Ron Artest Los Angeles Lakers basketball player

Really?  Yes.  Really.  This is no joke.  Ron Artest is legally changing his name to Metta World Peace.  He filed papers with L.A. County Superior Court and will of course be granted the change.  What a tool though.  Seriously, I am all for world peace.  But I am not changing my name!

And in case you were wondering, he will of course have Peace on his Lakers jersey.
