The Story
- UPDATE: 09-21-2011: Well, that didn't take long.
Ron Artest Metta World Peace has become the first contestant to be eliminated from season 13 of Dancing with the Stars.
*******
08-30-2011: The perpetual news machine that is Ron Artest keeps on rolling. Ron Ron Artest has been announced as a contestant on season 13 of Dancing with the Stars!
*******
07-26-2011: And the hits just don't stop coming with Ron Artest, who clearly refuses to be out of the spotlight for even one day. What now, you ask? Well, it looks like Ron Ron fully embraced his newly admitted but long standing divorce by sexting with complete strangers. And then sending this girl photos of his dong. What is with athletes these days? STOP SENDING DICK PHOTOS! Unless you're hung like Greg Oden, no one wants to see your penis. Anyway, I don't have the will to actually write up something long on this, so check out the photo (blurred) to the right and then head on over to Deadspin and read this for yourself.
*******
07-25-2011: A few things today. First, it looks like all of the confusion surrounding Ron Artest's wife Kimsha and his supposed girlfriend Shin Shin is with good reason. As it turns out, he has actually been divorced from Kimsha since June of 2009! Also, there are rumors floating around that Kimsha will be the latest NBA wife turned divorcee to star in Basketball Wives. Who cares? Not us.
*******
06-25-2011: With the name confusion of his wife apparently not enough, Ron Artest is petitioning the courts so that he can legally change his name to Metta World Peace. At least that's easier to spell than Kimsha, or Kimesha or Kimisha...
*******
06-08-2011: HUGE NEWS! According to Ron Artest's own Twitter feed, his wife's name is Kimsha Artest. And, side note (not really important at all) she will apparently be starring in her own reality TV show soon.
- Fast Facts: Ron Artest's Wife Kimsha Artest (Hatfield), at least according to the Internet, is a woman with a name of many spellings. With sites referring to her as Kimisha Hatfield, Kimesha Hatfield and Kimsha Artest. Even ESPN, which one would assume would have the facts correct, referred to her with two different spellings. SI Kids even provided their own spelling not found anywhere else, though I'm really confused as to why a magazine for kids would touch Ron Artest with a ten foot pole. Long story short, I basically just picked one out of a hat, so if you know her real name - hit us up.
- How they met: Kimisha Hatfield was Ron Artest's girlfriend in high school. They finally wed once Ron Ron made the NBA and have four children together.

- UPDATE: 05-16-2012: And there's this: Per Shannon Brown's Twitter feed....
Ok let me put a end to this right now before it goes any further. I DID NOT SLEEP WITH @paugasol woman!!! First and last time addressing it!
Nothing like Shannon Brown starting a rumor about him very few had ever heard of, huh?
*********
05-12-2001: According to Ramona Shelburne of ESPNLosAngeles.com, who caught up with Pau Gasol after his exit interview, all of the rumors about Pau Gasol breaking up with his girlfriend Silvia Lopez-Castro are false. She spoke with Pau, who told her that he and his girlfriend "are fine, we're happy, we're doing well". In addition, Pau Gasol said that he are fine as well, shooting down the rumors that Kobe Bryant's wife, Vanessa Bryant, had anything to do with any troubles between Gasol and his fiance. Pau did however, seem to verify that he and Lopez Castro were having some slight troubles when he said that she "was suffering because she saw me suffering. And I was suffering because I was seeing her suffering". As Fat Bastard once said, it's a vicious cycle. You eat because you're unhappy and you're unhappy because you eat. Pau, we think there's someone you should get in touch with and forgive: yourself.
05-06-2011: There are rumors flying around that Pau and his fiance are calling it quits and that Kobe Bryant's wife had a part in it, at least according to Gasol. Andrew Bynum started the gossip mill churning with the infamous, "trust issues," comment to reporters after their game 2 loss to the Mavericks. Following their sweep to Dallas, Gasol indicated off the court issues, stating “I have to learn from this. I have to learn that when something happens off the court, you have to keep it off the court.”
Earlier this week, Kobe brushed off reports of in -stand-wife-fighting with a terse statement; "They barely know each other."
Hopefully if Pau is dealt to Orlando this summer, the real story will come out. Until then,... the rumors will have to suffice.
- Time Together: Pau and Sylvia met while she was working as a Cheerleader at Poland's Eurobasket tournament, where Pau's team and homecountry Spain won the gold medal in 2009. The two now live together in Manhattan Beach. There are whispers that the two are engaged, though at this time, unconfirmed.
- Resume: Sylvia works as a cheerleader for Dream Cheers, who are a traveling cheerleading squad. They frequently perform at halftime of various professional European basketball games, including at those of FC Barcelona, Pau's former team.

- UPDATE: 09-21-2011: Looks like it's time for Ron Artest to head home to his wife - Ron Ron, now referred to legally as Metta World Peace, has been eliminated from season 13 of Dancing with the Stars.
*******
08-30-2011: Ron Artest's girlfriend, Ron Artest's wife - who cares? Huge news today, Ron Artest has been announced as a contestant on season 13 of Dancing with the Stars!
*******
06-25-2011: As if his behavior up until now wasn't strange enough, Ron Artest has recently filed paperwork to legally change his name to Metta World Peace. It's hard to make something like world peace seem crazy, but I think Ron has managed to do that.
*******
Given Ron Ron's recent suspension from game 3 of the Western Conference semi-finals against the Mavericks, it seems like he'll have some extra down time to sort out his wife versus girlfriend situation.
- Fast Facts: Despite Ron Artest being married to his wife Kimisha Hatfield, Ron has been seen out lately quite a bit with a woman who isn't his wife. From various reports around the Internet, it appears that Ron Artest's girlfriend is Shin Shin, a singer of Chinese and Korean descent. Based on the sheer number of times they have appeared in public together, and the poses they choose to take for cameras, it looks pretty obvious to us that Shin Shin is Ron Artest's mistress. Or, if you believe him, she is simply "talent" that he signed to his record label Tru Warier. Too bad she isn't actually listed on his website, which definitely brings into question the validity of that. Anyone's guess as to how Ron Artest's wife feels about this, but based on her appearance - I'm sensing another brawl in the Palace style fight on the horizon for those two.

The Story
- Time Together: The two met in 2009 while filming a video for Monica's song, Love All Over Me (which sounds flat out dirty if you ask me.
The two dated for a few months before getting engaged in October, 2010, which they announced via Twitter.
The two were secretly married on November 22, 2010 in Los Angeles. They plan to hold a reception/celebration in June, probably as soon as the Celtics finish beating the Lakers in oh, lets say 5 games...
- Resume: We don't have enough white space to cover this:
Monica is probably best known as an R&B singer, having sold more than 20 Million albums worldwide, and topping the Billboard charts in a career spanning over 15 years now.
While her singing career churns on, she has also embraced other opportunities, including trying her chops at acting on both TV and movies. The rumor mill says that she's being considered as the main character in the remake of The Bodyguard.
Monica has also had a successful reality TV career, with her most recent show being the 2nd highest rated premiere in BET history.
