In WoW she has been known to use the name Captain Janeway and primarily plays as a Gnome Mage. Mila has even shared that her manager would sometimes log onto the game to message her while she was mid gaming session.
Another lover of World of Warcraft is Henry Cavill. He is such a big fan that he almost missed the call from Zack Snyder informing him he had the role of Superman due to being busy playing the game!

Casino games are thrilling, whether they are played online or at a land-based casino. Many of us now enjoy playing casino games online, such as online roulette games that are offered at most major casino providers. One fan of roulette, in particular, is One Direction star, Harry Styles. 

While touring in Australia back in the days when One Direction was performing as a band, Harry Styles was spotted at the roulette wheel at the Pearl Room Casino in Perth. Just 18 at the time, the band member’s management wasn’t impressed by the Directioners sneaking off to the casino. 

Other fans of roulette include Wayne Rooney and Phillip Green. Spotted at casinos in Manchester, UK, Footballer Rooney is said to switch between blackjack and roulette. 

Billionaire business tycoon Phillip Green once won £2 million pounds in one night on the roulette wheel. This wasn’t his only big win, Green has been witnessed playing many high-stakes casino games over the years.
