Who is Jayson Tatum's girlfriend? Meet singer Ella Mai, the rumored mother of NBA star's child
Ella Mai may be best known for her breakout hit 'Boo'd Up,' but over the past few years, she's also gained attention for her rumored relationship with Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum. The NBA superstar and Grammy-winning R&B singer have spent years dodging public scrutiny about their relationship. Despite their silence, their ongoing presence in each other's lives has made headlines many times over the years, from the early rumors in 2020 to Olympic sightings with their alleged child in 2024. Their romance may have unfolded mostly behind the scenes, but fans have managed to piece together a surprisingly detailed picture of their relationship. Clues, concerts, and carefully timed appearances Their connection didn't begin with a red carpet debut; it started with overlapping locations and raised eyebrows. In late 2020, viewers noticed Mai livestreaming from a space that looked a lot like Tatum's home, per People. That sparked speculation, but it wasn't the first sign. Months earlier, Tatum had reportedly flown to see Mai perform after a Celtics game. By 2022, they stopped trying to hide altogether. The pair attended Michael Rubin's White Party in the Hamptons and were later spotted at a Coney Island concert. When Tatum brought Mai to teammate Marcus Smart's wedding the next year, guests caught them singing and dancing to her own hit, 'Boo'd Up.' Clearly, she wasn't just a date—she was part of the circle. Olympic cheerleading, baby news, and matching ink Per the publication, Mai showed up courtside in 2024 for some of Tatum's biggest moments, including his NBA title win and Team USA's gold medal match in Paris. The quiet scenes of Mai holding a newborn in a video further hinted at something more personal. Later that summer, Page Six confirmed she and Tatum had welcomed a child. Though the pair didn't make an announcement, a clever Amica Insurance ad showed Tatum juggling dad duties, while a closing shot of three sneakers—adult, child, and baby—drove the message home. More recently, the couple got matching tattoos behind their ears: a tiny '3' meant to symbolize Mai's November 3rd birthday. Tatum has also been spotted with 'Deuce' and 'Dylan' written on his sneakers, possibly revealing the name of their second child.

LeBron James isn't thrilled about deepfake videos of him, and his legal team is taking action
NBA stars like LeBron James are no strangers to memes and viral internet content about their lives being circulated online. However, a new trend of people creating deepfake videos has recently cropped up, and as per AI platform FlickUp's founder Jason Stacks, the Los Angeles Lakers player is not that thrilled about it. LeBron James is not happy about people making deepfake videos of him.(AP) Cease-and-desist letter In a recent Instagram reel, Stacks revealed that James's legal team had issued him a cease-and-desist letter in lieu of the deepfake content being created using his platform. 'This is a letter from one of the biggest NBA players of all time. Two months ago, I launched the YouTube of AI video. It was a fun idea to help creators make some more money. But then people started noticing … Like this guy, yeah, LeBron James. And he wasn't happy, because I got this cease-and-desist from his team,' says Stacks. "I'm so f**ked 😭,' he wrote in the caption. This is in reference to multiple deepfake videos created by online users, including one where James is pregnant with Golden State Warriors' Stephen Curry's baby. Former teammate speaks in support James's former teammate Richard Jefferson spoke up in support of the player's attempt to remove content potentially harmful to his image during a recent appearance on the Road Trippin' podcast. We see the value in name, image, and likeness,' he claimed. 'This is one of the issues with AI. All of a sudden, videos depicting whatever you want. They're saying whatever you want. Think for all human beings, what people are doing isn't a positive thing. Kendrick Perkins, Jefferson's co-host, also spoke up on the matter. 'If it is true that LeBron and his team are sending out those cease and desists and stopping that s***, I'm all for it,' he said. 'You have one name. Protect that m*********** name!' This is one of many efforts of James's legal team to take charge of his online narrative and address issues concerning the illicit use of famous personalities. It also points out the dangers of the unregulated use of such technology. By Stuti Gupta

Stephen Curry gets real about his ‘surreal' friendship with the Obamas
NBA and American politics haven't always been the most interconnected of worlds, but when they do meet, they have proven to deliver beautiful friendships in return. One such example would be the close bond Golden State Warriors' Stephen Curry shares with former President Barack Obama and his family. Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry opened up on his bond with the Obama family.(AP) Stephen Curry opens up on close bond with the Obama family During a recent appearance on 360 With Speedy, Curry opened up on his bond with the Obama family while discussing the launch of Plezi: a flavored drink company run by him in collaboration with former First Lady Michelle Obama. When asked if he shares a close relationship with them, Curry replied, 'As you can imagine, there are uh there are levels to what it means to be a part of the Obama family. But they're accessible. Let's put it that way." 'The friendship is there. The mentorship is there. President Obama's been an unbelievable voice for me in terms of certain things. I can just call him, ask him a question. He's always hyping me up on the court and to have now something that we get to do with Michelle, something that she's passionate about for a while. It has taken her time to develop a product, and she stands behind it.' It's still surreal to even talk like that, but those are good people to be partners with. For sure. They are amazing people, and it's been cool to get to know them over the years,' he added. Barack Obama's association with basketball During his time in office, President Obama was a huge fan of the sport himself. He would frequently host private games at the White House featuring some of the best players in the league. He was an ardent supporter who encouraged the sport and shared a close relationship with many players, Curry being one of them. By Stuti Gupta
