Yes, you heard me right. Nicole's not satisfied with the film biz alone; apparently the 40-year old actress has quite a weakness for the make-you-smarter DS titles. Perhaps she namedropped at the right time, for now it seems she has been chosen to front the Nintendo advertising campaign for its "brain training" titles. While this news doesn't quite hold up to the sizzle of the Salt N Pepa reunion, it certainly made me perk and take notice.
Personally I'm ambivalent to Nicole, but I'm wondering what demographic Nintendo thought they would appeal to by including the actress in their campaign. If this is to set a trend, I have several votes for famous people I would like to see representing game product. Michael Jackson is an obvious choice, as he has such appeal with kids. Place any game on Scarlett Johnansson's naked breasts and I'm likely to buy it. Also, I'd be willing to pay to see Paris Hilton playing Nintendogs on her pink DS in jail.

Then again, she is a redhead.
And an Aussie.
And she DOES like Nintendo...
...so conflicted... ;_;
Nicole Kidman will haunt my nightmares :(
But I don't think posting a picture contradictory to someone's post suggestion is reason for ban. Lord knows I've accidentally posted a 2 page long picture on here before (total accident!) and I didn't see a ban, nor did I have to explain myself for it to the higher ups.
I would say that these things are tolerable provided we don't start getting hammered with Hunter99 posts about getting WOW gold. Hunter99 is a douchbag.
Mmm, minty fresh.
That is not cruel.
You have no idea how cruel we *can* be.
I believe you are just green, a total newbie.
Grow some labia, call back, we'll be here. And no more stupid, Come back with stupid and you will meet the hammer.
If your not new to the internet: The help you need is very expensive and you should probably just kill yourself.
Thank You.

Nicole is totally ghey.
/the internet is a cruel place
the guy is pretty cool.
And if when you see a sexy picture of Nicole Kidman, and the first thing you think about is Tom Cruise in her vagina you are obviously very gay.
I would have sex with her in a second without thinking about it.
