Today, GameSpot is premiering a brand-new show called Star Players, in which we interview celebrity guests and chat to them about their favorite video games and more.
Hosted by GameSpot’s Lucy James, Star Players kicks off today with a sit-down with Monet X Change, the multi-talented, classically trained singer and winner of Rupaul’s Drag Race All Stars who put out a new album, Grey Rainbow Vol. 1, back in May. Monet X Change discusses their favorite video games, how they got started playing, their favorite gaming memories, and more. They even go head-to-head with Lucy in Smash. Check out the episode below.
Guests in episodes to come include Steve-O, Aisha Tyler, and Dominic Monaghan. Steve-O is the legendary performer from Jackass, while Tyler is known for her voice roles in games like Halo: Reach and Watch Dogs. She also hosted Ubisoft’s E3 press conferences back in the day. Monaghan, meanwhile, played memorable roles in the video games Quantum Break and Call of Duty: Vanguard, among others. He of course also portrayed Merry in The Lord of the Rings and Charlie on Lost.
In every episode of Star Players, guests will discuss the video games that shaped their lives and talk about their own personal history with video games. You can expect guests to talk about the first game that got them hooked, some of their best memories playing games, their guiltiest pleasures and proudest achievements in games, and of course, their favorite game of all time.
New episodes in Star Players debut Mondays at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET.
