Coming this holiday season to the Nintendo Wii, a star-studded video game spectacle: Celebrity Sports Showdown! Celebs like Fergie, Nelly Furtado, Keith Urban, LeAnn Rimes, Sugar Ray Leonard, Kristi Yamaguchi, Paul Pierce, Reggie Bush, and Mia Hamm go head-to-head in games of fighter-jet racing, slalom skiing, inner-tubing, curling, canoeing and volleyball - Yes, that's Fergie (wearing a Tiara?) and Nelly getting physical in a game of dodgeball. Can't wait to get our hands on this one to take it for a test drive, but we're loving the fact that it will accommodate up to four players for multiplayer action. Stay tuned for more info and release dates!
