  • I can't use my group.

  • Welcome to watch Mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10.

  • Worst celebrity cameos and video games.

  • All right, let's go bruh.

  • Oh, Critic Yes, from the Bronx, New York A natural, mhm, mhm, Mhm For this list, we're looking at cameos made by celebrities that were questionable, underwhelming or just all around.

  • Terrible.

  • Which celebrity cameo made you say?

  • WTF.

  • Let us know in the comments below Number 10 Justin Bieber NBA two k 13.

  • It's the Toronto Raptors taking on the celebrity team in a Sports Sim series like the NBA two K games.

  • One would think the developers wanted to keep the spotlight on the incredible athletes that made basketball so exciting to watch.

  • However, NBA two K 13 got its roster overshadowed by the mere presence of singer Justin Bieber.

  • We'll go to Doris Berg, who spoke with head coach Dwane Casey.

  • What's the news, Doris?

  • His focus.

  • Kevin seemed to be on the task of breaking down this defense.

  • It's hard to think of a good reason for him being in the game.

  • Did he just convince the games executive producer and fellow musician Jay Z to add him to the game.

  • Because no matter how Bieber got onto the court, we're pretty sure that most NBA fans weren't begging for his cameo.

  • Did two K 13 need the publicity that badly?

  • That's going to be over and back, not watching for the line that time number nine.

  • Just laying Raza, a k a.

  • Star Wars kid.

  • Tony Hawk's underground to gas station burritos, plus a van crammed with dudes.

  • Nothing like a 90 mile an hour Dutch oven.

  • The Star Wars kid became an unintentional Internet legend after recording, where he showcased his love for the sci fi franchise turned into a viral video.

  • Unfortunately, his appearance at Tony Hawks Underground, too, has turned the game into a product of its time.

  • Yeah, mhm, mhm mm.

  • Somewhere in the game, you can jump into an apartment and find him displaying his lightsaber skills in his living room.

  • Although it may have been meant as a harmless Easter egg to immortalize Raza, the cameo still feels a little mean spirited.

  • Given how much the real Raza was harassed for the original viral video, it would have been better to honor him with a move or just made him a playable character.

  • Excuse me, I'll invent a move called the Franklin Number eight.

  • Jamie Kennedy, ESPN NFL two K five.

  • Hey, it's Jamie Kennedy.

  • Let's get the party started, huh?

  • All right, let's go bruh.

  • After Jamie Kennedy presented Activision's 2000 and seven e three press conference while intoxicated, he garnered a notorious reputation in the video game industry.

  • With this in mind, his appearance in ESPN NFL two K becomes even more cringe worthy to look back on than it already was.

  • Paul decides to take it out of the enzyme alrighty.

  • The 16.

  • The comedian comes with his own celebrity football team, known as the Upper Darby cheesecakes.

  • He also likes to comment on almost every play made with Child is trash talk or smarmy comments.

  • Kennedy gets so annoying that there are times we'd rather shut the game off and go outside.

  • This game honestly, would have been fine without Kennedy's presence.

  • Owens.

  • That's six in the bank Now Watch a game interest Do number seven Dua Lipa FIFA 21.

  • Yeah, kicking it down.

  • It's right Yodo with a highlight for the low low with nothing in ESPN soccer Sim dual IPO was made playable as one of the Volta groundbreakers.

  • If you win a match against her, you'd be able to recruit her as part of your team.

  • Oh, pretty Yes.

  • Why does this cool idea get on the list?

  • Well, you don't really get to see your team's faces all that much in these games.

  • The only time you really get a good look at your players is from when goals are made or if you're watching replays.

  • So outside of her stats for cameo is sort of pointless.

  • The worst part is that she was only available for a limited time.

  • Making the cameo looked like she was only there to generate buzz.

  • This queen deserves better.

  • Damn it!

  • Yeah!

  • Number six Michael Jackson ready to rumble Boxing round two.

  • Yeah, you can't win the titles mind Don't you know who you're messing with?

  • They're ready to rumble.

  • Games were known for featuring odd celebrity cameos.

  • The second game weirdly featured Shaquille O Neal and Bill Clinton as playable characters.

  • However, the most bizarre of them all was Michael Jackson.

  • Oh, while he was definitely known as an incredible dancer, we're not sure about the extent of his boxing skills.

  • The king of Pop's in game weight of £125 also put him at an additional disadvantage against heavyweights like Mama Tua or even shock.

