Shaquille Oneal Engaged

Shaquille O'Neal, the new Boston Celtics center, may be engaged to girlfriend Nicole "Hoopz" Alexander, winner of the VH1 reality TV show "I Love Money."

O'Neal was in St. Louis on Monday and took Alexander and friends to Sahara Mediterranean Cuisine and Hookah Lounge for dinner. Lounge owner Sam David believes that is where O'Neal may have popped the question.

"I think he may have proposed to his girlfriend," Sam David told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "He brought a chair into the middle of the dance floor and he put a ring on her finger."

O'Neal has had a very busy summer already, airing the second season of his own TV show "Shaq Vs." and learning Hebrew.

Right, Real (who's real fine) proposed to her and she declined. When one of the other game contestants found out of the proposal, the guy said, "Real, you don't know her, you don't know anything about her and her lifestyle".

Oh please! Let's hope not! Hoopz has been around and around and around (from what I've read, don't know the child personally)....

Come on Shaq!! You'll always be one of my Favs, but I hope this isn't true! Just focus on the upcoming season, it could be your last! And Kobe still sucks, will always suck! Don't care how many rings he has! GO CELTICS!

Sigh....you're so right. But "Hating" on Kobe is just a way of life for this ex-Faker fan.....He's just so, so, freakin' HATEable! And no, I don't hate cuz he's great. I love LeBron, have since day one, and he's great, so that's not why I hate that obnoxious K. He just so, so, Kobe. And I despise his classless wife and beastly little children too!
