Saucy tribute for Lionel
Barcelona football star Lionel Messi, a rock n' roll legend and British royalty will be honoured this year by Spain's "caganer" figurines.
The figurines have been sold in Spain's Catalonia region since the 18th century, when they were placed in nativity scenes in the hope of bringing good luck and a rich harvest.
But now they show the famous personalities with their bottoms bared in the act of defecating. Along with Messi, figurines of Columbian singer Shakira and her football playing boyfriend Gerard Pique will also be on sale.
