Labels: Hosea Chanchez, Mara Brock Akil, Pooch Hall, The Game
Hosea Chanchez, who stars on the CW's sports comedy/drama "The Game," which was recently renewed for a third season, tells the National Ledger that he has been surprised at the amount of professional athletes who watch the show. "We've actually been told by professional athletes -- and a lot of people in that industry who are trying their hardest to get on our show -- that we're one of the few who got in right," claims Chanchez about the content of the show, which follows the fictional lives of several professional football players and their wives. "It's a complete honor to do something and do it correctly." While Chanchez is admittedly not a football fan, he says there is one athlete he would like to see be a guest star on the show. "I would love to see Michael Jordan come on the show." Now, wait a second! "I know he's not a football player," adds Chanchez with a laugh, "but he is the man."

A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR
Labels: Hosea Chanchez
When anyone of us have a bad hair day we can usually make it thru the day with just a few awkward glances from strangers who pass us by. But when your the star of a new hit show a bad hair day can become a blogosphere nightmare. That was exactly the case for Hosea when he attended the CW launch party and photos of him at the event hit the net. As a casual reader of Media Take Out I ran across a post that did not have the nicest comments about Hosea's haircut. Despite the fact a down to earth Hosea contacted Media Take Out to thank them for putting him on blast. Here's what he had to say:
I woke up this morning with calls and e-mails from all my folks. I didn't really know why until ..... I checked my shyt and low and behold... Damn, yall got me! LOL You can't argue with what's real. My haircut was f'd up. I was hoping that if I ever ended up on this site it would be for my charity work (yeah right). But hey, you'll be glad (or sad) to know that it won't be that way again. Cause a brotha makin' sure he don't go out wit his head looking like that again! Thanks Media Take Out, y'all do some good after all. LOL HOSEA AKA "Malik Wright"
Honestlty, it's great that he has a good sense of humor and can take it all in stride. Kudos to Hosea!
