Dead or Alive actress Holly Valance is trading in her sword (and vial of box office poison) for a pen and paper as journalist Brenda Snow in the recently announced Red Alert 3: Uprising. Valance will lend her live action camp to the upcoming expansion, which is earmarked for a digital-only release this March.
The Australian-born starlet describes her role in the game as "a camp, over-dramatised character," telling Eurogamer that "it was fun to go a little bit over the top." We're sure that's quite a change from DoA's Christie Allen. The four people who saw that movie tell us that she was the very picture of Hollywood grace.

In case you've been living in a ditch for a while, both Command and Conquer 3 and Red Alert 3 feature real-life actors/actresses playing the parts in cutscenes and voice-overs, including in-game mission updates. C&C3 featured the gorgeous Jennifer Morrison http://www.wallpaperbase.com/wallpapers/celebs/jennifermorrison/jennifer_morrison_2.jpg (from House) and Red Alert 3 had the awesome Tim Curry.

I've been playing the demo for Red Alert 3 and I'm tempted to buy the full game based mainly on the fact that it stars Tim Curry, George Takei, J.K. Simmons (J. Jonah Jameson) and, to a lesser extent, Jenny McCarthy.

What a great idea, it will be so much easier to wipe your ass with it that way.

Aussies always look great because they are always trying to get away from their wildlife. Exercise is the key.
