Electronic Arts announced that Hilary Duff will make her video game debut in The Sims. Through this partnership, Hilary will appear in The Sims 2 Pets games, joined by her beloved Chihuahua Lola, releasing on October 17th. (This is the third dog this week I’ve had to bold as they’re becoming famous in their own rights!)

Here’s what Hilary had to say about it:

“I’ve logged hundreds of hours playing The Sims games, so I jumped at the chance to be in The Sims 2 Pets,” said Sims aficionado Hilary. “I love creating Sims characters and guiding them through life, designing their houses and then blinging them out with cool furniture. Now, in The Sims 2 Pets, EA has combined two things I really enjoy —pets and The Sims!

“Although she’s trying not to let it go to her head, Lola is very excited to make her cameo in The Sims 2 Pets next month!” exclaimed Hilary about her two year old Blue Fawn Teacup Chihuahua, Lola. “We can’t wait to hang at Central Town Park, play with other pups and shop around for the latest pet accessories!”
