LeBron James dance for Ellen + plays the drums for Miami fans

LeBron James has been out in the community lately.
He's been very playful and fan friendly.
(*By the way, stay tuned for an exclusive, when LeBron did the best interview of the season...with teen reporters. Story later today...)


Anyway, he made an recent appearance on the Ellen show when he surprised Ellen's writer, Amy, and then joined in her dance/aerobics class.



Not bad!


Then, at the Miami Heat's Family Festiva, LBJ jams on the drums.  Surya Fernandez of Hot Hot Hoops was on the scene.



Fernandez writes:
LeBron James handles some percussion duties, Udonis Haslem helps out as well. Most importantly though, Pat Riley can be seen dancing during the Ky-Mani Marley performance.

Get it LBJ!
*Good stuff!

Scottie Pippen's old stuff in a garage sale

Check this video (20 minutes) of a preview of a Garage Sale at Scottie Pippin's old Chicago home.

(Keep in mind, there has been a new owner since Scottie and his family lived there...but the new owners did inherit a lot of valuable Bulls stuff from the golden era with Michael Jordan.)



From the Chicago-area Trib Local:
On Saturday, shoppers began lining up at the door at about 6:30 a.m. for the sale that didn't start at 9 a.m. The usually quiet Shady Lane experienced a grid lock at times as drivers perused up and down the block, looking for parking that wasn't there. Even at about 4 p.m. an hour before close, about 100 people lined the driveway, half way to the curb. Most had spent about two hours waiting but still hadn't been able to enter the home.

Check out some of these photos...

Cover Boy: Amar'e Vogues it Up!

No doubt, Amar’e Stoudemire has used his move to the Knicks to increase his profile and now he's landed in the April issue of Vogue magazine. 
Amar'e makes NBA fashionable.

Here is what he had to say about his fashion sense:

When you put your fashion on — you know, your tailor-made suits or bow ties and fedoras — you feel like you’re swagger. You feel elegant and rich

Vogue's European Editor-at-Large Hamish Bowles had a lot of fun with the Knicks star, here's his print interview (for the magazine).

But check out this video...you'll enjoy it.

Oh, you gotta love Madison Square Garden these days.

Here's a twitpic of the kids in the car down to the arena.

and Bow Wow was the one tweeting.
Actress Whoppi Goldberg sits next to Lala Anthony.

...and Spike Lee. It looks like Ray Allen's mom is like "This fool is crazy. You know Boston is gonna beat that..."

Basketball Wives Tami Roman...tells it all

Next up on the "Let me tell you how it really is" press circuit, is Kenny Anderson's ex-wife, Tami Roman.
Kenny Anderson's ex-wife, Tami Roman

Tami stopped by Power 92.1 in Richmond to dish on all the behind the scenes drama. Here's the interview:



Here's the highlights:


On not fitting in with the other "Basketball Wives":

She said she thinks everybody comes from a different place and she is a bit more modest when it comes to flashy clothes and things like that. She said even when she was with Kenny Anderson she was a simple person.

On if she talks to her castmates off-camera:

She said she talked to both Shaunie and Jennifer but the conversations were short and were about her season 3 plans. She said everyone is only looking out for themselves because if "Basketball Wive"s doesn’t continue, then they don’t have anything else to fall back on.

On if she’s coming back on ‘Basketball Wives’:

She said she's still undecided because she felt the producers didn't show her true personality and made her look crazy.

On the huge Evelyn fight:

She said the night of the big fight, producers edited out the part where Shaunie came out to talk to her about people not being honest.  So she thought Evelyn was going to tell her she didn’t like her, but she had no idea that Evelyn and Kenny (her ex-husband) had sex.
Tami then explained that the fight was about dishonesty and Evelyn not telling her about the affair. She says she was upset because Evelyn should have been more upfront before they started to develop a relationship. 

On rumors of her stealing Kenny Anderson from Spinderella:

Tami said she didn’t know who Kenny Anderson was when he and Spinderella were together. She says the couple was broken up by the time she met him and Spin was well aware about their relationship.

On the ‘Basketball Wives’ reunion show:

She said she didn’t want to come on the reunion show at first but changed her mind because she wanted to show she is educated and articulate. She wanted the fans to see the other side of Tami. She says her other cast mates have to do what they have to do to keep it drama filled and keep the checks coming.

On the salary rumor that they get $7,500 per show:

She said she doesn’t know what the other girls get paid.

On her and Suzie’s relationship:

Suzie isn’t important to her.

On if Shaunie is pimping her and her cast mates:

She said Shaunie is the executive producer of the show so it’s all business with her. She said if you decide to do a reality show you already know what you are getting yourself into so Shaunie is NOT pimping her and her cast mates.

On if ‘Basketball Wives’ ruined Jennifer and Eric Williams’ relationship:

She said she doesn’t know if their relationship could have survived whether the show happened or not because they already had some problems. She does believe there was a point in time that Jennifer was in love with him and he was in love with her.

On her upcoming projects:

She said she has a book coming out titled The B.I.T.C.H. Chronicles which stands for Believing In Total and Complete Honesty.  She believes once people read her story they will understand alot about her and who she is as a person.
She also shared that she is working on a pilot for the USA network for a new scripted show. She says if the pilot goes through, then she’s not returning to "Basketball Wives."  And....she added that she's in a relationship right now with a man who is good to her and her kids.


Recap from theYPF.com

Tweet Time with Ron Artest

Here's a taste inside of the mind of our beloved Laker Ron Artest, as he shares with his fans on Twitter.

It's only 60 seconds...but could you handle more?!
He knows he's a little cooky.

March Madness Overseas


It's March and hoops is "mad". Even across the pond it gets crazy in the closing moments of a game. You could make this up but when it really happens it's better than anything you could write up in a script. You don't even need subtitles to know whats going on, just watch the time and score.



Now that is "amazing".

Dwight Howard Tweets about his Gas


On a normal night that facial expression from Dwight Howard would just be what the camera caught but after his tweet could he have been letting one fly?


Superman dropped (no pun intended) in 28 points on 9 of 11 shooting against the Cavs and given his "natural" advantage they may have came just a little but easier. Just imagine being in a post up situation

Hope you get that worked out Dwight, we'll see in the next GasX commercial spot.
