Anderson Silva continues to be MMA’s busiest one-man marketing machine.”The Spider” appears in the latest commercial by Ford Brazil (above) and he puts on a pretty entertaining performance.
In recent months, the UFC middleweight champion has signed deals with the Brazilian branches of Burger King and Nike as well as a landmark sponsorship agreement with the Corinthians pro soccer team. He also appeared onstage with Justin Bieber at a concert last month in Brazil and performed a choreographed dance routine to one of the teen pop star’s hits on Brazilian TV.

Mariah Yeater [pictured above] gave her first televised interview (which airs tonight) to tabloid talk show, The Insider. Yeater stands by her allegations that Justin Bieber had sex with her in a public bathroom following his performance at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, then after skirting around giving her his phone number, Bieber told her to just tell him her number; he would memorize it. Needless to say, she never received a call or even a late night “what’s up?” text.
Carlos Condit vs. Josh Koscheck is set for UFC 143.
Just like with everything else in life, celebrities seem to all be copping a move right out of Justin Bieber’s playbook when it comes to cross-promotion by publicly calling for a piece of UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva’s time.
“Wat up, though? This is big Snoop Dogg. Anderson Silva, man, come hang out with yo’ boy Snoop Dogg, man. You just won a new championship belt,” Snoop explained. “Come bring it to the show so I can show you mine and we can mix and match and put some of that….in the air.”

When Anderson Silva appeared onstage during a recent Justin Bieber concert in Rio de Janeiro, we all just chalked it up to “The Spider” being an expert at creating cross-promotional opportunities, but we’re seriously starting to have our doubts about our theory.

When Anderson Silva appeared onstage during a recent Justin Bieber concert in Rio de Janeiro, we all just chalked it up to “The Spider” being an expert at creating cross-promotional opportunities, but we’re seriously starting to have our doubts about our theory.
It seems that the UFC middleweight champ is as infatuated with Bieber as he is with Steven Seagal. How else do you explain him learning an entire dance routine by the Canadian teen pop star and memorizing the lyrics to one of his terrible songs? If he isn’t a fan, the man deserves an Oscar for pretending that he is during a recent appearance on Brazilian television.
Maybe Chael was right about him speaking perfect English. Now who’s the one putting on an act? That’s some Jedi mind trick shit right there.

In on-going efforts to battle with the UFC promotion, the Culinary Union issued this letter to the promotion’s biggest sponsor, the Anheuser-Busch corporation. The letter pleas with Anheuser-Busch to drop their sponsorship with the UFC promotion and cites examples of fighters and UFC president, Dana White spouting anti-gay remarks:
In recent videos, UFC light heavyweight Quinton “Rampage” Jackson repeatedly urged Japanese fans to repeat an anti-gay slur.’ The fans, who do not appear to understand English, repeated the anti-gay slur at Jackson’s urging. In one video, Jackson instructed a Japanese man to say, “Goodbye, I want you to piss on my face.”
In an expletive-filled video rant posted on YouTube.com, UFC president Dana White used an anti-gay slur, saying, “Whoever gave you that quote is a [expletive] and a [expletive] faggot and a [expletive] liar and everything else. He also uttered the “F” word a total of 34 times, the “S” word 4 times, and referred to a female sports journalist as a “[expletive] dumb bitch.”
According to the Los Angeles Times, “Rampage” Jackson shouted “every conceivable gay slur” at a movie crew member of “The A-Team” who had called him a homophobic epithet. He was also quoted in the article saying, “Acting is kind of gay. It makes you soft.”
In a recent UFC promotional video, Michael Bisping, a UFC middleweight fighter and coach on the reality television show “The Ultimate Fighter,” screamed an anti-gay slur at his opponent. In a media conference call, Bisping tried to. smear an opposing-coach. on “The Ultimate Fighter” by saying that his opponent had a “gay chiropractor” on his staff.”
Joe Rogan, who does commentary for televised UFC events, recently used a homophobic slur while referring to a MMA blogger.’ Rogan also to referred to an MMA blogger as a part of the female anatomy. According to sportswriter Kevin Iole of Yahoo! Sports, Rogan then wrote on a blog, “Never did I imagine that so many people would get their panties in a bunch about the use of the word [expletive] to describe a female blogger.”
In August, UFC heavyweight Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira was quoted saying that he would not train with gay students. He was quoted in USA Today saying, “What if the gay person has that malice of having physical contact with me, of staying there grappling? I would have no problems having a gay student in my academy, but I would rather not train with him.”
We request that you stop advertising Bud Light during UFC events until the UFC’s owners make it evident to the public that it no longer tolerates homophobic behavior, and adopts and enforces a code of ethical conduct that ensures that participants in the UFC act in accordance with commonly accepted standards of decency.
And to offer pure legitimacy to the Culinary Union’s claim, openly gay celebrity gossip blogger, Perez Hilton added:
“Ugh! We are not happy to hear about this.”
But I don’t necessarily buy into these claims, ’cause last time I checked, both Dana White and Anderson Silva showed clear advocacy of their friendship with Justin Bieber who I’m pretty sure made her acting debut in this film.
