Julia Fox caused quite the buzz with her latest look as she stepped out rocking an unusual pair of sunglasses in New York City on Tuesday. While leaving her two-bedroom Manhattan apartment, all eyes were on the 34-year-old actress as she made the sidewalk her runway in a cropped silver cardigan over a  necktie t-shirt and low-rise capri pants. Although her entire outfit was full of head-turning elements, her shades instantly drew comparisons to the ones that Ato Boldon famously sported at the Sydney Olympics in 2000.

What would happen if, by 8pm local on November 29 - or maybe even 6pm four days earlier - there was no more Qatar at the Qatar World Cup?What promises might be reneged upon then?What welcome mat might be hastily rolled up and put away? Nobody knows what will happen next. Without Qatari interest, how long before FIFA and their hangers-on seriously outstay their welcome?
