New Online Celebrity Dating game...

This is an interesting way to not only promote freedom of expression but a novel marketing idea as well.

For the next 14 weeks, men out there can have a chance at a dream date thanks to a new online dating contest sponsored by GoFish.com. Actress, Mirelly Taylor is the first celebrity "to seduce", she's appeared on movies such as Kiss Me Again and Serving Sara. She's also been on many television shows like “Las Vegas”, “Punk’d”, and “Numb3rs”. How does it work? Mirelly creates videos where she gives hints as to what kind of a man she is looking for. Men submit videos, and then the online community votes on these Free videos at GoFish.com GoFish.com. The finalists will be selected by the viewers with Mirelly Taylor having the final say of those finalists as to who will be the one selected. Better yet, just watch this video and you'll learn more:



Personally I think this could really take off, and it would be neat to see it include something like a non-date where you could actually have dinner with someone that you've always admired. It would give those of us who are happily married a chance to join in and submit our videos. I have quite a list of people I'd love to have a chat with, though I'm not really sure if I would want to practice having to kiss a piece of fruit...
