Ohio - Lebron James

Ohio - Lebron James

While John Havlicek and Steph Curry were both born in Ohio, you have to give the crown of Ohio to The King, Lebron James. There have been few physical specimens to lace up their kicks and hit the professional hardwood like LBJ. His freakish athletic ability and high basketball IQ has him in the talks of being one of the greatest to ever play the game. One of the most mystifying factors of his game has been his durability. For the first time in his career, last season (2018-19), we saw Lebron James miss an extended period of playing time due to a groin injury.

Now, in his second season with the Los Angeles Lakers and the newly-acquired Anthony Davis by his side, will LBJ be able to win a title with every franchise he's played for? With three NBA Championships under his belt, three NBA Finals MVPs, and five MVPs in seventeen years of NBA action, these upcoming few years could define his legacy. But regardless of what may occur, Lebron James will be considered a top ten NBA player will it is all said and done.

Did You Know...

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

II

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
