To see, and be seen

Mr. and Mrs. Beckham weren't the only star power couple at Staples Center on an otherwise uneventful Thursday night, watching the Lakers clinch the Western Conference title. More of 'em will be jocking for seat space when the NBA Finals begin next week. While trying to avoid being shown on the "Kiss Cam," but available to be had by Associated Press photog Mark J. Terrill and Kevork Djansezian, here's a mini photo gallery of those with some name value who somehow attracted attention:

Antonio Banderas, giving Cameron Diaz a courtside face massage, while Dreamwork's Jeffrey Katzenberg tries not to get arroused...

Baron Davis has some funny lines for Adam Sander to use in his next flick ...

Patrick Swayze, seemingly happy to be out for the night ...

Lionel Richie, who could have stayed all night long ...

P. Diddy, doing his best M.L. Carr ...

Sly Stallone, looking as fit as a Botoxed fiddle ...

Denzel Washington, read to umpire a men's softball league game later ...

Phil Jackson, who sometimes coaches the Lakers ...

And poor Eva Longoria, trying to get Tony Parker's attention to tell him she's got a ride home for the night... with Dyan Cannon, Tobey Maguire and Jack Nicholson, who somehow weren't photographed. Again.
