Nicole Scherzinger: The Poker Doll

As always, celebrities are experts in getting the attention of almost everybody. People find them entertaining no matter what they are doing. Watching them play poker is indeed a very entertaining experience. There is no better way to give money than to give it while enjoying as well. Playing poker offers them the opportunity to help while having fun at the same time.





Nicole Scherzinger and her other girl group pussy cat dolls also play poker! As I googled their sites, I stumble upon their poker island escapade where they play poker against a professional poker player for the first time. Here's some clip of their interview:

Speaker: The Pussycat Dolls don’t avoid water like other cats. More the opposite, on the yacht they showed how much they love water. Normally you would think that a day on a yacht with a lot of sun and water would be perfect, but when they arrived on Poker Island, the front kitten Nicole Scherzinger was speechless.

Nicole: We really didn’t knew what to expect from Ibiza, but we never thought we would see something like this. I never would imagine something like that.



Speaker: Nicole never played poker before. After a short entry they were supposed to play, against some real poker players from Poker Island. Thank good you can dope yourself in this kind of sport (they meant the alcohol ). Then Nicole says the cheers thing, you can hear it coz they didn’t put the voice over, over her voice.

Speaker: And wow, we don’t know if it was because of our camera or maybe they just had luck, they had some really great cards in the game.

Nicole: I just had pair two aces and two six’ , but Jess was better, she beat me, she had a full house. And no this has nothing in to do with the fact that she is sleeping with Bob Segatt.



Speaker: And as long as the game is, as harder they fight and the kittens have to search for some new tricks.

Kimberly: You have to know the game and you need the right Poker Face. In this game you just have to act like you have the best cards in the world and I am pretty good at it…at least for a beginner.

Speaker: No not that good, because more and more players went out, at the end just Nicole and one of the real players are in the game. And then it happens. (she hits the glass)



Player: Now you must leave the Table.

Nicole: Awww…but I am sorry, really! Damn…you don’t want to lose a poker game like this…! I am not a real player, or at least just when I am on stage and perform my songs Speaker: How this looks in Ibiza we show you on Monday in the VIP Lounge and tomorrow we go with the Pussycat Dolls to a hot Shooting.

About Nicole Scherzinger: She's a Hawaiian, Filipina and Russian descent, and comes from a large family of entertainers -- her mother, Rosemary, was a professional hula dancer and her grandmother was a respected Mariachi singer. As a teenager, she was the first runner-up at the 1996 Kentucky State Fair's Coca-Cola Talent Classic contest, and she appeared in several plays at Louisville's Actors Theater.

In 2000, she was chosen as a popstar group Eden's Crush. In 2003, a friend told Nicole about a casting call for a new group called the Pussycat Dolls and even though she missed the auditions, she was allowed to drop by and perform for the executives in charge.



They were so impressed with Nicole Scherzinger's stage presence and vocals that they opened discussions with her immediately about joining the group as lead singer, and soon reached an agreement.

The Poker Baywatch: Traci Bingham

Traci Bingham first appeared on the radar screen for most people when she portrayed Jordon Tate on the show Baywatch. It was here where she crossed a racial barrier. Traci was the first African American to don the red bathing suit of a Baywatch lifeguard. This wasn't exactly Jackie Robinson stepping on to the diamond at Dodger Field for the first time, but it got the attention of many of us. What will probably come as a mild surprise to most is that Traci Bingham is a young lady with a Harvard education.




Beginning her post high school academic career at Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland, Ohio Traci showed exceptional flair. She then went on to the prestigious Ivy League University. The acting bug got under her skin though, and she dropped out of Harvard to pursue a career in front of the camera. Harvard's loss is our gain.

Since opting out of a Harvard degree, Traci has appeared in literally dozens of projects. Most of her time has been spent working on ventures for television, but she has popped up in a few feature films as well. She has also turned more than her share of heads with a high profile appearance in playboy.

The online casino site Empire Poker has tapped former ''Baywatch" star Traci Bingham to be the website's new spokesgirl. The Cambridge native's likeness will be used in conjunction with Empire Poker on its website and all media events. ''Traci will be seen at high profile venues such as red carpet events and poker tournaments wearing Empire Poker gear," the company said in a release.

Recently Traci Bingham has joined forces with Empire Poker. Like many other celebrities today she has found herself gravitating towards the game of Texas Hold'em, and the move to Empire Poker just became a natural fit. Traci will be appearing at poker events, like the World Poker Tour and World Series of Poker, as well as number of other high-profile events wearing the Empire Poker gear. She will also be appearing in their print and television ads. It is beginning to look like trading her red bathing suit in for an Empire Poker T-shirt is one of the best moves this young lady has ever made.

About Traci Bingham: Traci's fame from Baywatch led to small-time hosting gigs on shows like Candid Camera and MTV's Bikini Beach Party. But prior to that, she also appeared in small roles on The Cosby Show, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and The Young & The Restless, among others.

