The Staples Center in Los Angeles has been receiving a lot of attention most recently for being the place where the NBA Finals were played. And while the city of Los Angeles is as known for being the home of stars as it is for angels, a great number of them, stars that is, turned out to watch game seven of the Championship series. Jack Nicholson is well known for being a Lakers fan and has been a common figure at their games for decades. Meanwhile, younger generations of stars have joined the crowd and it is common to see celebrities in the stands during the games. Of course in Los Angeles, it is common to see celebrities almost everywhere.

So, what goes on at Staples Center now that the games have ended and basketball will not resume until October? Does it just sit quietly until Artest, Gasol , Brown and others return for next season? Will all of these and the rest of the team return for next season? Well, that’s a question that can’t be answered here, though of course the Staples Center will not remain quiet and it is full of sporting and entertainment events all year long. And there is always something going on there to entice the guests in one of the 5 star hotels Los Angeles .
Currently the WNBA is in full swing and the Los Angeles Sparks play their home games in the Center.

Other events that will occur there this summer include the popular Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey Circus, which take place during a large part of July. Meanwhile Rihanna will also be performing there next month and has a concert scheduled for July 21. In August, Lady Gaga will be performing two concerts in-between Sparks home games and the second of her two shows was recently added. She is scheduled to perform at the Center on August 11 and 12. As the year progresses and we plan to head back into basketball season Shakira and Justin Bieber are on the concert lineup schedule.
