According to the L.A. Times, Ron Artest is still unsure about whether he’ll appear on Dancing With the Stars. He does, however, plan to remarry his ex-wife. … “I haven’t thought about it yet. I like the show. Obviously, you have to dance. I play defense. I don’t know if I dance.” … And as far as his ex-wife, Kimsha, is concerned: “We’ve been together for 14 years. It doesn’t matter what our status is. We’re together. But we’re going to get married again. We’re planning to get married again. A nice big wedding. We’re good though.” [I am a GM]

Ron Artest can’t stay out of the news. Scarcely a day removed from him becoming the latest athlete mired in a cell phone penis photo controversy, we get a TMZ report on him. Fortunately for Artest, though, this one’s much less salacious.

Ron Artest would appear to be a likely candidate for having a picture of his penis strewn across the internet.

He’s shown questionable judgement in the past (this), is active enough online that he probably exchanges messages with female fans on a fairly frequent basis, and is comfortable enough with his body that he once approached Kobe Bryant to have a serious conversation while both men were naked in a shower.

This is a man, you’d say, who would text a girl a picture of his penis.

Like many other locked out athletes, Ron Artest is looking for work, and he may have just found his niche in stand-up comedy. The future Metta World Peace is embarking on a four-city comedy tour, and you can watch a clip from his debut in Los Angeles here.

Ron Artest’s desired name change (to “Metta World Peace”) inspired plenty of talk/snickering/eye-rolling, and now we have the viewpoint of Artest himself on the matter.

We like Ron Artest – how he’s embraced his off-beat persona, how he’s so dedicated to causes he believes in. So we’re not sure how to feel now that he doesn’t want to be Ron Artest anymore.

Ron Artest is no stranger to the Jimmy Kimmel Live set, but he looks like he’d rather be a stranger to most of these animals.

Late in the Lakers’ 93-81 loss to the Mavericks last night, Ron Artest did something very, very dumb.

Ron Artest might still be “that crazy guy” in the eyes of some, but his efforts to turn his past demons into positives are many, laudable…and now, award-winning.

Ron Artest announced on Twitter that he will be hosting a comedy tour this summer.
