Scottie Pippen Spotted at “Fast and Furious” Star’s Star-Studded Early Birthday Bash Capping off “Legendary” Night

From Anthony Edwards acting with Adam Sandler to Kawhi Leonard dancing in the background of a Drake music video, NBA athletes are now closer to celebrities and glamor than ever before. But one crossover that no one was expecting to see was Scottie Pippen partying with the ‘Fast and Furious‘ star Tyrese Gibson.

As Tyrese Gibson is approaching his 45th birthday, he decided to celebrate his whole birthday month rather than just his birthdate. So he recently had a grand birthday celebration for himself with many celebrities in attendance.

Scottie Pippen was partying with Tyrese Gibson

Tyrese Gibson is no stranger to putting on a show. But this time, he did it for himself. With his 45th birthday approaching on December 30th, Gibson has already started his birthday bash with a full-on party that included some heavy hitters on the guest list.

While the expected members, like his fast and furious cast mate Ludacris, were at the event, an unexpected figure was Chicago Bulls legend Scottie Pippen.

After the party, Gibson posted images and videos from his unforgettable night on social media. In the post, he also tagged Scottie Pippen along with some of his other friends in the industry.

Gibson wrote, “Last night was beyond legendary!! Shout to my real ones that showed up and showed out!! @scottiepippen @fuxor @quincy @ludacris Happy early birthday to me! Yup…. I’m wheels up for my actual 45th birthday Dec 30th I’m wheels UP for NEW YEARS!!!!!”

Although Gibson is close with Pippen, one of his earliest friends from the NBA was Kobe Bryant. Earlier this year, he was even spotted at a Lakers game in Atlanta. Gibson could be a fan of the Lakers, as it is already known that he was friends with Kobe Bryant.

Gibson has always been close to the basketball world

Although most people know him for his acting career, Tyrese Gibson used to be an R&B singer in the past. He had his come-up in the 1990s. During that time, Brandy Norwood was one of the rising stars in the R&B world. Both Tyrese and Brandy had known each other for years and were good friends.

While talking to Kobe, Gibson was fascinated by how Kobe approaches a game and his mentality. That was Gibson’s first welcome to the basketball world, and since then, we have spotted Gibson at various basketball games, especially the Lakers.
