Grab life by the ball. At least that’s what Benji Madden of the band Good Charlotte did at the DVD release party for “Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story” at Hollywood’s Palladium Tuesday night.
Madden and cast members from “Dodgeball,” “American Pie” and “Napoleon Dynamite” teamed up to duck, dip and dive at a celebrity dodgeball tournament for the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
“I’m not afraid of the balls,” said Madden. “The more black clothes, the more tattoos, the more intimidation.”
Although Madden looked more like the hard rocker he is than an athlete, he was prepared to defeat the competition.
“I played baseball and peewee football growing up,” he said. And his winning strategy? “I’m going to have poor sportsmanship,” said the ever-so-honest Madden. “Offensive defense.”
The plan worked, as the boys of Good Charlotte did a good job at crushing Team All-American, which included “American Pie” co-stars Chris Klein and Alyson Hannigan.
