Spanish prosecutors charged Shakira's pop star with tax evasion because he is expected to pay no more than 14.5 million euros (16.3 million euros) between 2012 and 2014. The Colombian singer rejected the accusations.

The indictment, which was published on Friday, states that Shakira has listed Bahamas as her official residence for tax purposes during these years, but she actually lived in Spain with her partner, Spanish footballer Gerard Pique.

Tax rates in the Bahamas are much lower than in Spain.

In her statement on Friday, Shakira said that her representatives were not legally resident in Spain during the years concerned and did not pay back to the Spanish tax authorities anything they use as a "scapegoat" to scare other taxpayers.

The prosecutors in Barcelona said that traveling abroad was short-lived because of professional obligations, while staying in Spain for most of the year. They want her to pay tax in Spain according to her world income.

Shakira has officially moved to Spain for tax purposes in 2015, after Pique had two children.

The judge will assess whether there is enough evidence to bring Shakira to trial.

Prosecutors want Shakira to pay a bond in the amount of 19.4 million euros – an amount that they say is owed, and 33 percent in accordance with Spanish law. Otherwise, they recommend the freezing of the assets of its assets to this amount.

Shakira was named in the Desert Paradise Papers, which described the offshore tax arrangements of many individuals, including music stars such as Madonna and Bono U2.

The documents were received by the German Diary of the Sueddeutsche Zeitung and searched by the Spanish newsletter El Confidencial.

Spanish tax authorities sent their investigation to the Barcelona prosecutor's office a year ago.

"

According to Rolling Stone, at the Taylor concert at Rose Bowl in Pasadena in May, young fans took a kiosk that shows stars of the stars – where the hidden camera secretly scans faces to cross-refer to the database of hundreds of famous stalkers at Nashville Command Station. "

Mike Downing, Chief Security Officer Oak View Group, Advisory Board for Main Concert Venues, says to the magazine: "Anyone who went there would stop and look at this, and the software would start working."

He claims that he attended a concert to witness the launch of new stalk prevention software. Ticketmaster's chiefs are also considering the use of face recognition technologies at concerts, but they say they will be cautious about its implementation due to privacy concerns.

Taylor's representatives did not respond to a comment request.

Last week, a man who went to Swift's Town Hall in New York and slept for six months after being found guilty of a number of attempted burglaries and one criminal scorn.

Obsessed fans are a constant threat to the 29-year-old singer, and in addition to unwanted visits at home, a man at one of her concerts in Austin, Texas, in 2016, after having arrested his family with wrong e-mails.

Jason Momoa tried to find work after playing the Game of Thrones, while the directors assumed that he did not speak English.

Hunky Hawaiian won the legions of fans like the nomad king of the warrior Khal Drogo in a series of fantasy hits – but he spoke mainly in the inventive language.

As a result, when the 39-year-old character was destroyed at the end of the first season, he tried to become effective jobs.

"After that I did not have much work," said visiting guest U.K. host Graham Norton. "I mean, what are you doing with this – he does not speak English, he is not funny and just hurts people. I played this character, so it was a little difficult later. People would literally say:" Wow, you speak English! & # 39; "

Jason, who has two daughters, Lola Iolani, 11, and Nakoa-Wolf, 10, and her actress Lisa Bonet, admit that his supposedly charming role has left him to fight for money.

It explains: "2013 and I literally broke up – but the future would be bright! I could not fly anyone to anybody and I can not keep the secrets to save my life. It was very difficult for me, I'm glad we are here."

Luckily, he is now the star of the super-soundtrack of Blockbuster Aquaman, but he kept watching his biggest moment as long as he can not do this with his children.

"I have two children aged 10 and 11," she adds. "They were made for the entire recording and promised me that I will not watch them until I see them with them. I want to share it with my children and sit and hold hands – this is a rare moment for the Father and in general they can not watch things I do! "

When the singer broke through the chaotic nest, she signed autographs for lovers, followed by her mother Guadalupe, who accidentally hit his head with an autographer who photographed the clipboard.

Videos show Guadalupe, holding the right side of the head with his hand, as Jennifer stops signing and is worried about her mother.

The film is not necessarily a great moment.

Of course, they do not exclude each other, but a great movie moment is something more sophisticated – a few minutes of pure, inexplicable joy or even an invertebrate unbeliever that you want to re-visit immediately. This is the type of scene that you are accelerating ahead, the type you want to see again with friends and family that becomes meme.

Here we look at some of our favorite movie moments from 2018, which stayed with us long after the loans were spinning. Possible spoilers can be followed.

ABOVE THE APPLICATION IN THE "ZVEZDI ZNAM"

Almost literally goosebumps are a good sign that you have just seen a pretty breathtaking movie moment. This happens every time I watch an electrically "shallow" scene in the movie "The Star Is Born" and, especially when Alia Lady Gaga takes a deep breath and goes on stage to join Bradley Cooper's Jackson Maine and show her the song before thousands of people.

