RODMAN SAYS HE GETS ‘A LITTLE MORE SHINE OF A LIGHT’

Former NBA star Dennis Rodman seemed to cast himself as a man whose efforts to “bring peace between the two countries” was finally starting to pay off. “It almost didn’t happen ... I’m glad it did,” Rodman said Tuesday of the historic summit in Singapore. “It gave me a little more shine of a light as far as knowing the fact that I did something pretty, pretty historical as far as bringing awareness to North Korea and some of the issues that’s over there,” he said on Good Morning America. In a weepy interview with CNN’S Chris Cuomo before the summit, Rodman called Kim a “good friend” and said he doesn’t think about the politics involved. “I said to everybody, I said, ‘The door will open,’ ” he said. “When I said those things, when I went back home, I got so many death threats . . . I can’t even go home.”
