Amar'e Stoudemire And Ciara Date Night

So maybe this will kill the gay rumors about C-error, not to mention why she's always tagging alone with B.f.f. La La Vazquez at the Knicks games these days.  It appears Ciara has bagged herself a track-star.

Knicks star Amar'e Stoudemire has set his sights on Grammy-winning singer and model Ciara.  New York's hottest sports hero has been spotted dining out with the stunning songbird in recent weeks, and on Monday night, the pair shared dinner at STK with a group of 15, including fellow Knick Carmelo Anthony and his wife, LaLa Vazquez. But sources tell us Amar'e and Ciara have also been seen together alone at the restaurant and at other Meatpacking hot spots.

One said, "Ciara is best friends with LaLa and has been attending Knicks games with her, including Monday's game. Through Melo and LaLa, her friendship with Amar'e has developed. They have been seen out together on numerous occasions."

Last night, the Knicks threw an official "Welcome to New York" party for Carmelo at Abe & Arthur's. Sources said the team booked a private room for the 75-person bash and ordered a three-tier cake decorated with Melo's jersey, yellow taxi cabs and the New York skyline.

We applaud Ciara, with weak album sales and basically no checks coming in, why not mirror B.f.f.'s La La, and Kim Kardashian with Athlete significant others. We see you Ciara trying to become a real Basketball wife. (Cha-Ching)!  (Read More)
