Kirilenko's Wife Encourages Him to Wander: Once a Year

(Utah) Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko's extracurricular sex life, or lack thereof, has become a subject of national amusement.

Kirilenko's wife, Masha Lopatova, once a pop star in the couple's native Russia, is quoted in the current issue of ESPN The Magazine as saying she allows her husband to have sex with another woman one night a year. "When this article comes out, girls will be lining up outside his hotel door," she told the magazine. "When I'm aware and I let him do it, it's not cheating." Kirilenko's response: "I'm not planning to do anything. But she said if you want to do it, you can do it."

The story became a hot topic on American sports-talk radio and cable television earlier this week, including ESPN's popular "Pardon The Interruption." Said co-host Michael Wilbon, a Washington Post columnist, "Ain't Mrs. Kirilenko the coolest wife in the world or what?" Quipped co-host Tony Kornheiser, also a Post columnist: "She is a top-five wife, all-time."

One other interesting revelation from the magazine story shed light on how Kirilenko likes to spend some of his offseason time away from conservative Utah: "I have seven months when I can be patient," he said, "and five months when I can go to nightclubs and nobody will say anything to me."

The wife of Andrei Kirilenko raised eyebrows by revealing that she allows the Utah forward to have one affair each season. The news became public after the Jazz star tried to sign Maria Sharapova to a 10-day contract.

LOL............. this wife is one unusual girl, but you must wonder what she'll be doing when he's off spreading his oats.

"couple's native Russia"

On America's Most Wanted there was this Russian woman profiled... she was a mail order bride. A guy smuggled her into the Port of Miami on a small speed boat, most likely from Cuba. Anyhow, her mug shot was on AMW because she killed the guy that ordered her via mail to be his bride.

: )

Some would say, "Godless Commies".

My husband may be seeking a new agent, as his current contract has an "absolutely no free agency" clause.

How old need it be to not be "news"?

;-)

It's a pretty interesting news story that brings to the front conservative issues (marriage and faithfulness - note the key word), pro athletes, societal moores, etc. It also seems to be news in Utah.

;-)

Somehow I think that is exactly what she has in mind.

Yes, it is cheating, though she seems to want to appear 'oh so sophisticated', and pretend it isn't.

By the way, have you ever seen the lovely Catherine Zeta Jones play golf? She really is good ......... great form and hits it straight and pretty long. I think she's about a 15 handicap....... not bad.

But her swing is nearly perfect ...... come to think about it, everything about her is beautiful.

The lady was quite sarcastic. That's the kind of answer you give when you are tired of the question.