Just when things were getting red hot for Traci with her 1998 spread for Play.boy, she was taken out of the Baywatch script by the time her issue was released. That didn't stop Traci from keeping busy though, as she added modeling to her resume and has appeared on a slew of magazine covers, and took on small television roles in Sin City Spectacular, The Jamie Foxx Show, Strip Mall, Malcolm & Eddie, The Parkers, as well as occupying a square on the game show, Hollywood Squares.

Tuc Watkins Wins At Poker For A Cause

They say being a celebrity is the busiest job that they can't even have their own time for some leisure activities, who says that? Nowadays, a lot of celebrities are in attacked by the poker bug and they play poker not only for their fun time, they also play for a notable cause.

Last October 17, 2009, One of the most leading Child Service organization in Los Angeles held it first Annual Celebrity Poker Tournament to Benefit for the Traumatized Children that was hosted by the “Ghost Whisperer” actress, Camryn Manheim together with WSOP champion Jamie Gold as a co-host. The fundraiser was to benefit children who have been affected by violence in their homes or communities.

More than 20 celebrities supported and joined the notable celebrity poker tournament including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Jamie Kennedy, Kevin Nealon, Joely Fisher, Mekhi Phifer, Cheri Oteri, Mimi Rogers, Alison Sweeney, Jennie Garth , Nicolas Gonzales, Cheryl Hines, Ricki Lake Kevin Rahm. At the final table, Cheryl Hines, Tuc Watkins, Kevin Rahm and Ricki Lake take the seat. Kevin Rahm and Tuc Watkins, both on "Desperate Housewives", battled it out as 2 of the final 3 players. Tuck Watkins ultimately won the grand prize.

The Desperate Housewives actor Tuc Watkins has now one of the much awaited celebrity poker players be in the lists of Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Shannon Elizabeth and Jennifer Tilly.

About Tuc Watkins: Throughout his college years at Indiana University, Tuc dabbled in regional theater, and by the time he'd graduated, acting would be his chosen career. In 1990, Tuc started getting a few more opportunities. Unfortunately, his first big gig, a guest spot on the sitcom, Growing Pains, landed on the cutting room floor. Tuc's next role, however, in Chris Elliott's Fox TV sitcom, Get A Life, was much bigger and a little more memorable.

More guest spots followed, including Baywatch, Sibs, Laurie Hill, The Edge, Santa Barbara, Sisters, Melrose Place, and a brief uncredited role in the feature film, Little Sister. At the same time, Tuc helped found a theater group with a few friends called The All-U-Can-Eat Players. Several theatrical productions followed, then Tuc got his first big break: the role of David Vickers on One Life To Live.



Tuc moved from L.A. to New York City during his popular two year stint on OLTL, and managed to fit in an Off-Broadway play in the meantime. In 1997, Tuc won the role of Sterling Scott, a vain but sweet soap opera hunk in the independent feature film, I Think I Do. The role won Tuc plenty of accolades and led to even more work. Guest cameos in the independent films, Can't Stop Dancing and The Thin Pink Line came next, and were followed by Tuc's biggest film to date, The Mummy.

In August, 2003, Tuc returned to Llanview for three years in the familar form of David Vickers on One Life To Live and periodically after that. In August 2007, it was announced that Watkins will play one half of a new gay couple on Wisteria Lane on ABC's Desperate Housewives.

Celebrity Poker Player: David Schwimmer

From the infectious TV series “Friends” and the theme song i'll be there for you made most of us want to be part of the show. David Schwimmer appeared way back in the early nineties as Ross Gellar. He was the ludicrous, stammering, PhD who married a lesbian and spent the early part of the series bumbling from one scene to another with a pet monkey on his shoulder.

After a while of this most men in the audience wanted to slap some sense into the guy, and in real life a "man and his monkey" is not a formula for popularity, but in this case it worked. He also become one half of the "Luke and Laura" of generation X. As he chased down Rachael (Jennifer Anniston) most of us quietly told ourselves she could do better, but secretly wanted to see them together. "Friends" is done now though, and David Schwimmer spends his residuals at the poker tables in Vegas.

Schwimmer took his passion for poker back to the small screen where he earned his fortune. He was one of the first players to appear on the show, "Celebrity Poker Showdown". Not only did he get to indulge his passion here though, but he got to preview the film that he and fellow Celebrity Poker alumni, Ben Affleck, are working on. They are filming a "Mockumentary" this year that centers around their shared addiction to Hold'em. The setting for this film is the Las Vegas's "Golden Nugget" and released in 2006.

Schwimmer, unlike many on "Celebrity Poker Challenge" is a true enthusiast. It may not be long before we see him playing with the big boys on the World Poker Tour or the World Series of Poker.

