Thousands Support Petition To Make Britney Spears The Next "Super Smash Bros." Character
Britney Spears is a known ass-kicker. She kicked the pop industry’s ass, she kicked that Range Rover’s ass, and she’s kicked Christina Aguilera’s ass more times than we can count.
Soon enough, Britney Jean may be kicking the asses of Yoshi, Donkey Kong, and Pikachu as a playable character in Nintendo’s "Super Smash Bros."
Nintendo is searching for the next character to add to its growing lineup of fighters players can choose to take into battle. On the company's website, anyone can suggest a character for the honor, so long as they’re from a video game.
And here’s the great news: Britney actually is a character from a video game. Don’t you remember playing the iconic "Britney’s Dance Beat" for Playstation 2 in 2001?
Thanks to one devoted Tumblr user, getting Britney in the game has become a movement. The master list of user-suggested characters isn’t public, but the Tumblr post advocating for Britney’s character has racked up thousands of reblogs.
Voting ends October 3. After that, Nintendo will most likely present a list of the most-voted characters for another round of public voting. We’re just assuming Britney will make it this far because, well, she’s Britney, bitch.
The biggest question now is, will Britney play the game as herself? Um, duh, of course she will. Didn't you know she shows up to her concerts 3-4 hours early just to get in some game time?:
