I’m a Movie Star!!!

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Hey, ya’ll know I had a busy summer what with the way I was working on my game, getting all swole in the weight room and traveling so much to Africa and China. But your boy also got a chance to go Hollywood this summer, and I gotta tell you it was so, so, so much fun.

First, I got to appear on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in New York. We talked about me being on the cover of NBA Live 10 and me winning the Slam Dunk contest two years ago. Then, we played some Pop-A-Shot and I swatted a few of his shots.

Then, things got even better. I worked on two movies – the first one was “Just Wright,’’ a movie with Queen LaTifah. The storyline is a physical therapist who falls in love with a basketball player who suffered a major injury. It’s tight and ya’ll have to make sure you check it out later this year when it comes out.

A few weeks back I worked on “Valentine’s Day,’’ and let me tell you it has real star power in that movie. Julia Roberts, Jamie Foxx, Jessica Biel, Jessica Alba, Ashton Kutcher and Anne Hathaway were in it, too.

I was supposed to just make a cameo in that movie, but I ended up in several scenes. It’s kind of a romantic comedy, so guys have to take your girls to the movie to check out ya boy on the big screen.

I finally got a chance to see what it takes to be a movie star. It takes a lot of work. I like movies and really enjoy doing that kind of stuff. But people just see the finished product and they don’t see everything that it takes to make that movie. Sometimes it was two or three hours just to do one or two scenes.

Being in front of the camera is something that I actually really enjoy. It allows me to be myself and have fun. Hopefully I’ll have a lot more opportunities in the future to do more commercials and movies because I really enjoy it.

Actually, a couple of the directors told me that I did a really good job and they want me to come back and do some more stuff with them in the future, so that’s exciting for me.

So ya’ll be sure to check me out on the big screen and let me know whatcha think.

I’m out for now. Holla back at ya later.

Video of My Workout Routine

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

Heyyy world. People keep asking me what I’ve been doing to get ready for next season. Like I told y’all yesterday, I usually spend about 90 minutes in the weight room and 90 minutes on the court daily. To give y’all a little inside look at my workout routine, I invited Kyle Montgomery from NBA TV to join me for one of my weight room sessions. Watch the video below to see how well he was able to keep up:
