For most of us, a day at the office is never accompanied by media interviews and roaring crowds. For Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, though, this is just a routine part of his job. In the spring of 2008, with the Lakers set to face off against the San Antonio Spurs in a late-season game with major playoff implications, legendary filmmaker and conspicuous sports fan Spike Lee took the opportunity to show what it’s like for a top athlete like Kobe to go to work. With unprecedented access, Lee follows him from his arrival at the Staples Center through team meetings and pregame warm-ups, during the game itself, and at the end of his day as he, his wife, and his kids get in the car to drive home.

Check out the clip above of your royal highness Prince who talks to Tavis Smiley today about being picked on while growing up and how he used music as a way to deal with it. The show in it's entirety will air today and tomorrow on PBS. Be sure to check local listings for the times.

I can't help but wonder if we'll ever get any more thought provoking black movies like this. I mean Madea can be funny but sometimes you might want to actually think about the film after the fact...and that's all I gotta say about that.
