Top 20 Most Ridiculous Celebrity Marine Corps Ball Invites

There’s been a serge of celebrity invites for the Marine Corps ball these last few years. Most think celebrity invitations are ridiculous because the Marine Corps Ball is not about them. It’s about celebrating the birth of the Marine Corps and everything that comes with it: the hardships, sacrifices, honor and prestige of earning the title Marine. In fact, some commands have flat out said no celebrity invites allowed.

Some videos are better than others. Some have poor video production with the wind blowing, blurry lenses and more. Some guys come off as stalkers. You decide: which one is the best and worst?
