Ever gotten a little overenthusiastic over a video game? If so, you're in good company: bombshell pop-singer Christina Aguilera reportedly suffered a hand injury after a bout of Wii Sports Tennis got "heated."

As an unnamed source told Showbiz Spy: "Christina loves her Wii as a fun way to do a little work out...on this one occasion she [was] in the middle of a particularly heated game of tennis and Christina came off a little worse for wear in a run-in with a table lamp. She has a bruised hand but is more upset that she lost the game!"

Other celebs wounded at the merciless hands of video games include Friends star Matthew Perry, supermodel Heidi Klum (who was left with a stiff neck and carpet burns after filming her now-infamous Guitar Hero commercial,) and Joel Zumaya of the Detroit Tigers, whose own Guitar Hero habit caused him to miss three games in 2006.
