Kim Kardashian may be able to boast a hefty bank balance and a celebrity boyfriend, but the reality TV star has found herself a pariah among the Hollywood A-list, after Kanye's attempts to ingratiate his girlfriend into his all-star gang of pals failed embarrassingly.And perhaps growing increasingly aware of his relationship's effect on his fame, despite Kim being banned from attending the recent Met Gala Ball by Vogue's Anna Wintour, Kanye went ahead and attended without her."She was so upset that he went to the Met event without her," spilled a source. "Kim felt that he didn't ask for a ticket for her strongly enough and just accepted it when he was told there was no room."



Having seen her former pal Paris Hilton's star fade so abruptly, pals say Kim is aware that her fame has a shelf life no matter how much personal information she divulges on her reality TV show, and is keen to consolidate her place among the A-list."It's why she reacted so coldly when Kris Humphries told her that in a few years ‘no one will care about you'," spilled a pal. "She saw what has happened to Paris and it scares her that pretty soon the focus will be on the next big thing in reality TV. She knows that she has to make a bigger fame grab sooner rather than later."



And top of her list of ways to claw her way onto the A-list has been to ensure she gets close to Kanye's close friends Beyonce and Jay-Z."She'll do whatever she can to hang out with those guys," spilled one mole. "She does really like Kanye," spilled one. "But she also likes what Kanye comes with - a bona fide introduction to the likes of Beyonce, Jay-Z and Gwyneth Paltrow."However, despite new baby girl, Blue Ivy, taking up all her time, sources say the Crazy In Love star has made it clear she can't be associated with someone who came to prominence via a leaked intimate home movie."Beyonce hangs out with Chris Martin and Gwyneth - it's a totally different scene to the Hollywood club circuit," said an insider. "Beyonce prizes her privacy - it's why her marriage to Jay-Z was kept completely under wraps. Whereas Kim's short-lived marriage to Kris was a complete media circus. B thought it was tacky. She's not a fan of reality TV either."

From 1957 to 1969, the Celtics dominated the league winning 11 championships in 13 years, and eight in a row (1959–1966), the longest consecutive streak of any North American pro sports team.
The Celtics dominated the league during the late 1950s and through the mid 1980s, with the help of many Hall of Famers which include Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, John Havlicek, Larry Bird and legendary Celtics coach Red Auerbach, combined for a 795–397 record that helped the Celtics win 16 Championships. Before the retirement of the “Big Three”, who included Larry Bird, Robert Parish and Kevin McHale, thanks to some creative maneuvering by Auerbach, the Celtics had drafted second overall pick Len Bias but the team fell into decline as the college star died two days after he was drafted. Later, the team suffered another tragedy when their star player Reggie Lewis died of a heart attack in his prime.
The franchise returned to prominence during the 2007–2008 season when Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen joined Paul Pierce as the new "Big Three," leading the team to its 17th championship in 2008 and an Eastern Conference title in 2010. The Celtics have met the Lakers a record 12 times in the NBA Finals, including their most recent appearances in 2008 and 2010, with the Celtics winning nine and Lakers winning three. Later in 2010, the team made a remarkable comeback with point guard Rajon Rondo developing into a perennial all-star and having an outstanding performance throughout the season, bringing Celtics to higher record. Four Celtics (Bob Cousy, Bill Russell, Dave Cowens and Larry Bird) have won the NBA Most Valuable Player Award for an NBA record total of 10 MVP awards.Their mascot 'Lucky the Leprechaun' is an ode to the team's Irish heritage, as well as an ode to the large Irish-American population in Boston.

It may not feature Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquiao, but the "Four Warned" pay-per-view on June 2 promises to be a good one. The main event will feature former Light Heavyweight Champion Antonio "Magic Man" Tarver taking on undefeated Nigerian Lateef "Power" Kayode in a Cruiserweight grudge match.The 43-year-old Tarver bounced back from consecutive losses to Chad Dawson with decisive victories over Nagy Aguilera and Danny Green, so he enters his bout with Kayode with a lot of momentum. Despite his unblemished record, Kayode hasn't been at his best as of late. This has prompted Tarver, who moonlights as a Showtime analyst, to be quite critical of him.Perhaps it was all a ploy for Tarver to get a shot at the 29-year-old power puncher. If that was indeed the plan, then Tarver will certainly get what he wanted. Here is your complete guide for when and where to watch the clash between Tarver and Kayode on June 2.


