“Come save me” - Funny Marco continues to woo Carmelo Anthony’s ex La La Anthony by commenting on her Deadpool Halloween outfit
Funny Marco's attempts to woo Carmelo Anthony's ex-wife, La La Anthony, continued on Thursday after the actor revealed her Deadpool outfit for Halloween. Marco's hilarious flirty comments started after he tried to shoot his shot at Carmelo's ex during a one-on-one interview on his channel "Open Thoughts."
That was followed by La La asking her $14.9 million followers on Instagram once if she should date Marco, to which 77% of respondents replied positively. La La even took him to the red carpet event at the premiere of "Black Mafia" season three as her date, where she jokingly hinted at the possibility of dating the YouTuber.
Funny Marco seemed to use his charm again after his latest comment on La La's Halloween post, saying:
"Come save me"
Before this, Funny Marco tried to draw La La Anthony's attention after he tagged her and commented on rapper GloRilla's pregnancy post on Oct. 24.
"See," Marco wrote.
La La didn't reply to his comment here, but 179 users reacted to it. Majority of them tried convincing her to give Marco a chance.
Marco also released a YouTube video expressing his joy about his first date with his "crush" La La.
La La Anthony hilariously turned down Funny Marco
Funny Marco's flirty attempts haven't helped his case with La La Anthony since day one. The former MTV VJ hilariously turned him down during the "Open Thoughts" sit-down that sparked their exchanges.
"Tell me who is single and available and you would say is like a great guy?" La La asked.
"Marco," the comedian replied.
"Anybody else? I mean, you can't be the guy for everybody," La La said.
La La has been single since separating from Carmelo in 2016-17, who she was with since 2003. They got engaged in December 2004 and married in July 2010. La La and the former Knicks superstar finalized their divorce in 2021.
She lives with their son, Kiyan, and is seemingly focused on his basketball and her own acting career. Kiyan is a high school senior and one of the 2025 class' top recruits.
