Nerding Out at L.A.'s Hottest Gaming Party
And when Brody Jenner, Josh Duhamel, Josh Henderson, Ryan Cabrera, Dane Cook, Jesse Metcalfe, Jason Gedrick, Channing Tatum, Matt Leinart and Jon Heder are playing with each other, you better believe I’m in on the action!
Although my friend and I arrived late, only Geoffrey Rush had arrived with his son. So we played games, noshed on fab edamame burgers and fried cheese balls, and drank wine out of modern looking military canteen cups.
I saw Arizona Cardinal QB Matt Leinart walk in with a set of cameras following his every move. I have to admit he’s cute, but he def hams it up oncamera.
I ran into Matt at the bar a few minutes later and as we caught up on life since USC (our Alma Mater), I grabbed an Asahi from the bartender in one hand and had a cup of red wine in the other. As I turned back to Matt, I managed to knock my wine smack into his hand and the cup went flying in the air. His $51million/year QB skills didn’t exactly come into play and the cup was fumbled! No recovery! Merlot soaked the QB’s shoes!
Matt was super cool about it as I turned a mortifyingly deep shade of red. Who does that!?!?!? It took a good 10 minutes to regain my composure, I felt so badly! But he was such a good sport.
At that point, loads of celebs had popped in. I was shocked by a goth looking AJ McLean (scary black eyeliner made him look a zillion years old!); saw Jesse Metcalfe with a drink in his hand wearing a perfectly fitted black collared shirt; Linkin Park band members going crazy on the machines; my friend gave Jon Heder some gaming tips. There was a lot going on!
Jason Gedrick (you probably saw him in Desperate Housewives this season) kept making eyes at me all night, until my friend finally introduced us. He has that hot rugged look down! He told me that his character might be coming back next season and I couldn’t be happier for him. And, I have to reveal that he totally asked for my digits! But as an FYI, I don’t care how gorgeous they are, I don’t date actors.
As I looked across the room, I saw Andrew Keegan talking to a bunch of girls who were obviously stretching the legal limit. Nudging my friends, I said, “That’s the guy from American Pie!”
“Umm no Kimmy. Chill on the wine, it’s not.”
Adamant (and a lil tipsy), I insisted and proceeded to wager a bet. My friend approached Andrew and asked him to clarify the bet we had. The second he was in front of me, I realized my bad. I could see that I was confusing Andrew Keegan (10 Things I Hate About You) with Thomas Ian Nicholas (American Pie). I recanted, but they wouldn’t let me get out of it. Andrew asked me what the bet was and I told him it didn’t matter, I had lost. But he insisted to know!
As I told him the deal, he optimistically said that he was offered Thomas’ part but turned it down for 10 Things I Hate About You! So while I was nowhere near right, it was so sweet of him to help me regain credibility. Just in the middle of a laugh, my friend pointed and knocked his hand into my wine glass. Of course, it landed all over me (and my white pants!) and for the second time that night, I felt a deep crimson on my cheeks. Andrew laughed and politely looked away while the group of boys laughed, patted my chest dry. I tried (again!) to regain composure.
At that point, I was done. I was ready to leave. But I couldn’t get away so easily. As I said goodbye to Andrew, I grabbed his arm… and of course… his drink went flying out of his hands. And all over him! As he stood there sopping with alcohol, I couldn’t believe that I had managed to do it again. I was kicking myself out!
Goofily getting myself to the bathroom to wipe off the mess, I saw Paris and Nicky by the DJ making requests. Paris had an adorable black and ivory silk sundress with the cutest copper leather headband and a matching Fendi purse. Ironically, she looked rather innocent. In complete contrast, Nicky was in black, toting a skull and crossbones studded handbag.
As we waited outside for valet, I covered up with the free hoody handed out at the exit. We waited next to a gorgeous looking Eliza Dushku and boyfriend Brad Penny (L.A. Dodgers). I tried to ask her how she got hooked up with the free Xbox she was holding, but she was too busy snuggling with Brad to give a complete sentence.
I jumped in the car as soon as it pulled up, eager to get away from anyone holding a drink in their hand. I had to escape before rumors spread that the “Serial Spiller” was making her rounds amongst the Young, Hot Hollywood elite!

so funny! how much was your dry cleanign bill?
I love Josh Duhamel.
seriously, you are the cutest klutz ever.
oh yeah, and why don't you date gorgeous actors!? You are crazy!
Paris and Nikki? When does that hooker go to Prison anyway?
You certainly are dangerous with a glass of red. May I suggest sticking to white from now on? Also, good decision not dating actors ;)
Oh god.
Face it buddy, video games, however mainstream, are still geek culture, and those "famous people there" clearly have a little bit of geek in them ;)
who the hell are you anyways? And Jason Gedrick is better than you any day, no way he asked for your number..liar!