About David Schwimmer: Born in Queens, NY and raised by his lawyer parents in Southern California, Schwimmer got his first taste for acting at age 10 when he was cast as the fairy godmother in a Jewish version of Cinderella. He continued to appear on stage at Beverly Hills High School where his classmates included Jonathan Silverman.

He landed his first regular series gig as the liberal son of a conservative talk show host in the failed Henry Winkler vehicle "Monty" before finding success on "Friends". Schwimmer successfully used his hangdog looks as Ross, the heartbroken hopeless romantic of the group and his anxious delivery coupled with the somewhat nebbish manner made him a standout on the show. He earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in 1995.

As the final season of "Friends" came to close in 2004—promising closure on the long-running Ross-Rachel relationship—Schwimmer set his sights on the future early on, directing episodes of the show's spin-off "Joey" starring his co-star Matt LeBlanc. In 2005 the actor made his London stage debut at the Gielgud Theater in the play "Some Girls" opposite Lesley Manville and Saffron Burrows.

He also voiced Melman the Giraffe in “Madagascar” , Disney’s animated adventure about four zoo animals who escape and inadvertently find themselves in Africa where the city slickers struggle to survive in the wild.

Celebrity Poker Hunk: Bradley Cooper

In anticipation of the release of the new comedy movie “The Hangover,” Warner Bros. Pictures hosted a celebrity charity poker tournament at The Poker Room of Caesars Palace last Friday, the stars of the latest Vegas-based comedy, “The Hangover,” will return to the scene of their soon-to-be-released film on Friday for a star-studed cahrity poker tournament.

Another glazed to my eye is the hunk and impressive poker face guy, Bradley Cooper. In the interview of collider.com, Bardley Cooper explains his experiences in the comedy movie of all time:

Collider's Question: Is this considered a dark comedy?

Bradley Cooper: Yes. There is a lot of darkness in this thing. But we’ve had a blast. No one realizes that we work all the time. I mean, we haven’t had any real time off at all. We’ve been doing a couple of six-day weeks. The great thing about it is that I’ve seen quite a few areas of Vegas that I never would have gotten to see. We shot at the Riviera, and downtown. We shot in the old part of Vegas, which you don’t really see anymore. You are going to see Vegas in the daytime. As far as I know, you don’t really see Vegas in the movies during the daytime. Most of these movie takes place during the day. This takes place during the day after the night.

Collider's Question: Can you tell us how you got involved? And what appealed to you about the script?

Bradley Cooper: Sure. I got involved early on. I think it was back in November. Todd had the script, and it was sort of banging around. I liked Todd. I certainly was a fan of his. I thought the opportunity to play this guy was something I liked. He is an alpha male. It wasn’t that I necessarily liked the character. I liked the synergy between the three guys. I liked that each one was so specific. And together, if you cast it properly, I thought it could have a lot of energy. I also liked the script itself. I liked the way it moved. It is fast. It is no joke. It’s like getting on a jet plane that just takes off and goes, and it doesn’t slow down until it lands. It’s rare that you get a comedy that has that type of engine. Each scene propels you to the next one. It’s more like Starsky and Hutch than Old School. Even though it’s a comedy, there is a mystery to it. It’s not like Old School, where it was just about the comedy. Here, we have an engine. We have to get this guy back to the wedding. Or else we fail. That engine really drives it. It is so fast.

Collider's Question: What have you been up to in Vegas?

Bradley Cooper: Just work. We’ve been working this entire time.

Collider's Question:The other guys say they’ve been gambling.

Bradley Cooper: Oh, there has been a little bit of gambling. But like I said, I could get in trouble in this town. I try to stay away from those sorts of things.

Collider's Question:How did you do in the big poker game?

Bradley Cooper: I did better than I thought I would. I survived through the third table. I am not really a poker player.

About Bradley Cooper: Bradley Cooper is an accomplished actor on stage, in movies and also on television. Bradley Cooper is one of Hollywood's busiest actors. Bradley Cooper was most recently seen in the comedy "Yes Man," in which he co-starred with Jim Carrey under the direction of Peyton Reed, and in the ensemble romantic comedy "He's Just Not That Into You."

Following "The Hangover," Bradley Cooper stars in several very different films due out in 2009: "All About Steve," a quirky tale in which Cooper plays the title role as the object of Sandra Bullock's attention; the horror thriller "Case 39," opposite Renée Zellweger; and the biopic "The Prince of Providence," in which he stars with Robin Williams and Oliver Platt.

Bradley Cooper also appears in the anthology film "New York, I Love You," in a segment directed by Allen Hughes. The American version of "Paris, je t'aime," the film debuted at the 2008 Toronto Film Festival and is set for a 2009 release. Bradley Cooper is rumored to be the nest green lantern.

Born in Philadelphia, Bradley Cooper graduated with honors from the English program at Georgetown University before moving to New York City to obtain his Masters in the Fine Arts program at the Actors Studio Drama School at the New School University.
