From yesterday's New York Times:

Kim Jong-un with the former N.B.A. star Dennis Rodman at a game in Pyongyang last week.
Two people I definitely would not have expected to see standing next to each other.

It does seem odd at first, but I'm not all that surprised to find out that Dennis Rodman has an ego to match that of a repressive dictator. If you think about it from that perspective, it makes perfect sense that they're such good friends.

Yeah, I think understanding this in terms of ego and self-indulgence makes sense.
