It is no surprise that when prominent celebrities show up to watch athletes perform, they go out of their way to put on a show for them. This is most noticeable in the NBA, where key role players pull out moves they seldom resort to when prominent female rappers or celebrities are seated courtside.
The NFL does not have courtside seats, but they do have premier box suites. Athletes are less likely to realize who is present at games until the cameras pan onto them.
However, they can find out which athlete is present at the games through word of mouth. Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons is already one of the best linebackers in the NFL. Irrespective of which celebrity shows up at the game, he will perform.
But there is one special person who would make him take his game to the next level. In a recent social media video, Parsons revealed this special person’s name.
Guy or girl? A celebrity female, I’m not gonna lie. If Latto came up to Dallas and went crazy, I might have five sacks.
Micah Parsons said
The star linebacker has a crush on Alyssa Michelle Stephens, better known by her stage name, ‘Latto.’ Interestingly, she has been affiliated with the NFL before, and is a fan of the game.
The Cowboys should offer Latto a season ticket to ensure Micah Parsons consistently remains atop his game!
Before Super Bowl LIX, the NFL, in collaboration with YouTube, reached out to Kai Cenat and iShowSpeed to lead two seven-player teams in a flag football game.
Latto was part of Team Speed alongside Quavo, Sexxyy Red, Khaby Lame, PlaqueBoyMax, Mark Philips, Adam W, and Diana Flores. Unfortunately, there is no solid evidence to link Latto with being a die-hard fan of the Dallas Cowboys. However, that is unlikely to stop her from attending the team’s games or performing at AT&T Stadium if given an opportunity.
Micah Parsons is going to show up if Latto is present or not, but occasionally, when the Cowboys face the best offenses in the NFL, it would not hurt Jerry Jones to have Latto in the crowd. While her favorite NFL team remains a mystery, there have been other female celebs who have not kept their affiliation with the team a secret.
The most prominent names are Selena Gomez, Kelly Clarkson, who has recorded Get Up, which has become the team’s anthem, and Demi Lovato. The Cowboys remain one of the few teams that attract hordes of celebrity big names to their games.
As for Parsons, the linebacker remains focused on improving for the subsequent season. It is a crucial year for him, as Jerry Jones has yet to offer him a substantial extension. With the team being heavily criticized for its handling of the situation by fans, Parsons is not stressed about it.
Jones and Parsons have been at a crossroads regarding his contract. The owner and general manager of the team attempted to negotiate a deal with the linebacker without his agent, David Mulugheta, present. However, that attempt failed after Parsons publicly clarified that he would not exclude his agent from negotiation talks.
With no visible end in sight, it remains unclear how far along the two parties are in their contractual talks. However, Jones may end up offering his star defensive player an extension days before the season officially commences, as he did with Dak Prescott.
