Tennis great Jimmy Connors to write memoir (Reuters)

NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) – A memoir by brash tennis player Jimmy Connors that promises to address his broken engagement to fellow tennis star Chris Evert as well as his rivalry with John McEnroe will be published in 2012, HarperCollins said on Monday.

The release of the autobiography by the man regarded as one of the greatest tennis players of all time will coincide with his 60th birthday and 30th anniversary of his last Wimbledon title, the publisher said.

"A lot has been written about me, my family, my on-court behavior and my off-court life," Connors said in a statement. "This book is going to change that. People may think they know Jimmy Connors. They don't, but they will after they have read my book."

Connors, 58, a former gritty left-hander with fiery on-court antics and a dominant two-handed backhand, won a record 109 titles including eight Grand Slams and was No. 1 in the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) rankings for 160 consecutive weeks from 1974-77 in a tennis career lasting more than two decades.

He also promised to address in the memoir his close but complicated relationship with his late mother Gloria, who was a teaching tennis pro who helped her son in the early years of his career.

Jimmy Buffett 'Doing Well' After Falling Off Stage at Sydney Show

Jimmy Buffett suffered a fall during a concert in Sydney, Australia, earlier today, after flashing lights temporarily impaired his vision during the show. Now TMZ reports that the musician is "doing well" and has been released from the hospital.

The 64-year-old 'Margaritaville' singer crashed into a gap at the edge of his stage, where he hit his head, suffering a massive cut.

The concert, during which the accident occurred, was tacked onto the singer's three sold-out shows in honor of Australia Day, which celebrates the first British fleet's arrival in Sydney in 1788.

According to an eyewitness, "It looked like he did a massive face plant after his encore and pretty much didn't get up."

Before the accident, the singer apologized for not performing on the Australian continent more often, insisting that he and his band would return in 2012.

Jimmy Fallon Starts Ice Cream Rivalry With Colbert

Only Jimmy Fallon could whip up a concoction that featured potato chips and ice cream. The late-night host debuted his new Ben & Jerry's flavor on Wednesday evening, revealing that his sweet and salty treat, called Late Night Snack, a rich vanilla bean ice cream with a salty caramel swirl and crunchy fudge covered potato chip clusters. And boy, is it delicious!

Following in the footsteps of other celebrity-brand flavors, Fallon has already started a faux rivalry with Stephen Colbert, who released Americone Dream back in 2007.

"I hope I never see that man's ice cream next to mine ... Americone Dream -- oh my gosh-- ice cream cones in ice cream, what a genius idea. He's Albert Einstein," Fallon joked to the press during the unveiling of his new flavor at 30 Rock. "Late Night Snack is an untouchable flavor."
The collaboration started inadvertently last summer when Fallon performed a musical tribute to Ben & Jerry's with his spoof vocal group, Ladysmith Snack Mambazo.



After that, Ben & Jerry's contacted the show and requested a meeting. "They set up ice cream in our conference room, started talking and asked if we wanted to do our own flavor," Fallon recalled. "We said, 'Are you kidding?! That's living the dream!'"

Aside from the tasty snack, Fallon has a bigger message he hopes to send to fans and consumers about Fair Trade products. Because Late Night Snack is made with Fair Trade vanilla and Fair Trade cocoa in the potato chip cluster fudge coating, NBC and Fallon have pledged their share of the proceeds to Fair Trade Universities to encourage the use of Fair Trade products on campuses around the country.

Fair Trade supports fair wages, a safe work environment, sustainability for the land, animal husbandry and community development for farming communities.Filed under: Celebrity Eats - Gut Reactions - TV News - Jimmy Fallon Tags: ben and jerrys, Jimmy Fallon, jimmy fallon ice cream, late night snack
