for Beyonce loud and clear. 

Then we saw her again as she was leaving with what the same group of friends — only this time she was being held up as her head was hanging and she stumbled to the car. 

It sounds like an ambulance was being considered briefly, but her pals ended up getting her into the car safely where she appeared to be conscious and okay.

Embiid clears protocol, won't play in Game 2

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid has cleared the concussion protocol but will not play in Game 2 against the Miami Heat on Monday, the team announced Sunday.

Embiid had told ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne prior to Saturday night’s playoff opener that he was optimistic about playing in Game 2 or 3.

“If it was my decision, I would play, but I can’t get back out on the court if I don’t have the OK from them,” Embiid said. “But everything has been going well. I’ve been able to do everything. And I feel great. So we got a pretty good chance for Game 2 or Game 3. We gonna see how it feels in the next couple of days.”

Game 3 is set for Thursday night in Miami. The 76ers lead the series 1-0 after a 130-103 victory Saturday.

Embiid said he has lost some weight since he suffered a broken orbital bone and concussion in a collision with teammate Markelle Fultz on March 28. He had surgery to repair the fracture and missed the final eight games of the regular season.

Justin Bieber Punches Man Who Grabbed Woman By the Throat at Coachella Party

Justin Bieber Punches Man Who Grabbed Woman by Throat …At Coachella Party

4/15/2018 10:16 AM PDT

EXCLUSIVE

Justin Bieber punched a guy in the face and threw him against a wall after the man grabbed a woman by the throat at a Coachella party, and would not release his grip on her … TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us Justin and a friend showed up at a party Saturday being attended by Patrick Schwarzenneger. Justin was talking to some people when a guy walked in, spotted a woman … and went ballistic. Sources at the party say he appeared to be on drugs — and it looked as if the woman may have been his ex-GF. 

We’re told the guy suddenly grabbed the woman by the throat and would not release her. Justin and his friend started screaming at the guy to let her go, but he only screamed back “Go f*** yourself” … maintaining his grip. At that point, Justin hit the man in the face and pushed him against the wall … allowing the woman to break free. 

We’re told the guy was thrown out of the party and a short time later, was chasing an SUV … apparently believing Justin was inside. He was screaming Justin’s name as he began hitting the vehicle. We’re told cops eventually came and arrested him.

Gwyneth Paltrow's Rumored Wedding Rehearsal Brings Out A-Lister Pals

Gwyneth PaltrowWedding Rehearsal(?)Brings Out Hollywood’s Finest

4/15/2018 7:18 AM PDT

EXCLUSIVE

Do not doubt Gwyneth Paltrow‘s far reaching star power, ’cause she drummed up some the biggest names in Hollywood for what may have been practice for her forthcoming nuptials.

Tons of A-list actors and actresses poured out of the Los Angeles Theatre in Downtown L.A. Saturday night for an event many are calling Gwyneth’s and her fiance Brad Falchuk‘s wedding rehearsal. They all got grilled, but no one copped to what was going on inside.

Still, it was awesome seeing a lot of the most famous stars of the past two decades together in one building — Reese Witherspoon, Steven Spielberg, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Demi Moore, Cameron Diaz, Rob Lowe, Jon Favreau, and more were spotted leaving Gwyneth’s rumored run-through … and they were all smiles. Bodes well for wedding day!

As we reported … Gwyneth got engaged to be married again this past January, splashing the news on the front cover of her Goop issue that month. 

This will be the second marriage for both Gwyneth and Brad. She was married to Chris Martin — with whom she’s well known for consciously uncoupling — and started dating Brad before her divorce with Chris was finalized in 2016.
