Semi-stars fight it out in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 charity event

by Justin McElroy on Feb 18th 2010 10:30AM

Imagine you told us that Dr. Chad Ocho Cinco (Hon.) and Olivia Munn intended to throw a Battlefield: Bad Company 2 party and invite all their pseudo-celebrity pals to play for charity. If you asked us to dream up a guest list, we doubt we would be physically capable of coming up with a more ill-suited and uninspiring crew than the one that will actually be in Hollywood tonight for the Battlefield Celebrity Bracket Challenge.

We understand Hal Sparks and Perez Hilton are there, that's just the law, but the rest of the NFL players and 90210 and CSI:NY stars that fill out the list so strain and pervert the word "celebrity" that it can now be accurately applied to karaoke DJs and birthday party illusionists. The sole exception here is Heroes star Greg Grunberg, who's a totally decent guy that just seems to have fallen in with the wrong crowd. Bad company indeed, Greg. Bad company indeed.

Oook...

Sarah Lane? Seriously?
http://www.daveslounge.com/graphics/Dave-and-Sarah-Lane.jpg

Olivia Munn is very schmexy, but also very annoying. Morgan FTW!

No-one said it yet.

OMG! BOOBS!

Now back to your regularly scheduled social awkwardness.

If you're into manly jaws then I guess Morgan would be for you. I find both of them annoying though but that might just be their on air personalities. *shrugs* Still manly jaws are your thing huh? lol

I say we have a Munn, Morgan and Chobot duel....to the death!

In a big tub of pudding of course.... :p

In order of attractiveness:
1. Munn
2. Chobot
3. Webb

In order of actual, erm, nerdiness:
1. Webb
2. Chobot
3. Munn

In conclusion... SCIENCE!

Sarah Lane was the best. G4 turned to shit after she(and a few others) left.

I would love to see one, just ONE seasoned (mature) console player added to that list, and hilarity doth ensue.

Of course, I am unfairly assuming that all the names on the list are not seasoned console shooter players. That is why hilarity would then ensue. Semi-celeb rage? Priceless.

Although he may not be a pro, Ocho Cinco not only plays Xbox Live a LOT, but he invites fans to play with him through Twitter almost every time.

Shooters?

I love me some Munn...

Olivia Munn can come to my party any time she wants...

The pants party?

pantsu party? : )

why the hell wasn't I invited?

Cause you're Rick James...Bitch!

You forgot to slap him.

who's to say he didn't?

Greg Grunberg killed as the voice of Ethan Thomas (whose name was so generically forgettable that I had to look it up) in the first Condemned. So disappointing that they didn't bring him back for the sequel.

Also, obligatory: Yum Olivia Munn blah blah, since that's pretty much going to be the rest of this comment section

I'd tap... Ya know, never mind.
Everyone can tell she is hot.

Also, if this goes anything like my experiences playing online in MW2, how long until the gay/racial slurs start rolling out over the headsets?

I'm smelling another Perez Hilton incident is a brewing...

I never thought of that but that's probably why he signed up in the first place. He's like the #2 attention whore on the internet behind Tila Tequila.

If you think Ocho Cinco is a semi-celebrity you've clearly never seen the glory that is his Twitter account. The guy will tell people where he is and offer the first 100 people to show up some kind of shopping spree. The man commands mobs at will!

so your saying he has to buy people to hang out with him? He's sooooo cool! -_-

His Twitter is priceless. He's not a semi-celebrity at all. He's one of the most marketable and high-paid players in the NFL, plus he's a beast. I think it's pretty cool that he makes his fans a part of his life by taking them to dinner and whatnot, even if he does play for the Bengals *blegh*.

Olivia is awesome. The End.

I guess the event planner could up the cool quotient by inviting video game bloggers?

TAKE EM OFF!

I guarentee G4 has a hand in this, cuz if they didn't Olivia wouldn't be involved.

And cmon Joystiq, we all know G4 is the new MTV, tons of hipster BS and no actual gaming.

If you think Ocho Cinco and DeSean Jackson are "semi-celebrities", you need to get out of your internet bubble.

this

Her show isn't too great, but I def. don't mind seeing her sexy self cover Game Cons.

i'd let her touch me down anyday.

dont ever let me see oliva in a dark ally ...

I think shes a beautiful woman but i like Morgan Webb alot more her smile melts my heart

I get a "semi-celebrity" in my pants when I see Olivia Munn.

munn might be a pseudo celebrity,
but Ochocinco?
Child Please

Or, Ochenta y Cinco for those who actually speak spanish.

So does nobody here actually watch football? Those players are all big names. Desean Jackson is a 1000 yard receiever from this season and had some of the most explosive plays. Faulk is a future hall of famer. Pat Willis was ROY. AND what about the gorgeous Stacy Kiebler.

im much more of a celebrity than those two.

Why so serious?

NO.........no.

I like how Olivia's smiles never really reach her eyes. I mean look at that picture. Can you see it? That's simmering rage, there.

Ok, I love gaming, but seriously - you think the dude from Heroes is
more of a celebrity than MARSHALL FAULK? Or Chad Ochocinco?
DeSean Jackson? Hell, even Matt Cassel is more of a celebrity than
the Heroes guy. At least, outside of geekdom.

I would enjoy sexual relations with the female in that photo.

Oh and I'm told there is an article underneath said photo related to a recent video game. Delightful!

I thought he was going to change his name back to Chad Johnson after being completely shut down by Darelle Revis?

And I gained so much respect for Chad Johnson at last year's (or was it the year before?) Pro Bowl. He destroyed that catching gauntlet thing by not dropping a pass. It was one of the most amazing feats of skill I've ever seen.

Olivia tweeted about 5 minutes ago, that she aint gonna be there.
