Speaker 1 (00:00):
Caitlin's Entertainment Report and he's on the Fred Show.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Stephen A. Smith addressed that very tense looking confrontation between
he and Lebron James at the game Thursday night. So
if you missed it, here's what happened. He was sitting
down court side for the Lakers Knicks game in LA.
But what ended up getting more pressed than the game
itself was this exchange between he and Lebron.

Speaker 3 (00:24):
That was Lebron James coming up to me unexpectedly, I
might add, to confront me about making sure that I
mind what I say about his son. Can't repeat the
words because they ensued for FCC airwaves. That's what he
was doing. And I thought long and hard about this

(00:49):
over the last few hours because I had no intentions Wiley,
of talking about this at all.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Oh no, that And the reason.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Why is because it was a one on one I
wouldn't say a conversation, but it was a one on
one confrontation. But then I wake up and everybody from
ESPN and my agent and everybody else were sending me
that this thing had gone viral. So Jermado, ultimately it
was unavoidable, and that is why I have to discuss it.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Now he has to, he must discuss him. He said,
that wasn't a basketball player confronting me. That was a parent.
That was a father. I can't sit here and be
angry or feel slighted by Lebron James in that regard. Basically,
it was keep my son's name out of your mouth.

Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yeah, And you know, I think any parent would do that,
whether or not they were Lebron or not.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
I don't know. Actually, I feel like it's his job
to commentate.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
So my mom would do that. My mom would be
Lebron one hundred percent in that situation. I think your
mom would too.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Yeah, except I wouldn't be able to defend my mom
for that because this is what we signed up for.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
Yeah, but when you're a parent, you can't help sometimes
if you get heated. I don't blame Lebron, honestly, I
blame him for a lot of things, but not that.
Speaking of famous parents and backstory, boy Brian Latrelle could
barely keep it together as he's outside the doors during
his twenty two year old son Bailey's audition for American
Idol last night. He got like he was crying as
he told cameras how proud he was of his son.
During the season twenty three premiere, of course, judge Luke

(02:11):
Bryan had Brian come in. They harmonized, they sang, and
they all loved. All the judges loved Bailey singing, which like,
how can you not? His dad is in the Backstreet Boys,
but he's opened up for the band throughout the years.
