Starving for food, starving for attention … what difference does it make? Former NBA badboy Dennis “The Worm” Rodman, along with a few Harlem Globetrotters, is in the prison country for a film project and a little “basketball diplomacy.” And he’s pretty darn excited to be there:
It's true, I'm in North Korea. Looking forward to sitting down with Kim Jung Un. I love the people of North Korea. #WORMinNorthKorea

They love basketball here. Honored to represent The United States of America. #WORMinNorthKorea

Maybe I'll run into the Gangnam Style dude while I'm here @psy_oppa #WORMinNorthKorea

PSY is actually South Korean. Then again, Rodman’s geography skills put him on par with Secretary of State John Kerry, so maybe he has a future in diplomacy after all.
I'm not a politician. Kim Jung Un & North Korean people are basketball fans. I love everyone. Period. End of story. #WORMinNorthKorea

Awww! So, does this officially put Rodman in the running for a Nobel Peace Prize?
Dennis Rodman is visiting North Korea. What could possibly go wrong?

Dennis Rodman and some Harlem Globetrotters are going to North Korea to discuss their nuclear activity and basketball. So America is safe.

Woke up to this headline: "Dennis Rodman in North Korea for diplomacy." Immediately went into prayer.

You know what other stories are true, Dennis? The ones about the horrors faced by the North Korean people:

Rodman really is a worm.
Update:
PSY sets Rodman straight on where “the Gangnam Style dude” is from:
@dennisrodman I'm from #SOUTH man!!! kk
