Anthony proposed Christmas Day Associated Press DENVER -- Nuggets star Carmelo Anthony finally has some good news about his personal life: He's engaged to MTV veejay La La Vasquez. Anthony, who won a national championship in his only season at Syracuse, said Thursday he made his proposal, accompanied by a nine-carat ring, on Christmas Day and Vasquez accepted. They haven't set a wedding date. The engagement follows a series of unflattering off-the-court news about the Nuggets' second-year star. Anthony was charged with misdemeanor drug possession in October after airport inspectors found mar1juana in his backpack. The charge was dropped after a friend said the pot was his. In November, three men were arrested on suspicion of trying to extort $3 million from Anthony with a videotape of the bar fight, which erupted after someone spit a drink on Vasquez in Manhattan in September. In early December, Anthony popped up on a homemade DVD circulating in Baltimore, his hometown, called "Stop Snitching." Someone else on the DVD warns that people who tip police about drug deals "get a hole in their head." Anthony said he had nothing to do with the DVD and condemned the message. He said it was made while he was visiting friends. Anthony had denied he and Vasquez were engaged as recently as Monday. In a statement issued Thursday, Anthony explained that he "wasn't ready for everyone to know." Link
The pot in the bag, the petulance in Athens, the bar scrap, and the DVD incident I can handle. But getting married at the age of 20? That's NOT COOL. Dammit, Melo, run while you can.
Are you suggesting tha Raven Simmon is not fine? Personally, I will give La La a 5.7 which is above the average beauty line.
I used to watch Direct Effect on MTV and La La was just not pretty at all. She didn't know how to do her make up right until last year. If you see her on TV, she doens't look that great, but she is photogenic though.
I got all excited yesterday when I read on my AOL homepage "NBA star gets ring." And I thought to myself, who, from the Pistons, didn't get a ring. Then, I figured maybe Bob Sura was getting his championship ring. Then I read that article. I was kind of pissed, only because I don't give a damn. But hey, whatever, congrats to Melo, even though I hate him. And what's the fight over lala all about? She's a good looking girl. Not my type, but I would hardly say she is ugly.
