Following their NBA championship, the Celtics headed straight to Las Vegas to celebrate.  Since arriving, they showed up ringside to support C's fan Manny Pacquiano, who destroyed David Diaz in their lightweight championship bout.  More recently, they turned their magical influence to exotic dancing, helping Boston-area floozy Danielle Rueda-Watts win the Pole-a-Palooza at the Bellagio.

“The fact that the Celtics were in the house… contributed to her victory,” said our spy on the scene. “Because when they said, ‘Let’s hear it for Danielle from Boston,’ all the guys cheered and pumped their fists.”

Danielle, 26, reports she’s not a professional exotic dancer, although she does have a pole in her house. She studied aerial acrobatics in Canada and moved to Vegas for a role in Cirque de Soleil’s “Zumanity.”

Awww that's great.  We all need hobbies.  Like me.  I'm not a professional human taxidermist, although I do have some stuffed hookers under the floorboards.
