Drake has revealed that he can’t speak during Toronto Raptors broadcasts for the next year. Hitting Instagram, Drake wrote on his story: “@raptors how long is my headphone ban?? I…
Despite being an introvert, Kawhi Leonard has gone viral a few times for his one-liners. Now he’s reportedly trying to monetize from it.
Washington, D.C. trademark lawyer Josh Gerben tweeted that the Clippers player is trying to trademark two of his catchphrases. Leonard filed the application last week.
Kawhi Leonard has filed two new trademark applications:
1. WHAT IT DO BABY 2. CITY VIEWS OVER INTERVIEWS
The applications, filed on October 23rd, indicate that Kawhi intends to use the trademarks as a clothing brand.#kawhi#ClipperNation
The phrase comes from a now viral video of him in a car with his then-teammate Serge Ibaka after winning the championship. Ibaka panned the screen on the former Raptors star and he greeted his one million followers with one line: “What it do baby.”
The Beyhive is notorious for attacking anyone who they feel threatens Beyoncé. However, there’s no actual way to tell if Queen Bey actually feels threatened or not because she keeps a low-profile for the most part.
The singer’s longtime publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, shared a message with her fan base about the importance of showing love to everyone.
“[The tour] was a place of joy, unimaginable entertainment from two of the best performers in the world, and a place of love,” Noel-Schure told fans. “Every single day on that tour I saw love. Which is why I also want to speak here to the beautiful BeyHiVE. I know your love runs deep but that love has to be given to every human. It will bring no joy to the person you love so much if you spew hate in her name.”
Nicole Curran, who’s married to the Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob, addressed the now-viral clip that sent the Hive in a frenzy.
“There was no hostility,” Curran, who says she invited the couple to the game and was simply asking if the couple wanted any drinks, reportedly told ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne. “I was trying to be a good hostess. I’ve never experienced cyber bullying like this. I can’t believe our players go through this. That kids go through this.”
Shelburne tweeted that Curran was receiving death threats and deactivated her social media after being attacked by the Beyhive.
Drake is having the best time as he enjoys the Raptors’ success. The “We The North” franchise is now making its first appearance in the NBA Finals. The last time the Raptors got close to a NBA Finals berth was in 2001. Unfortunately, Vince Carter missed a buzzer beat against Allen Iverson and the 76ers. Peep the highlights of the game below.
Behind the leadership of Kawhi Leonard, Toronto won four straight games after falling behind 0-2 in the Eastern Conference Finals. Toronto Raptors Ambassador and number one fan was criticized for his in-game, court-side antics by the Bucks head coach, Mike Budenholzer.
“I see it in some timeouts, but I don’t know of any person that’s attending the game that isn’t a participant in the game a coach — I’m sorry, a player or a coach that has access to the court.”
Budenholzer’s was unaware of Drake’s title within the Raptors organization. Drizzy’s pride and passion was on full display after the Raptors Game 5 win.
Gucci Mane and Drake traded jabs once Won declared he was rooting for Milwaukee. Drake obviously came out on top and mentioned the 1017 CEO in an hilarious picture on his IG story.
In addition, the Bucks’ co-owner’s daughter, sat court-side wearing a Pusha T graphic tee in Game 5. That didn’t do any good because the Bucks lost and it amplified Drake’s energy. Now the Toronto Raptors gear up to play the Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals. There are two upsides. The Raptors have home court advantage and the Warriors will likely be without KD for both games 1 and 2. Catch game 1 on Thursday at 9 PM EST on ABC.
