Brooklyn Decker may be happily married to Andy Roddick but, according to the model, it's probably best for the two to keep their professional lives separate.
"He tried to give me a lesson once, and I ended up hitting all the tennis balls over the fence and smashing my racket because I was so frustrated," Decker, 24, tells Women's Health in its May issue.
"I told him, 'You don't teach me how to play tennis and I won't teach you how to model in a bathing suit.' "
"And," she continues, "so far it's worked."

Brooklyn Decker: Marrying Young Runs in the Family
Originally posted 09/13/2010 09:30AM
By modern standards, Brooklyn Decker was on the young side when she walked down the aisle with Andy Roddick last year at age 22. But for both the bride and groom's families, there was nothing unusual about it.
"It wasn't weird for me," Decker tells the latest issue of Page Six Magazine. "My mom got married when she was 19, and my husband's parents got married young – in their 20s. And both sets of parents are still together. We're so lucky. We had that influence around us, and basically, it came down to the fact that neither of us had to get married."

Miami Heat: Which Stars Will Clamor for Courtside Seats?
Originally posted 07/09/2010 04:00PM
With basketball big shots Lebron James, Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh teaming up in Miami, fans can expect the games to pack a lot of heat. But it's not just the players that are bringing the sizzle.
Like the Los Angeles Lakers games on the West coast, Miami Heat games are star-studded events, known to bring out celebs like Kim Kardashian, Celine Dion and Beyoncé Knowles to courtside seats.
Plan on attending a Heat game? You may be sitting on the sidelines with J.Lo and Marc Anthony, who own a waterfront condo in Miami. Floridian Jimmy Buffett never misses a game – or a move – and he often gets floor seats, which makes him just as fanatical as Jack Nicholson at a Lakers game.
