Tiki Barber, Traci Lynn Johnson Go Public, Clarify "Skewed" Affair Rumors

Former NFL star Tiki Barber and Traci Lynn Johnson, now his official girlfriend, sat down with Entertainment Tonight to refute rumors about their affair. Rumors, they say, which are skewed by perception. Or something. Tiki is accused of leaving pregnant wife Ginny for the 23-year-old Johnson after 11 years together. But the former Today personality says it’s not true. “It’s hard, because everything is so skewed by the coverage, and by the perception,” the longtime New York Giants running back said on ET . For her part, Traci Lynn Johnson added, “I just feel that now is the time to just make sure the rumors that were said are revealed as false.” Traci Lynn Johnson and Tiki Barber say they did nothing wrong. Tiki and Traci say that despite claims that they dated for two years before being busted, they were only friends during his marriage. He says: “We were only friends when I was still married. I was separated, out of my house so it wasn’t until then that we took things to the next level.” Traci adds: “Tiki and I were romantically involved when he was separated, plenty of people who are separated have boyfriends and girlfriends.” Tiki hopes for a normal life for his four kids: “My goal is to not have the kids suffer because of the failings of mine and my soon to be ex-wife.” “I’m just a normal guy who had a job that people cared about, and maybe there is a standard to live up to that but it’s a hard one, for anyone.” He didn’t live up to Ginny Barber’s standards, that’s for sure.

Eric Johnson Drops Out of Business School to Date Jessica Simpson Full-Time

Jessica Simpson and new boyfriend Eric Johnson are spending plenty of time together, as evidenced by their Twitter kiss and all that good stuff. How serious are they getting? More than you might think. People says that Johnson has ditched plans to attend business school in Pennsylvania. Is that so the former NFL player can devote more time to dating Jess? Is he just using her, as some sources have suggested in the past month? A friend of his says no … but confirms he did put off grad school. Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson. [Photo: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com] Eric Johnson had planned to attend the prestigious Wharton Business School’s MBA program this month, but “decided against it,” says the friend. “There were a lot of factors that went into his decision.” We can think of two big ones. “Jessica supports whatever he wants to do. He has a lot going on .” She won raves for her Entourage cameo, is reportedly in the running to become an American Idol judge , and has a new VH1 project in the works. “She is in pre-production for a new show,” a TV insider says without elaborating. “It will be the next step to her VH1 series, The Price of Beauty .” No word if the show will be called The Price of Hotness .

2010 ESPY Awards Honor Kobe, Landon And Lindsey, Spoof LeBron

Host Seth Myers and others skewer sports oddities from James’ special to Paul the octopus. By Kyle Anderson Landon Donovan at the ESPY Awards Photo: Kevin Winter/ Getty Images The worlds of sports, movies, music and television came together under one roof on Wednesday, the quietest sports day of the year, for ESPN’s annual ESPY Awards. Dozens of stars — including Los Angeles Lakers great Kobe Bryant, American World Cup hero Landon Donovan, New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees and Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn — gathered at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles for a night of sports highlights and wacky comedy, orchestrated by host Seth Myers. Bryant, Donovan, Brees and Vonn each won some of the night’s biggest awards. Kobe, fresh off the Lakers’ latest championship and his second Finals MVP, scored the prize for Best NBA Player. Donovan won two trophies, one each for Best MLS Player and Best Moment in Sports (his game-winning goal against Algeria in the World Cup beat out the New Orleans’ Saints Super Bowl victory, Phil Mickelson’s win at the 2009 Masters and Canadian figure skater Joannie Rochette’s performance at the Winter Olympics). Brees was voted Best Male Athlete, Best NFL Player and Best Championship Performance, while Vonn took home the prizes for Best Female Athlete and Best Female Olympian. Much of the humor during the evening — provided by the likes of Will Ferrell, Jon Hamm, Andy Samberg, Tracy Morgan, Zac Efron, Mark Wahlberg and Luke Wilson — was directed at LeBron James (who was also in attendance) and his recent one-hour special, “The Decision,” which ESPN aired last week. “Did it really need to be an hour?” Myers asked. “Somebody time me: ‘Miami.’ How long did that take? A second!” The 2010 FIFA World Cup was also the source of much humor. Ferrell came out for some vuvuzela-related jokes and Samberg appeared on the show as Paul, the German octopus who correctly predicted the winners of a handful of matches. But the highlight of the night was the surprise award given to President Barack Obama. His presence in the building was kept a secret, but he received a standing ovation when he approached the stage to accept his Lifetime Achievement ESPY, given for his “contributions and commitment to American sport.” What was your favorite moment from the 2010 ESPY Awards?
