Chapter 511 - The Grammy Awards 1 (1/2)

Jake woke up rested the other day in the morning, this was going to be a lively day for him and he was too excited to go to the Grammys at night, Jake called his mom to talk to her about the latest games and also to talk about the Grammys.

Eva was very fond of music but did not understand very well about the awards they had, Jake had given all the CDs he had of Kate and Eva had also watched Kate sing in the game that Jake organized.

After that Eva also really liked the way Kate sang, Jake had already told his mother that Kate was going to run for this year's Grammy and with Jake reminding her, Eva said she would watch Kate's show.

”I think it's cool that you go to the Grammy this year to cheer for your girlfriend, being there with her can support her a lot on that day that she must be nervous.”

”Yes, I think so too, mom, but I won't be able to be with her, yet she knows that I'm going to be rooting for her.”

”Why can't you be with her, Jake? Aren't you going to Grammy with Kate?”

”No, I'm going alone with a ticket I got from a friend, Kate's manager thinks that revealing our relationship can hurt her career, which is undergoing a change right now.”

”At the beginning of next year we will reveal about our dating to everyone and say that we have been dating since the end of 1998, so the media will not be able to say that it is not a serious relationship.”

”I don't know how to reveal that Kate is dating a successful man like you can hurt her career, you two are famous and make a beautiful couple.”

”I don't care about that, mom, the important thing is that Kate and I are dating, I don't need everyone to know about it, her manager knows what she does.”

”If you don't mind I'm not going to say anything, I'm glad you are well together.”

When Jake called his mom the topic was often Kate and it wasn't Jake's games, Eva just needed to know that Jake was happy and that his team was winning to be happy about it.

Jake tried to talk to Kate after talking to his mother, but Lily had taken her phone so Kate wouldn't be too anxious on the day of the awards, Jake had the whole day to rest because Coach Harris had dismissed him.

During the afternoon, his housekeeper brought Jake the newspaper that had important news about the Los Angeles Lakers team, the news that he already knew that Robert Horry was almost recovered and could already play in the next game and the news that the Los team Angeles Lakers had hired Dennis Rodman.

Jake already hoped that these two things would happen and he also knew that Dennis Rodman would also be at the Grammys that night along with his wife Carmen Electra, if Rodman wanted to talk to him Jake would talk to him, but he wanted to remain discreet so as not to have rumors about him and Kate.

The other news was something Jake expected, but he didn't want it to happen, it was the news that Coach Del Harris had been fired, Jake hoped it didn't happen because the Los Angeles Lakers team managers had said in his past life that reason for the dismissal of Coach Harris had been the bad start to the season with 6 wins and 6 losses in 12 games.

This time the Los Angeles Lakers team had won 11 games and lost only 1 of the games, even if he had been fired it was because the Los Angeles Lakers team should have already started talking to coach Phil Jackson so he could be the coach of the team since the beginning of next season.

For that, the team directors were willing to abandon the Los Angeles Lakers' chances of winning the NBA title this season, interim coach Bill Bertka would take over the team in the next game, but Jake knew it would be for just one game and then coach Kurt Rambis would lead the team until the end of the season.

Of course, Jake still intended to help the team try to win the NBA title this season, but without coach Del Harris it would be more difficult, it would depend much more on the players than on the team's strategy.

After hearing this news about his team Jake went to a hairdresser that one of his Hollywood friends had indicated, Jake had also ordered a suit, pants, and a set of social clothes so he could go to the Grammy Awards.

The hairdresser made only a few adjustments to his hair, the suit and set of clothes to go to the Grammy was from the Armani brand, to the hairdresser and to the Armani store Jake said who he was so he could get the best treatment.
