American basketball great LeBron James has compared his bald patch on the back of his head to a spoilt cup cake.

He recently Instagrammed this picture (left) for his 70.9 million followers comparing his disappearing hair and Resse's peanut butter cup cake and wrote: "One of the funniest ones I've seen. Hated when my Reese cup would do that but guess what I still kept it and ate is."
