Once, being a WAG was simply a matter of looking good in a frock and finding a footballer to marry you. Not any more. Today's variety are a very different breed, with some so high powered that their career eclipses that of their sporty other half. Leading the pack are platinum selling songstress, Shakira - who is Colombia's answer to Beyonce - and supermodel Irina Shayk. They've forged their own careers and amassed such personal fortunes that they will never need to be financially reliable on their rich footballer boyfriends.
