Top 10 Unlikely Celebrity Gamers You Might Have Played With
09. Megan Fox (Xbox)
Just because she is a regular at San Diego Comic Con doesn’t necessarily make Meagan Fox a gamer - she could just really love comics or even graphic novels... A lot...
Or she could be an actor who, in addition to performing roles in movies also does voice acing in the video games that were made from the movies that she acted in...
The thing is, as it turns out, in addition to her primary role as an angel who has fallen from Heaven, Megan Fox doubles part-time as a female human who also happens to like comics and graphic novels, be an actor in movies, do voice work for video games reprising roles that she created in the movies, and oh yeah, be a gamer.
If you think that describes a perfect life there are a few blemishes you might find disturbing: put it this way, how would you like being constantly confused with an incredibly irresponsible, despised, and well-hated woman (Farrah Abraham) from MTV's reality-disaster television show '16 And Pregnant' or having strangers actively hate you due to confusing you with the characters that you play in movies?What is the explanation for someone like her not simply liking video games but loving them?
'I've never really socialized, I've always been anti-social and preferred to be at home. I was never, even in my late teens and early twenties, into clubs and parties and stuff like that.'
Journo Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub sat down with Fox to do an interview during the 2012 Toronto Film Festival for Collider in which, among many other topics, video games cropped up.
Frosty: What is the last video game that you played?
Fox: Halo. [laughs] You can ask my husband that question independently of me if he is out there. I have a complete addiction to that game. It is sick.
Frosty: Which version of Halo?
Fox: I have Halo: Reach, but I am playing online. I don’t really play in story mode anymore.
Frosty: Are you on Xbox Live?
Fox: Yes.
Frosty: So you play with other people and they have no idea?
Fox: They have no idea. They make fun of my gamer tag too because it is funny. And they are all a bunch of guys and it is clear that I am a girl so they make fun of my name, and they have no idea they are making fun of me.
You hear that guys? You have been making fun of Megan Fox while she kicks your ass in Halo!

Terribly written article, did you even spell-check this?
Felicia Day
Aisha Tyler
Nathan Fillion is not here.
Wat.
good article, although i could've enjoyed it more without that long introduction..
Mila has actually done voice work for more games than you think - it seems that some of the work she does in games is under a pseudonym. As for the question as to whether she is a gamer or an addict - I have to ask, just what is the difference?
As far as the statement that consoles are for kids and PCs for adults, I don't agree with that. Not at all.
So Milla Kunis plays the voice of the chick that tries to kill the awesome Benjamin "MFK" King? Wow...
DayZ SA is the best MMO out there right now.
Consoles are for kids, PC gaming is for real adults.
I played Ultima Online for years, I wonder if I ever ran into Robin Williams unknowingly.
I did 3's with Robin a few times and he was really good
RIP Jett
Yes, it sucks that he went that way... By all accounts he was a pretty awesome person and a great gamer.
RIP Robin Williams :(
