Jack Nicholson seen in public for the first time in a year

Triple Oscar winner Jack Nicholson, 84, has decided to end rumors of his difficult health condition by coming to his favorite place.

The legendary actor arrived in a private car at the Staples Center in Los Angeles for a basketball game of his favorite team, the Los Angeles Lakers. Before entering the huge sports hall, Jack was surrounded by fans to whom he gladly shared autographs.

Nicholson appeared in public for the first time since January 2020 when he was at a basketball game with his son, actor Ray Nicholson (29), and rapper Tory Lanez. In recent months, the American media have claimed that the actor suffers from dementia, which is why he does not leave his villa in Beverly Hills.

"Jack and I have been friends for years and he doesn't leave his house anymore ... I think his son and daughter take care of him. He is physically well, but his mind is gone. It is really sad that such a talented actor goes this way," said a source close to the actor. 

The Oscar winner played his last role in the 2010 romantic comedy "How Do You Know" with Reese Witherspoon and Owen Wilson. Nicholson has appeared in more than 70 films throughout his career and has been nominated for an Oscar 12 times. He has been married once and has five children with four different women and Ray, who is pursuing an acting career, is the youngest.
