Girl, look at that body! We all know LFMAO party boy Redfoo works out, but who knew he was so talented on the tennis court?

The 37-year-old singer/rapper has just announced he's entered the 2013 U.S. Open National Playoffs.

Redfoo, a longtime aficionado of the sport--"it's always been a dream of mine to play professional tennis," he notes--will be playing singles and doubles with junior tennis player Ayaka Okuno. He’ll be participating in the USTA Northern California Sectional Qualifying Tournament in Salinas, Calif., June 18 through 23.

This isn't the first official tennis event Redfoo's been involved with. In addition to his amateur interest in the game, he played as a junior, has attended many Grand Slam events, and even sponsored a USTA Pro Circuit women’s event last September--titled “The Party Rock Open” after his Party Rock clothing line.

Another familiar but unexpected name that will be joining the Playoffs this year along with Redfoo: Heroes TV star Sendhil Ramamurthy.

Sounds like fun to us: Everybody just have a good time!

    By Todd Cunningham LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - "Iron Man 3" was soaring past $1 billion at the worldwide box office Thursday, in a display of world domination that would make one of Marvel's super villains proud. The box-office bounty - roughly $700 million from abroad and $300 million domestically - is a major triumph for Disney, which bet big on comic book superheroes when it bought Marvel Studios for $4 billion in 2009. And its decision to bring aboard a Chinese partner for "Iron Man 3" and focus the Disney marketing machine on the booming foreign market looks pretty good right now, too. ...
