The Kentucky Derby — the annual see-and-be-seen event where revelers wear silly hats, watch horses run around a track, and drink mint juleps (I'm guessing) — went down this weekend. Although I'll never quite understand the draw, Gabrielle Union seems to like it. Also there: Dwyane Wade. Not there (if we're going by photographical evidence): Star Jones. A morning when I don't wake up to DWade and Star Jones relationship rumors is a good morning.

EVEN IF IT IS PLATONIC, WHY THE HELL ARE STAR JONES AND DWYANE WADE SUCH GOOD FRIENDS? "'Star is an unbelievable woman. We have a great, great relationship. As friends,' Wade said Thursday of the state-of-play between him and the former View co-host. 'We're friends, just like a lot of celebrities,' he insisted during his guest spot alongside Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith on the light-hearted TNT show Inside the NBA."

In the past, Stereohyped has been slightly slackerish in its sports coverage. Perhaps this signed Dwyane Wade basketball makes up for it…a little? If you bid on it, as part of the Bid 2 Beat Aids auction, and win, I promise he won't conduct a sting operation to steal it from you at gunpoint. Scout's honor!

Whether you like Dwyane Wade or just like giving to AIDS charities, you can bid here to make this basketball your very own.

All proceeds from the Bid 2 Beat AIDS auction go toward LIFEbeat, the music industry’s charitable organization dedicated to reaching Americas youth with the message of HIV/AIDS prevention. There’s lots more on the Bid 2 Beat AIDS eBay page, so peruse at your leisure. The auctions end Monday.

Stereohyped has teamed up with the non-profit LIFEbeat and the Bid 2 Beat AIDS charity auction to raise awareness and provide support to the AIDS community. All funds generated go directly to LIFEbeat.

Terrence "T.P." Howard will never learn. Gabby Union? She's just not that into him. And considering the rumors about how many guys she actually is into, T.P. should probably take that as a major insult.

Spywitnesses at Spotlight Live in Times Square Tuesday say the actor tried to turn up the heat with Gabrielle Union, but she wouldn't simmer. Maybe that's because she's already with the Miami Heat's Dwyane Wade, not to mention past liaisons with Derek Jeter and Howard's "Crash" co-star Ludacris. She rocked as Diddy took the stage at the industry's weekly karaoke confab in the high-tech club.

On second thought, T.P. probably likes women who don't like him, just because they won't try to have sex with him and break his celibacy vow. I just figured it all out!

Being one of the country's most famous professional athletes, living in Miami, gracing the "50 Most Beautiful People" list, and getting married when you're still a child are not factors that, when combined, are known for contributing to a faithful marriage.

Ask Dwyane and Siovaughn Wade, who have supposedly called it quits.

We definitely probably know why. Here's hoping D.Wade doesn't try to blame the divorce on some cryptic financial fraud on his wife's part like his teammate did. We won't believe him, anyway.

Men's fashion at an award show such as this is harder to judge, because many of the attendees arrive in the same clothes they would wear to the grocery store, the club, or the annual pimp convention — none of which are good looks. Don Cheadle, who won the humanitarian award for his work in Darfur, looks pretty dapper (and he gave a great acceptance speech). I can't say the same for all of the guys in attendance. See for yourself after the jump.

Dwyane Wade's Florida home is so personalized (some might say ridiculous) that he will probably have a hard time selling it for the $8.9 million asking price. Maybe he should have painted over all the murals of his face before he decided to put it on the market. More pictures of the 12,000 square foot mansion, which defines the phrase "new money," after the jump.

The vast majority of the pictures from the Tao Beach Grand Opening festivities in Vegas over the weekend are pretty ridiculous, and the one above says it all. It screams we're-rich-and-powerful-and-drunk-and-our-girlfriends-aren't-here, doesn't it? I couldn't justify giving the photo of the two of them holding stacks of cash (I'm serious) the place of prominence in the post, but check it and others from the weekend out after the jump.
