NBA Releases High Heels For Women Who Want To Rep Their Favorite Team

There was a point of time when we were wondering if celebs were overdressing to attend Basketball Games.  Now, women who love to stunt courtside even more of a reason to show off their shoe game.

The NBA has recently linked up with an Orlando-based company called Herstar to create two types of pro-basketball footwear that feature team logos. The collection include a$249.99 crystal-covered, 6-inch heel that has a 3-inch platform; and just in case you don’t want all that bling on your feet, there’s a $99.99 microsuede 4-inch heel that has a 1-inch platform. All of the 30 NBA teams will have heels available for purchase, however, since the company has been waiting on the licensing agreement with the NBA their backorders are in the hundreds already.  The shoes that feature Swarovski Crystals are custom made and takes up to 8 weeks to make.

Herstar’s female founder Holly Joffrion revealed that she came up with the idea for the heels after realizing that women love shoes as much as they love their favorite team, so why not put them together to show team spirit:

“We look forward to offering sports fans a high-end line of fashionable heels. We understand how much women love their shoes and recognize that going to an NBA game can be an event beyond the hardwood. We’re able to combine the love of basketball and footwear together, allowing female fans another way to display their passion for the game.”

So far, their top selling heels are the San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Lakers and the Oklahoma City Thunder and if you can’t rock the 4- or 6-inch heels, they’ll customize the heels to a shorter height. These about to change the game when it comes to throwing a sports party.

Kanye & Kim Kardashian Courtside Cuddling At The Lakers Playoff Game

Kimye has taken their show on the road…

Last night, Kanye West jetted to Los Angeles to catch a Lakers playoff game with Kim Kardashian, just days after he popped up in Toronto to support her new jewelry launch.  The two laughed and giggled courtside as the Lakers took on the Nuggets in Game 7 of the Western Conference Quarterfinals. The Lakers went on to win the game and series in a 96-87 victory.

Although Kim and Kanye were getting really cuddly and cozy courtside, it looks as though they avoided the kiss cam jumbotron action. Kanye is so loving all of this extra attention and camera action.

Meagan Good Hits Up The Lakers Game With New Fiance, Talks Proposal

Actress Meagan Good was pretty lowkey this weekend at the Staples Center as she caught a Lakers Game with her new fiance, Devon Franklin. The two were spotted sitting courtside, enjoying nachos and Meagan was definitely showing off her new ring.

She recently caught up with Global Grind and told them  that Devon was heaven sent after she sent a prayer to God and he told her not to settle. She also knew while filming ‘Jumping The Broom’, which Devon produced, that he was going to be her husband even though they didn’t start dating until nine months later:

I was crying about so much at the time that God told me exactly what it was going to be and he told me that the next relationship that I got into was going to be “the” relationship. God told me specifically what the criteria was with the man I was going to marry and he told me to not settle. So I would meet guys who are Christians or loved the Lord, but they weren’t trying with all their heart to walk with him. And I wouldn’t feel in myself that that was the guy, so even if I liked him or was attracted to him I would say, OK I’m not going to settle.”

“Then shortly after that I became celibate. I said, ‘Alright Lord, let’s see what you have for me. Oddly enough, Devon and I had known each other for six years and [Jumping The Broom] wrapped nine months before we even dated. During a couple of those months before, it started getting in my spirit that he was going to be my husband and he didn’t even know.”

“I came and did this thing in his church where I talked about my testimony. I already told my godsister in the car on the way over there. Oh, he’s my husband I know that. And we didn’t start dating till three months after that.”

When asked what her reaction was when he finally proposed, she responded:

I drew a complete blank. Because I had no idea what was going on and it took me a moment to figure out what was even going on in the moment. Once I realized what was going on, my whole brain just shut down. It just went into complete shock. I heard half of what he was saying but there was a whole portion of it that was like a black hole of shock and emotion. Wow, this is really happening right now. It’s kind of a surreal moment. It’s like you’re in an alternate universe.

Is Gloria Govan Hiding An Engagement Ring?

Are ride or die couple Matt Barnes and Gloria Govan finally about to tie the knot?

Last night, they attended the 2nd Annual ‘To The Nines’ Event held at the Westin in Los Angeles and Gloria was on ring hiding duties as they took pics throughout the night.   The couple was previously engaged for over five years before giving their relationship a rest after Matt was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. Moving to a new city was stressful for their family but their relationshipreally took it’s toll during filming of Basketball Wives LA’s first season.

Last month, Gloria was a guest on Afterbuzz TV and she seemed very happy as she revealed that she had rekindled her relationship with Matt. She explained that they were able to rebuild trust and re-spark the fire in the relationship by living separately, going on dates and taking things so much slower than they did the first time around.

We split. Our time spent apart was very interesting. We have been up and down. It’s been an emotional rollercoaster. People don’t necessarily understand what it takes. We’ve been on five different teams in five years, moving across country twice with kids, by myself, just graduated college type of thing so we’ve been through a lot.

We are working things out. Now, that we’re dating it’s funny. We’ll go on movie dates and we’ll go to dinner and we moved separately. [starting from scratch]. That’s what we are working towards now. He still has his own spot and I have my own spot with the kids and he spends time over and that kind of stuff so we are rebuilding the trust and the fire.

[Before] we got engaged 8 months into our relationship and then [I got] pregnant 10 months into the relationship. Everything was on a fast track for us so now we are going super slow. I mean movie dates, can you put me in your schedule type of thing.

Nice! Good luck to the both of them!

I would definitely avoid the reality TV thing moving forward if I were them. That’s a couple’s curse.

 

Lil Wayne’s Girlfriend Shows Off Huge Ring At The Lakers Game

Is Lil Wayne engaged or what?

He and his girl Dhea looked like they had a long day yesterday while sitting courtside at the Staples Center for the L.A. Lakers vs. Miami Heat game.  Dhea actually looked as though there were better things she could be doing than sitting up in some expensive seats watching Kobe, Lebron and em’ play.

Wayne was sporting his Beats by Dr. Dre headphones which have been his favorite accessory lately while Dhea was rocking a huge diamond ring her ring finger. On Valentine’s Day,  Wayne allegedly took her to a restaurant and had the wait staff slip the ring in her dessert. He later jumped up and said  ‘She Said Yes’, which sparked rumors that he proposed.

Could this be the chick that will make an honest, committed man out of Weezy? Last week, he tweeted ‘I feel like I’ve died and went to Dhea‘.
