Maria Menounos has claimed that Jack Nicholson had her ousted from her seat during a final match between the Celtics and the Lakers.
Nicholson is so serious about the Lakers, that the 76-year-old actor once had 'Extra' host and Boston Celtics loyalist Menounos ousted during a game at L.A.'s Staples Center, the New York Daily News reported.
During Game 6 of the Lakers vs. Celtics NBA Finals in 2010, Menounas was sitting courtside with comedian Dane Cook when she got a rude surprise from security.
The 35-year-old host said on 'Conan' Monday night that all of a sudden she got booted. Some guys come and pull them out, and she didn't have a clue.
The culprit was none other than tricky Nicholson.
Menounos only realized the prank when she ran into the actor coming out of the bathroom in the Chairman's Lounge.
He had called [late Lakers owner] Jerry Buss and had her removed.