Antonio Tarver :



Antonio Deon Tarver (born November 21, 1968), nicknamed the "Magic Man", is an American professional boxer and the former WBC, WBA, IBF, & The Ring light heavyweight champion.Tarver built an impressive amateur career, including winning a bronze medal while representing the United States at the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games. He captured the world title at the 1995 World Amateur Boxing Championships in Berlin, just two months after having triumphed at the Pan American Games in Mar del Plata.In 2006, Tarver starred as Mason "The Line" Dixon, the heavyweight champion in the film Rocky Balboa.

The Indiana Pacers :

The Indiana Pacers, who have won 16 of their last 20 games dating back to April 1, head into Miami's AmericanAirlines Arena riding a seven-game road winning streak. Indiana's last road loss came to the San Antonio Spurs back on March 31. The Pacers would steal home-court advantage and put all kinds of pressure on the defending Eastern Conference Champion Miami Heat if they can extend their road win streak to eight games.Prior to the start of Game 1, LeBron James will be presented with the 2012 NBA Most Valuable Player Award. Two years ago, when he was still a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers, James was presented with the 2010 MVP trophy before Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Boston Celtics spoiled James' MVP trophy presentation that night by beating the Cavaliers, 104-86, and stealing home-court advantage. Boston went on to win that series.

The Miami Heat :

The Miami Heat needed two chances to do it, but they did get it done. After taking a 3-0 series lead over the New York Knicks in the opening round of the 2012 NBA Playoffs, Miami lost Game 4 before closing the series with a 106-94 victory in Game 5.The Heat and their All-Star Trio of Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and LeBron James will now face the Indiana Pacers in an Eastern Conference semifinals matchup. The Pacers, who will be appearing in the second round of the postseason for the first time since 2005, earned their trip to the conference semifinals by defeating the Orlando Magic 4-1.During the regular season, Miami and Indiana met four times with the Heat winning the series three games to one. On Sunday, May 13, the Miami Heat and Indiana Pacers will begin their Eastern Conference semifinals matchup.

The San Antonio Spurs will spend the next few days resting up for the Western Conference Finals as the other six teams will each have a crucial Game 5 in their respective Round 2 NBA playoff series.This year's Spurs team is playing on a different level from every other team.



When critics floated out this may be the best Spurs team in the Tim Duncan era, you knew there was something special about this squad. San Antonio doesn't appear to have a weakness. It never beats itself, and the only team left in postseason that looks as if it can give the Spurs a series is the Oklahoma City Thunder.In the other Western Conference Round 2 series, the Thunder are pushing around the old Los Angeles Lakers as if they were Pete Campbell pushing around Roger Sterling on Mad Men. The times of the Lakers dominating with this current roster appear to be over and they show no signs of coming back. When it's over, you just know.The two Eastern Conference playoff series will likely be decided by the results of Game 5. The winner of Game 5 usually wins the series.

For younger fans, the rivalry between the Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics doesn't exist.But, older followers of The Association know better and if you grew up as a Sixers or Celtics loyalist in the 1960s or 80s, you were a part of the greatest rivalry in sports.If you think the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees' enmity is intense now -- you would have been captivated by the Sixers and Celtics. You see, comparing anything to Wilt's Sixers versus Russell's Celtics or Dr. J with his hands around Larry Bird's throat would be like saying Mayweather-Cotto was the equal of Ali-Frazier.The Sixers and Celtics had it all -- history, passion, hate, envy and perhaps what fuels a rivalry most -- similar talent on both sides.



