Dos titanes del fitness van camino de enfrentarse en los tribunales, porque David Beckham ha demandado a la empresa de Mark Wahlberg por un acuerdo de fitness que aligeró la cartera de la ex estrella del fútbol.

La empresa de Beckham, DB Ventures Ltd, alega en la demanda que F45 lo "engañó" para que firmara con F45 Training, empresa en la que Wahlberg tiene una participación del 36%. M.W. también es el director de marca de la empresa.

Beckham, que se acercó a Mark cuando se mudó a Cali para jugar en el L.A. Galaxy, se convirtió en Embajador Global de F45. El argumento de venta: David tiene millones de seguidores en las redes sociales, por lo que presumiblemente ampliaría enormemente el alcance de la empresa.

Shakira está abrazando completamente su vida de soltera, tanto que acaba de confesar que estar casada era algo que le pesaba y le puso un freno a su carrera musical.

La cantante colombiana estuvo 11 años con el futbolista Gerard Piqué, antes de que se separaran en 2022 en medio de rumores de infidelidad, y recientamente le dijo a Zane Lowe de Apple Music 1 que sin Gerard en su vida tiene un impulso compulsivo por trabajar y hacer música como nunca antes.

Ahora, la soltería de Shakira no es perfecta tampoco. También fue realista sobre los desafíos que conlleva ser madre soltera de sus hijos Milán, de 11 años y Sasha, 9 años.

La reina de "Hips Don't Lie", que se mudó de España a los Estados Unidos después de su separación, cuenta que sus dos hijos se apoyan mucho en ella y sin el maridito en el cuadro, dice que está sosteniendo el buque por sí misma.

Esta no es la primera vez que Shakira arremete contra Gerard por el impacto negativo que tuvo en su trabajo como cantente. También le dijo al Sunday Times que tuvo que sacrificar su carrera musical en nombre del amor.

Pero ahora, luego de 7 largos años, Shakira está de vuelta con su muy esperado álbum de estudio, "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran" (Women Don't Cry Anymore), ¡que saldrá este viernes!

Shakira's all about that single life ... straight-up saying being married weighed her down, and put a damper on her music career.

The Colombian singer was with soccer player Gerard Piqué for 11 years before they separated in 2022 amid infidelity rumors ... and she told Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1 that with Gerard outta the picture, she's now got a compulsive urge to work and make music like never before.

Shakira's singledom ain't all sunshine and rainbows though ... she's also keeping it real about the challenges of being a single parent to her sons, 11-year-old Milan and 9-year-old Sasha.

The "Hips Don't Lie" queen, who made the move from Spain to the U.S. post-split, dishes that her 2 kiddos are leaning on her big time ... and with no hubby in the picture, she's holding down the fort all by herself.

This ain't the first time Shakira's gently lashed out about how Gerard negatively impacted her career -- she also told the Sunday Times she sacrificed her music-making journey in the name of love.

But, Shakira's back in action ... after 7 long years, she's dropping her much-awaited studio album, "Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran" (Women Don't Cry Anymore), this Friday!

Security tried like hell to break up the brawl ... but not before even more spectators made their way to the pitch.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino released a statement on the ugly scene ... saying, "The violence witnessed after the Turkish Super Lig match between Trabzonspor and Fenerbahce is absolutely unacceptable -- on or off the field, it has no place in our sport or society."

"All players have to be safe and secure to play the game which brings such joy to so many people all over the world."
