If this yo-yo Sasha, her betrothed, is a "star," so am I.

Well, at least this could dispel talk that Maria is bi- or homosexual.

"Sasha Vujacic, Maria Sharapova engaged to be married"

By Cindy Boren
October 22, 2010

Los Angeles Lakers star Sasha Vujacic reportedly has popped the
question to tennis star Maria Sharapova. And, according to multiple
gossip sites, the two are engaged to be married (completely
overshadowing teammate Shannon Brown putting a ring on Monica's
finger).

Will they be like Evan Eva and Tony, Derek and Minka, Mia and Nomar,
Becks and Vicky, Gretzky and Janet, Melo and Lala, LeBron and South
Beach or more like Marilyn and Joe, Rick and Vanessa, Romo and
Jessica, Chris and Greg, A-Rod and Madonna/Kate/Cameron/himself? Who
knows?

Before we completely burst their bubble, let us revel in the triumph
of love (and not in the tennis pun way). In this celebrity couple,
Sharapova, 23, is the known quantity. (Google her name and click on
"Images" if you're drawing a blank.) Sasha, 26, is another matter. He
won a ring with the Lakers, but you may not know that (thanks to
famecrawler):

1. Sasha is of Serbian descent, and he is also known as "The
Machine", his nickname playing for the Los Angeles Lakers. He plays
shooting guard for them.

2. Vujacic's father is a basketball coach, and he began playing
professionally in Italy at the age of 16.

3. He won a Silver Medal at the 2002 European Junior Championship
as a member of the Slovenian Junior National Team.

4. Sasha was drafted by the Lakers in 2004, and was the 27th pick
in the NBA draft.

5. His parents live in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, and he has
one brother and one sister. Sasha currently resides in Redondo Beach,
California

So now all you need to know is where they're registered (candlesticks
make a nice gift).

Who here thinks Maria is still a virgin?

You know, her father kept her on a real short, uh ... leash.

A dickie-quickie is ONE thing, but eatin' -- while not cheatin' --
takes more time. Usually.

well, I wasn't aware of such talk, but being engaged (or even married)
to someone of the opposite sex doesn't prove you're straight (indeed,
who is a poor bisexual girl like Lisbeth Salander supposed to marry - a
guy and a girl?).

BTW, Christine O'Donnell and Ginni Thomas in the same thread?! the mind
boggles (yes, that nutty wife is Ginny, but still).

Anyone who thought Shara was a leso is prettty fucking clueless.

Read the books, people! I haven't seen the movies but they are never
as good as the books. As for the books, all were really good, but
clearly the first wasn't as good as the second and third.
