So many celebrities are now into dominoes, e.g.
Ashton Kutcher, Bruce Willis, Charlize Theron, David Walliams, Demi Moore, Donna Karan, Erin O’connor, Eva Herzigova, Eva Longoria Parker, Gwen Stefani, James Franco, James Van Der Beek, Javier Bardem, Jemima Khan, Jennifer Aniston, Jeremy Piven, Jessica Alba, Josh Hartnett, Kate Hudson, Katie Holmes, Lucy Liu, Michelle Trachtenberg, Milla Jovovich, Natalie Imbruglia, Olivier Martinez, Penelope Cruz, Ridley Scott, Rumer Willis, Salma Hayek, Sharon Stone, Sienna Miller, Snoop Dogg, Stuart Townsend, Tamara Beckwith, Tom Cruise, Victoria Beckham, and Willie Nelson
to name a few, that two celebrities got together to create their own version of the game: Hollywood Domino.
The game, published by Hasbro, is the product of rules variations proposed after many game sessions at Salma Hayek’s house. Two of the regulars, Daya Fernandez and Inge Theron, took the rules and created a new game. The game is still essentially dominoes (Mexican Train), but themed around the film industry.
It was launched last February in Beverly Hills, and again this week in NYC. Another event is planned for LA in Feb, 2009. Proceeds from the launch events go to Charlize Theron’s Africa Outreach Project.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
When left with the ‘Admit One” Domino as the last piece in One’s hand, is it layed down to go out or does One have to hold on to it until someone else goes out?
Thank you
I believe that when you have the admit one tile, it dosn’t count as a tile. So if you are the first to go out and you have the admit one tile you simply tap the table with your last number tile and say last take and show both tiles at the same time.
Now I have a question to purpose, If someone can’t start their own film (lane) can they participate in the game, like help to close a double or add to other open films (make a cameo apperance)add to the red carpet etc.?
Podria por favor conseguirme las reglas del hollywood domino en español.
gracias
if you have the single star in your hand and you lay it down should you lay the same number down. If you do not have the same number can you just put it down just to get it out of your hand and just come back to it
