Will.i.am Aims for Miami Dolphins
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Music, Sports,
After jumping from record tracks to the big screen in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Will.i.am now aims for sports, proclaiming his desire to become an American football player.
The “Boom Boom Pow” rapper has taken to his blog to beg for a chance to try out for the Miami Dolphins: “I always wanted to play football, from the age of 10—that was my dream. I always loved the game of American football. I’m sad that I never followed my football dreams. Lately I’ve been thinking, is it too late to do it now? No way! I want to try out for the Miami Dolphins.”
The 34-year-old star goes on to boast about how quickly he can run—he even challenges 100m sprint world record holder Usain Bolt to a race—claiming his prowess would be an asset to any team.
Referring to former Atlanta Falcons running back Jamal Anderson, will.i.am claimed, “I’m very fast, beyond fast. I’ve raced Jamal Anderson and I smoked his a*s. I am extremely fast and I’m proud of it. I take pride in my cheetah speed. So I want to put this talent to use.”

Joaquin Phoenix the Rapper: Just a PR Stunt?

When Academy Award nominee Joaquin Phoenix announced his retirement from film, the news came as a bit of a shock. When he further stated that he’d be eschewing screen fame for the music industry, it was quite a surprise.
But when we heard him perform, everyone began to wonder if perhaps Phoenix wasn’t as serious as he originally sounded in his statement. Surely a guy with his acting chops can’t hope to survive on bad raps!
Now, new rumors are coming to light in this odd little acting/rapping melodrama. Some say Phoenix is working with Casey Affleck on a documentary which films the actor’s odd behavior (including his Las Vegas performance, which ended with Phoenix falling off the stage).
A source with no name told EW very plainly that Phoenix himself stated, “It’s a put-on.” As in, one big hoax.
Is it?