READ OUT AND TICKET IN "MAMMA MIA! HERE WE ARE EXPECTING"

Okay, so "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again" is barely embedded in the film, but there are enough moments that encourage the smile to give it a pass. Is this year a more pleasing end to the film than if young and old versions of all characters meet to sing and dance to "Super Trouper"? A little voice in your head could ask: Are they all dead? And why is so much metal in the heavens? But Pierce Brosnan, Stellan Skarsgard and Colin Firth appear from the bottom in a bar, beer in hand, and on top pressed to their abdominal buttons and logical examination just a sort of cleavage.

REKLAMING "SHINING" IN "READY PLAYER ONE"

In a film full of fanboy's pampering and film nostalgia, Steven Spielberg, with his own idol Stanley Kubrick, re-created The Shining's "Ready Player One" hotel and spin on it. Spielberg would never let the marriage fit with his narration, so instead of full re-irrigation he withdraws.

KILLMONGER CHALLENGES T & # 39; CHALLA V "BLACK PANTHER"

Often, you do not seem to really wonder what will happen in a great superhero movie, but "Black Panther" has kept the audience guessing and nothing more than one of the toughest and most interesting scenes of the year when Michael B. Jordanian Erik Killmonger – one of the greatest filmmakers – the challenge of Chadwick Bosman T & # 39; Challa for the throne, disarms the ruler first with his own words before fighting for the kingdom.

POOL PARTY IN "OSI"

Is there anything more unpleasant than having fun in high school? What about those who invited you just because the mother of a popular girl joins your father? That's what Kayla (Elsie Fisher) is fighting with Bo Burnham's "eighth grade". Burnham's camera where she places the audience with Kaylo when she goes through the house and on the carnival adventure outside, and we let her smooth and root through every agonizing moment.

HARRY POTTER GANG HARRY POTTER IN "THE SILENCE OF SUCKS"

"The Hate U Give" is a drama, of course, but some are moments of wonderful, heart-shaped vibrations that may not be visible to the audience just from the logo or trailer. In fact, some of the best scenes are lighter, including the moment when Starr Carter (Amandla Stenberg) is a stupid nonsense, Mav Carter (Russell Hornsby) explains how Hogwarts houses like gangs.

JAILHOUSE SPIRIT IN "PADDINGTON 2"

The exceptionally friendly bear from the Darkest Peruvian is confronted with one of its biggest challenges when it ends in a slammer with some unpleasant cell blocks, while a little marmalade magic in the kitchen raises everyday brandy, including Brendan Gleeson's Knuckles McGinty.

EDDIE BROCK JESI LOBSTER IN "VENOM"

Was anyone more completely, completely committed to such a bizarre character this year as Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock / Venom? Do not look further from the scene that's out there where it's hungry, Eddie jumps into the reservoir in a live lobster in a fancy restaurant and takes a bite from one crab. This is an image that I would like to forget, in fact, and yet …

BASTIAN BREAD BLOODY IN "GAME NIGHT"

Olivia West Highland White Terrier consolidated her star status in "widows", but her fake role only at the beginning of this year was Jesse Plemons, Bastian, in "Game Night", where she has an accident that she is in the same room as a bleeding Max (Jason Bateman), one of the fun moments of the year. Max observes that his blood drops on a snow white puppy and tries to dry it out with water. Of course this makes a little Westie pink and wet and itching to shake.

DISEASE IN "TULLY"

Pump. Feed. Change the diaper. Remove the diaper. Repeat. Jason Reitman and star Charlize Theron through a monotonous repetition of life with a newborn baby in a beautifully designed assembly in "Tully". It's funny, dark and real. Since you are sometimes so tired, you accidentally drop your phone to your child.

The Okanagan Symphony Orchestra selected some of the most popular festive stories that helped celebrate the spirit of Yuletid with words and music.

Her concerts of the Yuletide Tales will show talents from the entire valley, among them Baritone and narrator Garry Gable, massive youth choir and OSO players.

After a lively introduction with Leroy Anderson's Christmas Festival, on stage will be three classic stories: the charming memories of Dylan Thomas about his children's holidays in Wales, the oldest descriptions of Santa Claus in "Twas Night Before Christmas" and others. Seuss' classic "How Grinch steal Christmas."

The orchestra will also feature the Okanagan Symphony Youth Choir.

"Singing with OSO is a completely different experience. It's so exciting to be part of something bigger than us and to listen to our musical pieces in different instruments," says KSS student Charlotte Cruse.

OSO Music Director Rosemary Thomson says: "I can not wait to share the stage with our Okanagan Symphony Youth Chorus and guest artist Garry Gable (who will direct his inner Boris Karloff) when we bring these classical stories into musical life. The pleasure is to practice these pieces and happy to share the spirit of the holidays with our audience for a fun filled celebration. "
