Lara Croft claims to be an archaeologist
The video we're referring to isn't embeddable, so we're afraid this is one of those old-fashioned, "go check out this thing on the internet" posts. The buxom thing in question is a deliciously awkward interview with official Lara Croft impersonator, Alison Carroll. Shortly after confirming that Lara Croft is indeed an archaeologist, the lithe leading lady flounders and grows visibly annoyed upon being asked, "When did they find the Tomb of Tutankhamun?"Of course, rather than humor the interviewer (1922, by the way) and risk making a fictional video game character look bad, Ms. Carroll summons her caretaker to shut down the pesky journalist. Take that, question man![Via UK:Resistance]
New Lara Croft model shows she speaks, does tricks
Yesterday, Alison Carroll was revealed as the latest promotional Lara Croft flesh-model for the Tomb Raider franchise. Today, there's a couple videos of Carroll talking (boring) and doing flips in short-shorts (wheee!). OK, before the feminists have a freak out, we're totally semi kidding. To her credit, Carroll used to be a gymnast, so she actually can do some of Lady Croft's more stylish moves.If hearing Carroll's British accent ups the Tomb Raider heroine's sex appeal and gets you to buy Underworld this November, then the girl's done her job. The videos of Carroll's meeting with the press can be found after the break.[Thanks, jkaccnt]
Cosplaying for cash: Meet the new Lara Croft model
Her real name is Alison Carroll, but for the purposes of your fantasies you may refer to her as Lady Croft. The Sun has some pics of the 23-year-old, who was revealed today as the new public body of the polygonal heroine. The model will now travel the globe, hunting for her next paycheck, as she meets fans and swallows her pride "acting out stunts from the game."There's a few more details about the model/actress in The Sun story, but the only important thing to know is that she's single and ready to mingle. Yes boys, slather on some Drakkar Noir and work some extra-stiff gel through that greasy hair because Ms. Croft is available. For those who actually care about the game that Carroll will be promoting, Tomb Raider: Underworld will be available Nov. 18 in NA and Nov. 21 in Europaland.
