Persistence has paid off for Andy Roddick – especially where love is concerned.
The tennis star's fiancée, Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Brooklyn Decker, describes the athlete's early attention toward her as unrelenting and unrequited. "I was stalked," Decker joked on Monday at the American Ballet Theatre Spring Gala in New York. "He'll tell you that."
But she added, "It was charming. He was charming. Eventually, I fell for it, and five months later I called him back and that was that."

Andy Roddick's fiancée, Brooklyn Decker, is no stranger to showing off her bikini bod. And the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model is definitely looking healthy as this month's cover girl for Fitness Magazine.
Decker, 20, posed for the sexy photos on the beaches of Turks & Caicos last year, long before she was the future Mrs. Roddick. The tennis superstar popped the question on March 25, PEOPLE confirmed shortly after the event.
"With their hectic travel schedules, Andy and Brooklyn plan to enjoy their engagement and will wait to set a wedding date," said Roddick's statement on his Web site after the news broke out.

Lindsay Lohan Buys a Round
Originally posted 04/25/2005 06:00AM
She's only 18, but Lindsay Lohan knows how to play the polite celebrity game. While dining at trendy TriBeCa restaurant Megu in New York City recently, the newly blonde actress spotted the unlikely pair of Robin Williams and Walter Cronkite at another table and sent over drinks. After her generous act, she then headed with model May Anderson and friends to club Level V, where they danced next to Michael Jordan. But that wasn't their last stop for the evening: The group then hit yet another club, Marquee, at 1:30 a.m., where they stayed until 3:15. When they finally decided to hit the road, a team of bodyguards cleared a path to the exit for Lohan and her posse.

Who's Maggie's Younger Man?
Originally posted 09/09/2004 06:00AM
The heist flick Criminal (opening Sept. 10) is anything but a romance, but the stylish thriller starring John C. Reilly (Chicago, Boogie Nights) does have at least one tender moment: a kiss between Maggie Gyllenhaal, 26, and Mexican heartthrob Diego Luna (Y Tu Mama Tambien), 24. But before you get all excited about a new on-set romance, the stars say the smooch was not the steamiest. "Kissing him was just sweet," says Gyllenhaal. "Diego seems like he could be a friend of my brother's (actor Jake, 23). He's a little younger than me. He's like a cutie pie! It actually wasn't, like, that hot thing. It was sweet and lovely." As for his experience with Gyllenhaal, Luna says: "I have to say with Maggie, the greatest thing is that there's always a lot happening in her eyes. You can see a lot of what she's feeling. She has very expressive eyes. You see everything through her."

What's Cooking with Andy Roddick?
Originally posted 09/02/2004 06:00AM
Tennis star Andy Roddick is a busy man lately, between his current battle at the U.S. Open and his recent efforts at the Olympics (he didn't bring home a medal) – and did he even have time to celebrate his 22nd birthday on Monday? But in spite of it all, Roddick took a few minutes to chat with us at the recent Taste of Tennis charity event at the W New York Hotel, where he played doubles in the kitchen, making gumbo with celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse. Tell us about the Olympics. Which other athletes did you hang out with? "It was awesome. I didn't play as well as I would have liked, but the whole experience just meeting all the other athletes – I stayed in the village with Mardy Fish, who got the silver medal. It was like a college dorm, with people that can run the 100-meter in under 10 seconds. It was pretty cool." Were you recognized much over there? "Yeah, tennis is one of the sports that's visible year-round as opposed to just at the Olympics, so I was probably more recognizable than some of the athletes. But they didn't trip – they're my peers, so it really wasn't that big of a deal." Did you learn any Greek? " 'Efharisto poly' is thank you."

Daily Insider for March 26, 2004
Originally posted 03/25/2004 10:09AM
March 26, 2004ANDY PLAYS SINGLES Andy Roddick played singles at a party sponsored by SFX Sports Group recently, arriving in a limo at South Beach hot spot Prive with a group of mostly guys. The tennis star, dressed in jeans, seemed frazzled by the cameras and reporters, and was followed by an in-house security guard all night. Roddick spent most of the evening in a VIP area (where complimentary bottles of Ciroc Vodka were in abundance), leaving only a few times to talk to friends. He left the VIP area once with an unidentified blonde to visit the restrooms, and the gentlemanly Roddick waited for her to come out to walk back with her. As for the news of a reported breakup with his girlfriend of a year and a half, Mandy Moore, Roddick said simply: "I'm just trying to have a good time. I haven't been here in three months and I'm just hanging out with my friends."