  • Realistically, Jackson's lack of experience relative to his opponents and slim figure made it hard to believe he could win any of the games.

  • Matches my ears.

  • Who's the King?

  • Number five?

  • The Burger King fight Night Round three, New York Mhm.

  • With sports games costing around 60 to 70 bucks today, players are growing less and less tolerant of product placement and in game ads.

  • But, sadly, sports games have been doing this for a long time.

  • One of the most obnoxious examples could be found in Fight Night.

  • Round three.

  • I'm highly off Florida Heo Rameau.

  • This title received heavy scrutiny for letting you enlist the Burger King as your trainer.

  • While his appearance is brief, his face was clearly a shameless attempt to squeeze in more sponsorship money for the game.

  • Even the games achievements weren't safe from branding.

  • Several of them were tied to real life companies.

  • However, the achievement for winning the Burger King Invitational fight had to be the most obnoxious of them all.

  • Yes, yeah, Number four Terry Crews, Crackdown three.

  • Well, there is.

  • Yeah.

  • While this is less of a cameo and more of a leading role, the significance of Terry Crews presence made it impossible not to include throughout Crackdown three's marketing.

  • We were given the impression that Cruz was going to have a heavy hand in the game story as Commander Isaiah Jackson.

  • Imagine our excitement when we booted up the game, eager to have crews yelling ridiculous things in our ears.

  • Instead, we technically play as a copy of his character who says a small heaping of lines.

  • Yeah, wait for the Pain train.

  • We may as well have played as a random avatar with his voice if they weren't going to give his character a deep personality after the 1st 10 minutes.

  • Unbelievable.

  • Number three.

  • Jesse James.

  • Tony Hawks Underground to what's happening?

  • Slick.

  • Thank you, thank you.

  • There was a time where Jesse James is a highly respected figure in the world of reality television and modified cars.

  • So some players found it cool to see him in a game like Tony Hawks underground, too.

  • But alas, this is another cameo that did not age well.

  • His reputation took huge hits in the years after the game came out between his legal troubles and personal controversies.

  • James also had a very public divorce from Sandra Bullock after he was caught being unfaithful tour.

  • In light of his major setbacks, most people who come across this cameo today would feel like he was undeserving of the honor.

  • Yeah, Number two avenged, seven fold Call of duty Black Ops two.

  • Let's go kill this thing, Rob Double time.

  • That means you.

  • Menendez granted Avenged seven Fold, has a lengthy history with the call of duty franchise.

  • They've been making songs of the franchise since the first black ops.

  • However, there was one scene in the second black ops that felt rather forced.

  • In a post credit scene.

  • The band puts on a concert as they play carry on.

  • Characters from the game are seen dancing in the audience.

  • Unnecessary?

  • Yes, hokey Also, yes, we're sure the idea for this sounded good on paper but felt like an ending.

  • Similar to cookie cutter animated films marketed towards families, couldn't they have come up with a short bit for laughs instead?

  • What EVs Before we reveal gaming's worst celebrity cameos here are a few other WTF mentions.

  • Jeff Goldblum, The Lost World, Jurassic Park.

  • He only shows up upon completing the game and lectures you way to go, Way to go!

  • You made it through You made it through You spend all that time and now you're done, You're dead.

  • Christopher Walk in Ripper.

  • His delivery says, What am I doing here?

  • All right?

  • Visiting hours over.

  • There's nothing here.

  • You haven't seen the other murder sites except a few extra gallons of body fluids.

  • Funkmaster Flex, ESPN NFL two K five.

  • Can we all just agree?

  • The whole thing was a weird sports Sim.

  • That's the way.

  • Uh huh.

  • I like it.

  • Number one.

  • Kurt Cobain, Guitar Hero.

  • Five.

  • Yeah, this one was just outright disrespectful for those unfamiliar with Nirvana.

  • Cobain served the band as the lead singer and often conveyed a strong stance against commercialism.

  • Tragically, the legendary musician would take his own life in April of 1994 Fast forward to 2009, where Activision used his likeness to make him a playable character and guitar hero.

  • Five.

  • His portrayal sparked backlash and even discussions of lawsuits from Courtney Love, who was married to Kobane.

  • The bizarre decision to include his avatar also made gamers questioned the ethics behind commercializing those who have long since passed.

  • Overall, many felt this cameo is more insensitive than honorable.

  • I don't know in the mood for more awesome gaming content.
