As you've probably heard by now, spoiled rotten prima donna basketballer Carmelo Anthony was finally traded away from the Denver Nuggets to the New York Knicks where his cry-baby me-first attitude will be a much better fit... until they go on a losing skid. Then they'll want to run him out of town as badly as he wanted out of the Mile High City. Anyways, you might think this is just a sports story then. WRONG.
You see, 'Melo is married to actress and 'television personality' La La Vazquez. And her life is currently being documented for posterity in the VH1 series "La La's Full Court Wedding". And now that they're moving to The Big Apple - VH1 has decided to team up with her again for the new series "La La's Full Court Life" (working title) slated for premiere in August, 2011. It will be a 10 episode, 30 minute docu-series, and began filming in January right where the wedding series left off.
Here's what VH1 has to say about the new show:
The wedding may be over but the fun is just beginning for La La. With the sudden news that her husband is being traded to the New York Knicks, La La will deal with new adventures in matrimony and parenthood as she prepares to move back home to New York City. Along the way, viewers will also see La La juggle her busy acting and television hosting career and seek advice from some of her famous friends, including 50 Cent, Kelly Rowland, Trina and Serena Williams to name a few.
"Viewers connect with La La because despite the fairy tale wedding and NBA star husband, she is a real, down to Earth, hardworking woman who stays true to herself," said Jeff Olde, EVP, Original Programming and Production, VH1. "The best thing about the new series is that while pursuing and realizing her dreams, La La gets to take us back to her home in New York, where her story began."
La La Vazquez will also be participating in a live chat with VH1 on Twitter during the 7pm and 11pm encore broadcasts of "La La's Full Court Wedding" on Sunday, February 27. Viewers can join by following @LaLa and @VH1, and via the hashtag #FullCourtWedding. VH1.com will be home to show information, video clips, full episodes and more when the series premieres.
