Do you remember the time (couldn’t resist!) when Michael Jackson did a voice on The Simpsons? Remember how everyone was excited to hear him sing “Happy Birthday Lisa” on the show, but he wasn’t allowed to because of contract restrictions so they had a sound-alike do it? Well now, thanks to YouTube, we have a version of the song by the REAL Michael Jackson. Check it out!

My interview with TheNoLookPass
I did another interview about the NBA and social media. This one was with Rey-Rey from TheNoLookPass.com. We started this interview way back in April and didn’t officially finish it until last week. Check it out!
I recently talked to Alexis Gentry, the daughter of Phoenix Suns’ head coach, Alvin Gentry. I thought she’d be a good person to talk to when it comes to NBA-related stuff. I mean, being an NBA coach’s daughter, I thought she could provide a view on what it’s like to be in that position. Alexis also runsTrashwire.Com, a very good entertainment news site that has TV, movie, and concert reviews among other things. Also, if you’re into Big Brother, check that out as well.
Ms. Gentry was kind enough to answer all the questions I had in the E-Mails we exchanged and was quite candid in this conversation. I’m in purple and Alexis is in orange. It’s no secret what team she roots for. Duh.

My interview with ValleyoftheSuns.com
If you haven’t already seen my tweets about this, here’s a link to my interview with ValleyoftheSuns.com about the NBA and social media. Check it out!
When Suns head coach @AlvinGentry first started tweeting, he credited his daughter for getting him to join Twitter.
So who better to go to for the second part of ValleyoftheSuns’ in-depth look at social media and the NBA than Alexis Gentry herself?
OK, so the head coach has only sent out a happy Fourth of July tweet since the draft lottery, but he provided some insightful commentary on the Suns’ season last year and promises to do so again this season.
Alexis answered a couple of my questions via e-mail about how her dad got on Twitter, what grade she’d give him as a tweeter and what she’s doing with her entertainment Web site, Trashwire.com.

Ricky Gervais and Russell Brand
Here’s video of Ricky Gervais and Russell Brand at Live Earth on the red carpet. If we could throw Stephen Merchant in there, I think this video would basically describe my British comedy heaven.
