Maybe but I dont know who exactly you mean when you say "celebrity" but honestly like 80% of the time big celebs arent ever home. To make that much money you have to work, and a lot. But you are right about the part of them getting systems for free, they get everything free. Its pathetic really because its not like they need anything and yet the get more than anyone else
Actually alot more celebrities then you think play video games. Alot of sports stars love thier video game systems and alot of movie and tv stars insist that they have a tv hook up in thier on the set trailer to play thier systems on. I don't know if you remember Hootie and the Blowfish but I used to bartend all of the lead singers parties at his house on Kiawah Island Resort. After I was done setting up and before the party me and Darius and some of his friends would have dead or alive tournaments! I also met alot of celebrities bartending at clubs in downtown Charleston and we would always end up talking about video games. What you have to remember is that at the end of the day celebrities are just like you and me. Just with alot more money and fame. So yeah celebrities do play video games just like we do. _________________________________________________________

Shit, I see interviews, Bios and all kinds of stuff on tv showing celebrities at work, those assholes are always on the Playstation or xbox. They play on thier tour busses, dressing rooms, home and even in rehab. Havent you guys ever seen the show cribs, Those guys are always bragging about how good they are at this game or that game.
The senator of Guam is a high ranking dawrf mage on WOW, and even is the head of a huge clan, There is an oriental US prono star ( sorry cant remember her name) who is a hard core FPS gamer on PC and has even reprogramed her entire keyboard for gaming. And she is one bussy girl.
