All you video game fans, rejoice! EA has announced the legendary lineup of players who will launch FIFA Soccer 12, the new game out on September 27. Matt Bilbey, the VP of the EA sports soccer division stated, “This is an iconic group of players who all passionately play our game, and we are excited to have them speak to fans around the world about their own personal experiences playing the best sports game on the planet.” Agreed!

Here are the players. We SO look forward to their involvement with this amazing game.

Wayne Rooney, Kaka, Jack Wilshere, Phillippe Mexès, Karim Benzema, Giampaolo Pazzini, Gerard Pique, Xabi Alonso, Mats Hummels, Tim Cahill, Valentin Stocker, Vasili Berezutski and Balazs Dzsudsak.

Who are you excited to see?

This summer it was announced that Messi is in the process of beginning his own clothing line for men. Of course, the pieces are expected to be “high end” — in other words, Messi is out to beautify the world by making everyone somewhat GQ. Messi the designer? We never saw this coming! Considering he hasn’t been recognized for his taste in attire, this is a shocker to us — but we’re excited to see the results! Messi has already made plans to have an “ambassador” for his brand for each area of the world. Some include:

David Beckham for LA

Frank Lampard for London

Wayne Rooney for Manchester

Jay-Z for New York

Colin Farrell for Dublin

Messi has said: “I have been working on it for a few months.“It would be me in Barcelona. We’ve approached Wayne for Manchester, Frank for London, and Colin for Dublin. We have spoken with Jay-Z for New York and the dream is to have David for LA. I already have Alessandro Nesta and (rapper) Lupe Fiasco in Milan and Chicago.”

Alessandro Nesta for Milan

 Lupe Fiasco for Chicago ”It will be high-end clothes and accessories for men. I’d like to open the initial shops by next summer. If we get all the names we are trying for, we can be the most famous and best men’s fashion brand in the world.”

Well there you have it, ladies! Would you dress up your man in Messi’s designs? 

XOXO,
