Party rock is in Sharm El-Sheikh tonight! LMFAO rapper Redfoo made an unexpected appearance at the lowest rungs of professional tennis this week: not as a spectator, but as a competitor.
The 49-year-old musician competed under his legal name, Stefan Gordy, as a main-draw wild card to one of the ubiquitous M15 events in the Egyptian city. He lost in the first round to a lucky loser from Norway, Leyton Rivera, in just 43 minutes. (A week prior, as a lower-key a wild card in the qualifying draw, he lost 6-0, 6-0.)
But the routing didn’t dampen his spirit, as he wished Rivera the best in a post-match follow-up.
Prior to the match, the performer also excitedly wrote, “Going for it! #yala 🎾,” in an Instagram post.
