Eyes front: Jack Black checks out the cheerleader at yesterday's Los Angeles Lakers game at the Staples centre

He may have been there to watch the basketball, but Jack Black looked like he was finding it difficult to keep his eye on the game last night.

The 41-year-old actor was clearly enjoying himself as he checked out the cheerleading talent at the Lakers game in Los Angeles.

Wearing a bright yellow Lakers T-shirt, jeans and a pair of sunglasses, Jack looked more than happy at the view from his court-side seat next to film producer Jeffrey Katzenberg,.

The star, who recently starred in Gulliver's Travels, enjoyed a joke with friends as he watched the action.

However, the cheerleader's efforts seemed to be in vain as The Lakers sunk to a 109-100 defeat to the New Orleans Hornets in the first game of the NBA playoffs at the Staples Centre.

It appeared to be very much a boys night out for the star, who had left his wife Tanya and children Samuel, four, and two-year-old Thomas at home.

The actor last appeared in a film version of Gulliver's Travels, and will soon again be providing the voice of Po in animated sequel Kung Fu Panda 2.

'This movie kicks so much butt that's there's going to be a national butt shortage when this movie is unleashed on theatres,' Jack has said about the film.

Kung Fu Panda 2, which also features the voice talent of Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman and Seth Rogen, will be released in the U.S. in May.
