Keep your eyes on the game, Antonio! Banderas joins in with the Laker Girls as he takes his daughter Stella to the basketball

Pre-match entertainment: Antonio Banderas casts an admiring glance at a cheerleader as he and his daughter Stella - who tried to look nonchalant - attended an LA Lakers game


Any red-blooded male attending an LA Lakers match can't help but check out the team's world-famous cheerleading squad.

But while most cast an admiring glance or two in their direction while trying not to make it too obvious, the same couldn't be said of Antonio Banderas.

Because the actor not only kept his eye on the Laker Girls but even joined in a few of their moves.


He must have forgotten for a split second that his 14-year-old daughter Stella was by his side.

She looked unimpressed with her father's eagerness to show off his hand moves as they got comfortable in their court side seats.

Open your arms out: Antonio starts to copy the cheerleader's arm movements...

... and gets into the swing of it by clapping his hands along with her


Antonio, 50, clapped his hands along with one of the blonde cheerleaders during the half-time interval in the game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

And he really took the dance seriously as he was snapped clapping along with the blonde dancer, as Stella tried to pay no attention.

... as he proved as he showed his frustration at one of the players


But the game soon resumed and his attention was quickly snapped away from the dancers, who left the court to make way for the players at the Staples Centre.

And as he tucked into pizza and chicken wings with Stella, Banderas also got very animated at the game, as he roared, cheered and sometimes showed frustration at the players.

However, Stella looked as though she would rather be somewhere else as she looked bored at times and seemed more interested in texting on her phone.

It was also a family day out for comedy actor Will Ferrell, who brought his seven-year-old son Magnus along with him.

And he played the doting dad, keeping his arm around his eldest son and kept checking he was ok as they watched the match.

And Bruce Willis was also in the crowd with his wife Emma Heming.
