I Took Over a Thousand Photos of Famous Figures…

but this still shot I took of Ron Artest heading to his meet and greet event at Sportie LA in Melrose is probably my best celebrity photograph ever, and I took it on Black and White 35mm film.

Hanging out with Ron Artest at Melrose

Dude was at Sportie LA across from Fairfax High School (where the Red Hot Chilli Peppers got started at in the 80’s) promoting his sneaker line and a plug for the Lakers in this years playoffs. Photo taken by my homegirl Tina Templeton

By the way, this is the whip he rolled up in.

Its a Hyundai Genesis sedan all tricked out by Platinum Motorsport just down the street. 

Before I forget, big shoutout to the people at Tomato Pie Pizza Joint next door for their delicious Pizza slices. That place is a must if your around the Fairfax area. 

 

 

Laker Games Is A Marketing/Publicity Blitz

Real fans sit all the way at the top of Staples Center to risk getting squashed by Ron Artest on courtside by accident and having to go through plastic surgery to look like a celebrity, which is why there are no fans at courtside.

By the way, this is also for those who wants to get a glimpse of Kobe’s wife. Thank me later.
