It's been speculated that Chris Brown and Rihanna were no longer a couple, but after a Twitter user said that the FIERCE hotties were still an item, the Don't Judge Me singer seemed worry free as he hit up Madison Square Garden with Spike Lee yesterday.

Breezy and the legendary film marker were spotted in New York City enjoying the Boston Celtics vs. New York Knicks game on Easter Sunday, and while Brown is dealing with his break up rumors, it looked like he was in a deep convo about his life with Spike as they sat court side at the hoop game.

Mike Tyson has a show on broadway!

Kinda the last thing you'd have expected from the former champ.

The show is called Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth and it's a one man show about his own life.

It's written by Kiki Tyson, his third wife, and directed by his good friend Spike Lee.

It's apparently self-deprecating, funny and intense.

It certainly had some star drawing power, because the celebs were out in force!

Mike Tyson, Spike Lee, Donald Trump, Derek Jeter, C.C. Sabathia, Robert Townsend and many more all showed up!

Check out all the arrivals (below)!

Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson cried with laughter at Mike Tyson's Broadway show!

With appearances in all three Hangover movies and his own Broadway show directed by Spike Lee, Mike Tyson's career is booming these days!

His revitalized star is rising so quickly that he's even become the spokesman for a new Polish energy drink.

In the latest nonsensical ad for Black Energy Drink (above), the former heavyweight champ sings while playing the piano in front of hot models. He then takes a sip and goes nuts. Because that's how black works.

Or something like that.

We're not sure what to make of this, but wonder what it would have looked like if Spike Lee directed instead.

Brad Pitt may be portraying one of the baseball biz's biggest names, Billy Beane, in the upcoming film Moneyball, but the actor admitted his knowledge of the sport doesn't compare to his character's.

While doing press rounds for the fall sports drama he shared, "It's shameful how little I know."

It doesn't sound like his son, presumably his oldest Maddox, is developing anymore of any interest than his dad either. Brad shared a story about his first bit of baseball bonding with his boy, saying:

"I took my son to a game, a Yankees game, with Spike Lee and his sons. He's right next to the dugout, He's got the great seats and he's really involved with the Yankees. He talks to the players as they are in the batting circle, and it is customary for the heroes to bring out some of the cracked bats and give them to the kids."

Brad continued to explain that Spike Lee introduced him and his son to one of the most well-known players of the era, Derek Jeter, who "couldn't have been more chill."

The shortstop even handed a customary cracked bat to Brad's son, but to his dismay the boy replied, "It's broken!"

Ha! Hopefully Maddox will understand the treasure he acquired one day, but then again, maybe baseball just isn't his thing!
