Apparently Paulina Gretzky has set her sights on making it in the entertainment industry.  What? Noooo! Not that type of entertainment industry. She wants to become a professional singer according to her interview in the February edition of Flare Magazine.

It’s amusing to note the magazine claims Gretzky is becoming more famous for her social media antics on Twitter and Instagram than being Wayne Gretzky’s daughter.  Sorry, but she’s becoming more famous on social media because she’s Wayne daughter.

The interview deals with a whole range of issues, including dating, the rumours about Wayne shutting down her Twitter account and finally growing up.

In Paulina’s defence, if the photo shoot with Flare Magazine is anything to go by, she does appear determined to be taken more seriously i.e. be photographed with more clothes on.  Which is the last thing hockey fans need to hear after Canada lost 5-1 to the United States in the semi-finals of the World Junior Hockey Championships.

It is tempting to tell Paulina not to give up her day job, but I guess we should at least listen to some of her music first of all.

We can only hope she has at least one more ‘relapse’ left in her.  But just in case, let’s hold a minutes silence for Paulina Gretzky’s ‘modelling career’.  Actually, sod that.  Let’s use this as an excuse to show some our favourite photos of ‘the Great One’s’ daughter:

Due to popular demand, we present a second edition of top pictures and stories of the week.  (Okay, I’m lying. I just wanted an excuse to share some more photos with you.)

1) Two games into the NBA pre-season, it appears that Raptors head coach Dwane Casey is already feeling the weight of heightened expectations:

Maybe someone should help lower Casey’s high blood pressure by advising him that no one is expecting too much from his team this year.

2) Hot off the press, Paulina Gretzky has been spending some time in Toronto this week:

This is only newsworthy due to the fact she was actually photographed with her clothes on for a change.  But what does this mean?  Is hell about to freeze over?  Maybe the Mayans’ are right after all…………………

3) A Pittsburgh Steelers fan was lucky enough to have his photo taken with the Blue Jays Jose Bautista before last Sunday’s home game versus the Philadelphia Eagles:

I guess after the season he suffered through, Bautista just wanted to be associated with a winning team for once.

(Hold on……………….aren’t the Steelers now 2-3 after last night’s shock defeat by the Tennessee Titans?  Never mind Jose.)

4) Sticking with the Blue Jays, watching the MLB playoffs during this week, (especially the continued success of the Baltimore Orioles) has only served to remind us of what could have been.

As such, let’s end their campaign on a high by signing off with a more aesthetically pleasing image of the Blue Jays 2012 season:

5) Due to the fact they play a regular season game every year at the Rogers Centre, the Buffalo Bills are the closest Toronto currently comes to having a team in the NFL.  In that respect, the Bills fit right in with the current sentiment Torontonians have about most of their professional teams:

6) The Maple Leafs are suffering more that most during the ongoing NHL lockout.  However, while I can understand their efforts to continue finding ways to make money, this is getting a little ridiculous now:

7) With the regular season nearly here, the Miami Heat are excited about defending their championship.  Trust Chris Bosh to ruin the moment.

I’m not sure what Bosh has trodden in, but Lebron James and Dwyane Wade appear to be telling him what he’s just done, while Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis examine the evidence.

(All I can say is they are better people than me. I wouldn’t have said anything.)

8 )  Finally, I’m not particularly into politics (something tells me this doesn’t surprise you) and I know this has absolutely nothing to do with sports.  However, with the US Presidential election fast approaching, I couldn’t resist sharing the following image with you:

If ever any photo fit the phrase ‘a picture speaks a thousand words’, this is it.
