Because you can’t be a successful athlete without someone claiming that you’re doing Kim Kardashian (that someone is Kim) Jeremy Lin had to shoot down rumors that he’s dating Kim. The best part? His reasoning is she isn’t even his type. So if you need another reason to love Jeremy, he doesn’t go for the whole “attention-seeking famewhore” type. And I found the perfect man. USA Today reports:
In it, the single, 23-year old Harvard graduate turned overnight NBA sensation shot down rumors he’s dating reality TV star Kim Kardashian who recently divorced Kris Humphries of the New Jersey Nets. “Stuff about me dating Kim Kardashian, I mean, I have no idea where that came from and all these other rumors,” said Lin, adding he doesn’t think they’re each others “type.”
It should be noted that this is the power of the Lin: He’s so hot, Kim is willing to humor the idea that the two of them would ever date. I mean granted, if the next big thing was a story about a dog who rescued a baby from a burning building, I have no doubt in my mind that Kim would try and claim that she was banging the dog. “Oh yeah, Fido? We’re together now. He’s great! I just rub his tummy and he goes right back to sleep … it’s like being back with Kris Humphries, in that I also had Kris’ balls cut off. It’s a sexual thing.”
