Trash talking can send you straight to the cheap seats…Just ask Ms. Union.
By: Taren Vaughan
NBA superstar Dwyane Wade and Actress Gabrielle Union have been an item for a minute now. And of course, like any supportive girlfriend would, she makes it a point to show up at his games, front and center, cheering him on.
Only thing is the cheering that she does is nothing reminiscent of “Bring It On”.
“I’m like dance mom. … I’ve become like Bobby Knight and like the Great Fettucini, it’s bad. I scream like ‘brick!’ and ‘air ball!'”
Sounds like the typical fan comments to me.
Oh but that’s not where it stops with this sports fanatic.
Union admits that her mouth can be a little out of control sometimes and no one is safe, not even the elderly:
“Recently, like maybe last week, there was an older ref, perhaps it was Dick Bavetta, and I said, ‘You’ll get your Viagra if you just make a call,'”
All that huh Gabrielle?
Taking shots at a 72 year-old ref’s sex life will probably send you straight to the nosebleed section.
Her philosophy…If I don’t say it, someone else will.
Yet it wasn’t the ref himself who told her to chill out on the insults. But it was her man, letting her know that her courtside chatter wasn’t needed.
Nothing wrong with showing your support for your man.
But when your display gets you ejected from front court seating, you might want to take it down a notch.
Union is starring in the movie “Think Like A Man,” which hits movie theaters this week.
