Russell Brand reckons basketball is nothing compared to watching his beloved West Ham and wasn’t impressed with the LA Lakers game he saw this week.
The footy-mad star hung out courtside with fiancée Katy Perry but when he couldn’t get into the sport, he voiced his frustration in a series of Tweets. In fact, there were so many it seemed like he spent more time Tweeting than watching the match!
As he arrived, he posted: “Lakers tonight. I’ll be courtside” and then quipped: “Kobe [Bryant] must focus on three balls because I refuse to wear underpants.”
And once he got home, the game was obviously still on his mind. He tweeted: “What is a Laker anyway? A sub aquatic Quaker? It doesn’t make sense.”
“And they pick the ball up in their hands. God, I miss West Ham.”
At one point he also said: “I’ve just heard the Lakers are all millionaires! How! I put my balls in a basket ONCE and I was thrown out of the maternity ward.”
OK Russ we get the idea – you’re not into basketball and the players are overpaid. Thing is, with courtside seats at the Lakers costing around $3300, you’re obviously not short of a few bob either!
