Prince turned up in the front row of a Lakers game (who knew he liked sports?) and he’s with an exotic and glamorous woman. She kept her eyes focused on HIM rather than the court action, and we wonder who she is.

David Beckham has been sitting courtside at all the Lakers home games this year – he brought Victoria to a game, but usually he’s in the company of one of his sons. Except once, when he brought Marc Anthony. Another audience member sitting behind the two guys reported that David was intently watching the players on the court, but Marc never shut up – “he was facing Beckham and yakking in his ear like a chihuahua through the whole game.” (Was he talking about Scientology?)
Maybe Kanye West isn’t as arrogant as he wants us to think. Last Sunday he was at a Lakers game and they played his song “Goldigger.” Kanye was sitting courtside and when the jumbotron flashed his image, there was a ROAR of applause for him! He looked completely overwhelmed by the warm response. And he really WAS touched – minutes later he was seen in the tunnel crying.
Lakers fans love to “rate” the celebrities when their images appear on the Jumbotron. At last week’s game they made their preferences quite clear. Whenever stars’ close-ups appear on the Jumbotron screen, the fans respond with cheers or whatever. Last week when Andy Garcia’s face appeared, there was applause. When Ellen Pompeo popped up onscreen, there was no reaction at all. Jim Belushi got some claps. As soon as Jeremy Piven’s face flashed onscreen, the audience ROARED with approval! But when Mel Gibson had his closeup – the crowd BOOED. And of course he stuck out his tongue in response.
