February 16th 2008 02:43
It’s almost a given that those in entertainment circles want to be athletes; while sportspeople harbour dreams to be performers. So, it is no surprise that the
kick-off to All-Star festivities sees the twin concepts of sports and celebrity join forces in a star-studded spectacular.
The 2008 All-Star Celebrity game features musicians, actors and actual, for real basketball players, in a game of hoops shoot and giggles.
If past celebrity outings are anything to go by – expect some laughably sub-par basketball, but the occasional unexpected surprise that some of the more famous can actually ball. I mean, who would have thought that Steve Urkel is a great baller? And he is!
