Singer Enrique Iglesias has Upped the World Cup Victory Celebration Ante

Check out?The Sporting Rave on?Twitter?and Facebook, if you?re into that kinda thing.

Spain is one of the most talented teams in the 2010 World Cup, and their fans are no disappointment?either. We’ve seen some crazy guarantees throughout the World Cup, but one Spanish fan has taken it to the next level.

Argentina coach Diego Maradona promised to run through the streets naked if his team won the World Cup, as did lingerie model Larissa Riquelme regarding Paraguay’s fate, but both of their teams’ tourney runs have come to an?abrupt halt.

Now singer Enrique Iglesias has made a similar wager, albeit one more extreme. The Spaniard has said that if Spain wins the World Cup, he will go water-skiing naked, which could definitely help promote his new album that hits stores Tuesday.

Don’t let this seemingly shallow bet fool you however, as Iglesias is nonetheless a big soccer fan and apparently talented player as well.

He once said that the youth soccer team he played on in the U.S. as a kid was so bad that they made him look like, coincidentally, Diego Maradona, which I?assume means he had at least some talent.

Lionel Messi Wants to Bring Back Oasis

Diego Maradona has promised to run through the streets naked if Argentina wins the World Cup, and now star player and arguably the best footballer in the world Lionel Messi has made a vow of his own.

While not as extreme, Messi is determined to somehow find a way to reunite the band Oasis for Argentina’s victory party, should they win the World Cup. The band split up last year after Noel and Liam Gallagher decided to part ways.

Ironically, it was only about two weeks ago when Messi?first heard Oasis. Teammate Carlos Tevez?shared the band’s first two albums with Messi on the plane ride to the World Cup, and he became infatuated.

He now listens to them before matches and in the locker room, and has said that all Oasis has to do is “name their price.” Just the act of meeting Messi would be price enough for me.
