Hasheem Thabeet Has No Clue Who Michael Phelps Is
College Basketball, Michael Phelps April 9th. 2009, 9:45am
More ammo for his mom’s tell-all book:
“Michael was … drinking straight from a bottle of Grey Goose, and when the deejay started playing M.I.A.’s ‘Paper Planes,’ he got up, started dancing like a loon and kept on yelling, ‘Shots!’”
… the champ recognized UConn basketball player Hasheem Thabeet and went over to introduce himself. “Hasheem had absolutely no clue who Michael was, and [Phelps] walked away looking a little embarrassed.”

I know the dude is from Tanzania or some place like that, but how can you not know who Phelps is? Did he not watch any tv from July-January?

How do you not know who Phelps is? You must have only been watching the home and garden channel for the last 2 years. I bet Thabeet did know and didn’t give a fuck and blew him off.

some people live in different worlds.
