UPDATE: Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown has stepped into a comedic spotlight as a pre-audition judge for Druski’s “Coulda Been Records” auditions held in Boston just hours before the Celtics’ season opener. This unexpected role comes as the team prepares for a critical matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers on September 27, 2023.
Brown’s participation mirrors that of Lamar Jackson, who previously judged in May, and his lively antics made waves on social media. He evaluated contestants vying for a chance to impress Druski, the fictional label’s CEO, and advance to the next round.
During the auditions, Brown showcased his humor, taking on an alter ego as an aspiring rapper named “Blicky,” hilariously donning a Jayson Tatum jersey. In a standout moment, he joked with a contestant, suggesting her presence signaled she would be ideal for Druski’s reality dating show, adding,
“She needs to be on ‘Coulda Been Love,’ that’s a keeper right there for Druski.”
Brown also engaged with a contestant named “BStar,” playfully asking what WNBA team she played for. He quickly recognized her talent and sent her on to the official audition stage. His final approval went to a contestant named “Smeet,” who delivered a motivational speech inspired by the iconic film “Rocky.”
As the Celtics gear up for a challenging season, Brown’s side venture not only showcases his personality but also brings a fun distraction to fans. Earlier today, he scored 25 points, grabbed 6 rebounds, and dished out 4 assists in a narrow loss to the 76ers, ending the game at 117-116.
With the Celtics’ season opener looming, Brown’s role in Druski’s auditions has created a buzz that extends beyond the basketball court. Fans are encouraged to tune in as the auditions will likely feature more surprises and laughter in the days ahead. Don’t miss out on this unique blend of sports and entertainment!
