Sports and Celebrities = A Match Made in Heaven!
Categories: Casting Directors
If you’re in New York City right now, you’re probably hearing the echoing cheers of hundreds of Yankees fans. The ticker tape parade in honor of the Yankees kicks off at 11:00am at Battery Place and will proceed up the “Canyon of Heroes” to City Hall. There Mayor Bloomberg will present them with a Key to the City!
So what are you waiting for? Get downtown and be a part of the action! You could be interviewed by a multitude of media outlets and just get into the excitement of it all. And rumor has it that famous Yankee girlfriends Kate Hudson, Minka Kelly, and Gossip Girl actress Joanna Garcia will all be joining the parade!
Even if you’re not in New York or a Yankees fan, it’s always a great idea to brush up on your sports trivia. It’s a great conversation started with future employers and contacts, and so many celebrities are huge sports fans.
Some of the A-list attendees at the World Series included Spike Lee, Kate Hudson, Regis Philbin, Donald Trump, Jimmy Fallon, Lorne Michaels, and Rudy Guiliani, just to name a few. They all love the game and being a part of Yankee history.
Of course, celebs aren’t just crazy for baseball. Remember to be on the lookout for your favorite celebs at any game! Just last year I saw Ashlee Simpson and her husband Pete Wentz at a Knicks game. It made the game more fun to see these celebs in a real life situation and just enjoying themselves!