That storied conflict will be renewed in the Eastern Conference semifinals when the two Atlantic Division combatants square off.Boston, the No. 4 seed which has won five straight Atlantic crowns since bringing in future Hall of Famers Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to team with Paul Pierce, punched its ticket to the semis by jettisoning fifth-seeded Atlanta in six games.Garnett swished a turnaround jumper with 30.4 seconds remaining to put the Celtics in front during the clincher and they held on from there for a dramatic 83-80 victory at TD Garden."Anytime you go through a series and you're able to come on top, that's always a plus," Garnett said. "Sure now we'll relax and enjoy this a little bit and then get back to work tomorrow, but yeah, it feels good."The Sixers, meanwhile, also advanced in six games, becoming just the fifth eight-seed in NBA history to dispose of a No. 1 by taking out the injury- plagued Chicago Bulls.The embattled Andre Iguodala drained two free throws with 2.2 seconds to play in Game 6 to lift Philadelphia in a thrilling 79-78 win.

The Indiana Pacers, who have won 16 of their last 20 games dating back to April 1, head into Miami's AmericanAirlines Arena riding a seven-game road winning streak. Indiana's last road loss came to the San Antonio Spurs back on March 31. The Pacers would steal home-court advantage and put all kinds of pressure on the defending Eastern Conference Champion Miami Heat if they can extend their road win streak to eight games.

Prior to the start of Game 1, LeBron James will be presented with the 2012 NBA Most Valuable Player Award. Two years ago, when he was still a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers, James was presented with the 2010 MVP trophy before Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Boston Celtics spoiled James' MVP trophy presentation that night by beating the Cavaliers, 104-86, and stealing home-court advantage. Boston went on to win that series.

If James and the Heat want to win Game 1 of this series and avoid duplicating that fateful night in Cleveland, they will have to put an end to Indiana's road winning streak. To do that, Miami will have to maintain its focus for a full 48 minutes.

The Heat need to remain engaged and focused at all times to win this series. So far in the playoffs, the Pacers are just one of three teams (the San Antonio Spurs and Miami Heat are the others) that have a double-digit efficiency differential. Indiana is a gritty, hard-working team that will find ways to take advantage of any lackadaisical play by the Heat.
To give themselves a chance at winning this matchup, the Pacers will have to limit their turnovers. Indiana must remain aware of LeBron James and Dwyane Wade lurking in the passing lanes. During the playoffs, both James (2.20) and Wade (2.80) are averaging more than two steals per game. As a team, Miami forced the New York Knicks into 92 turnovers over the course of five games during the first round.

The Pacers, who will have enough trouble guarding James and Wade in Miami's half-court offensive sets as it is, cannot afford to give the Heat easy transition buckets by turning the ball over. If Indiana wants to continue moving forward in the postseason, the Pacers will have to limit Miami's transition opportunities and do a much better job than New York did in protecting the ball from the Heat.
Prediction: Heat 4-1

Will Chelsea finally achieve their goal of winning the Champions League, or will Munich win their fifth European crown? Let’s look at everything you need to know for the 2012 Champions League Final.


Chelsea vs Bayern Munich
Venue : Allianz Arena; Munich, Germany
Time : Saturday, May 19 at 2:45 p.m. ET



Prediction: Munich wins 3-1

Without the defensive talents of Terry and Branislav Ivanovic, Bayern Munich will score three goals in the final, which will be enough to carry them to their fifth European crown.
Chelsea will find the back of the net once, but they don’t have the firepower to compete with the Munich attack, especially with world-class goalkeeper Manuel Neuer in top form for the Germans.Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo has expressed that his team is very confident after beating Barcelona, saying via Soccernet:




Most Important Player: Didier Drogba


Didier Drogba needs to score and play well for Chelsea if they want to capture the European crown. He impressed against Barcelona in the semifinal and is one of the most clutch players in club football.



Drogba must use his size and strength to his advantage over a Munich defense that isn’t very big and is not used to dealing with strikers as powerful as him.
Chelsea doesn’t have many primary attacking options, so Drogba will need to dominate for the Blues’ attack to be effective in the final.

It’s hard to imagine a scenario where Chelsea has success if Drogba plays poorly.
