NBA star Yao Ming will lend his voice to the hit animated television show "The Simpsons" in an episode together with two other sports celebrities LeBron James and Michelle Kwan.
Yao Ming will hire the show's hero Homer Simpson to teach him victory dances.
Homer then organizes the Super Bowl halftime show, reminding the audience of a national scandal when Janet Jackson's breast was bared on live broadcast that sparked a crackdown on what officials termed "indecency."
The episode is to be broadcast after American football's Super Bowl Championship next February and will poke fun at America's obsession with broadcast indecency.
