Terry Crews, the actor you probably know as the impossibly muscled pitchman for Old Spice, just got a new PC. And he wants you to know: He’s going to be streaming on Twitch.
Crews is just the latest in a slew of celebrities taking to the video game streaming site to hang out and interact with fans in real time. Music producer Deadmau5 has been on it for a while, and musician T-Pain started streaming just a few months ago.
Crews has appeared in more than 70 movies and TV shows over his 16-year career. His iconic sense of humor had turned him into something of a cult celebrity, evidenced by his 7 million-plus Facebook fans. He is perhaps best-known for his roles in the White Chicks movie, The Expendables series, and now his stint as officer Terry Jeffords in the show Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
At around midnight last night a tired Crews took to Facebook Live to show his fans his new PC, and get some troubleshooting advice while trying to install Windows—which ended up booting itself up without him having to do anything.

“This computer stuff is frustratingly happy and wonderful,” he says. Before showing off his rig and shouting out the guy that helped him build it (again). Towards the end of the four-and-a-half minute stream he starts his sign-off, saying “I’m going to join Twitch, I’m going to join Steam, I’m going to get on some games, and me and my son are going to beat you up on the computer.”
Crews didn’t say when he’d start streaming. But now that his PC is done and actually booting up fingers crossed it will be soon.
