Ubisoft releasing Your Shape featuring Jenny McCarthy
Oh, wipe that smug little smirk off your face, mister. We've already established that Jenny McCarthy is more hardcore than you are. Now, the Red Alert 3 performer is teaming with Ubisoft for Your Shape featuring Jenny McCarthy. If you can remember all the way back to E3 '09, you'll recall the original announcement of Your Shape, the Wii exercise game that utilizes a packed-in camera.Boy, it seems like a lucky break that Ubisoft got Jenny McCarthy, considering it put her name right in the title. Imagine how embarrassing it would have been if she'd been unavailable!
Jenny McCarthy has been gaming longer than you
When she's not busy appearing in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 or starring in commercials for amazing PS1 games, Jenny McCarthy is a gaming mom. Speaking to WhatTheyPlay this week, McCarthy says she started playing Pac-Man at the age of eight. "I even made my own Atari glove because I had blisters all over my hand from playing Pac-Man," she notes, saying her own mom bought her the game with an Atari 2600 as a reward for getting a vaccination shot.While she claims she fell out of gaming because of "cheerleading and boys," gaming also apparently helped to keep her marriage to Double Dragon film star [actor] John Asher alive. "That's all we basically did; we just played video games. That saved our marriage -- playing video games." Her current significant other, Jim Carrey, reportedly has a Wii, though McCarthy says she's doing less gaming and more writing these days (having penned "six books in four years"). "I can't compete with these kids now. They've grown up with this kind of technology ... I'm like the brains behind the guy who's using the controller."
