Another "Celebrity" Gets a Wii Game

Saturday July 11, 2009
Nothing says "commitment to high quality" quite like getting some model to front your Wii yoga game. Oh wait, I didn't mean "commitment to high quality," I meant "cheap marketing gimmick." My mistake.

Falling on the celebrity scale somewhere between Daisy Fuentes, star of an upcoming pilates game, and Connie Talbot, future star of a singing game, Anja Rubik is a model who appears to have no yoga credentials at all: there's no reference to yoga on her wikipedia page and not even a picture of her doing yoga on her (which has dozens of boring model pictures of a long-faced blonde along with a handful of interesting cool/creepy pastels).

Apparently publishers are pretty desperate for celebrities to attach to their video games. If you're a hot model looking to hook up with a video game publisher, feel free to drop by my apartment and I'll help you with my, uh ....... contacts in the industry?
