TORONTO -- Controversial Los Angeles Lakers forward Ron Artest is back in the headlines, only this time to star in his own reality series.
The bad boy NBA player is to develop and produce the "They Call Me Crazy" show with E1 Entertainment and Tijuana Entertainment.
The series will do ent the ups and downs of Artest's life, allowing him to "make amends for past transgressions," according to E1 Entertainment, and help develop aspiring musicians through his hip-hop label, Tru Warier, to be supported by E1 Music.
E1 is also looking to leverage its music division with a new studio album and reality show for hip-hop artist Faith Evans and a half-hour children's television series with KISS co-founders and frontmen Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley.
"I'm really excited to have the opportunity to invite people into my world to see the real me, and show them there are many more sides to the Ron Artest they see on the basketball court," Artest said in a statement.
Artest in 2004 gained notoriety when he attacked a fan in the stands during a Pacers–Pistons player brawl and has also stirred headlines for his off-court behavior.
"This show will allow me to share my experiences with others, and hopefully people can learn from the mistakes I've made," he added.
Artest and his Tru Warier Enterprises will share the executive producer credits with E1 Entertainment's John Morayniss and Tara Long, along with Tijuana's Troy Searer and John Foy.

Ron Artest Is Making a Reality Show
SportingNews
Now for the most "dog bites man" basketball news story of the day: Ron Artest will make a reality show about his life. It has no network as of yet, but that will come in a matter of time, I’m sure. The details, from The Hollywood Reporter:
The bad boy NBA player is to develop and produce the "They Call Me Crazy" show with E1 Entertainment and Tijuana Entertainment.
The series will do ent the ups and downs of Artest’s life, allowing him to "make amends for past transgressions," according to E1 Entertainment, and help develop aspiring musicians through his hip-hop label, Tru Warier, to be supported by E1 Music. […]
"I’m really excited to have the opportunity to invite people into my world to see the real me, and show them there are many more sides to the Ron Artest they see on the basketball court," Artest said in a statement.
Eat your heart out, Lamar Odom: there’s a new reality TV star on the Lakers, and Ron-Ron didn’t even have to marry into it. Finally, a mainstream audience can witness the antics that have captured the hearts and minds of NBA fans for years. I am both fearful for and jealous of the public that now gets to experience it for the first time.
So, what will the episodes cover. Here are a few ideas:
1. Making the Video: "Afghan Women"
2. Ron recalls crazy things he’s seen happen on Bronx basketball courts
3. Ron decides whether or not to go on talk shows in underwear or
4. Ron and Lamar set up Kim Kardashian and Luke Walton
5. Ron and his barber Boogie design new hairstyles, most of which involve lettering in Sanskrit and Aramaic
6. Ron tries to solve his dog droppings problem, which largely involves watching the notorious flop Envy and hiring an army of Cal Tech scientists
There you have it. It will only be a matter of time before Hollywood asks where they can deliver the truckload of Emmys.
E is the home of train wrecks, so it's a perfect place for his show.
Hopefully, he doesn't have a baby, go to the Bahamas and get offed by his lawyer ex-boyfriend, who makes it look like an OD, and then posthumously lose his will settlement from his late sugar-daddy husband.
