10 celebrities who play World of Warcraft
Posted by ari on Nov 26, 2008 in Entertainment • 3 commentsFirst of all, I should come clean about something.
I’m not really a Warcraft player or fan. Over the past few weeks I’ve had to report on a number of World of Warcraft events (see here and here). This has allowed me to meet and befriend many hardcore players and given me a better understanding of the game. These days, I’d describe myself as more of a WoW sympathiser.
But this new-found interest led me to think, out of more than 11 million players worldwide, some of these people have got to be famous. So here, in no particular order, is a top ten list of Warcraft-playing celebrities:
10. Dave Chappelle
British audiences may not be too familiar with Dave Chappelle (maybe you caught him in The Nutty Professor telling your mama jokes with Eddie Murphy? No? You missed out). He’s actually one of the most popular comedians on the planet, with a hit show Stateside.
“You know what I’ve been playing a lot of?” the comedian reportedly asked a crowd a few years back. “World of Warcraft!” When a few cheers broke out, he responded, “I knew I had some geek brothers and sisters up in here!”
