AceShowbiz - "American Ninja Warrior" aims high when it comes to dream celebrity guests. Sitting down for an interview with TV Insider, presenter Akbar Gbaja-Biamila issues a challenge to Tom Cruise when asked which stars would be perfect for the course.
"This is a direct challenge to you, Tom Cruise. I am challenging you to come out to 'American Ninja Warrior' and try the course," Akbar says, citing the stunts the actor performed in his "Mission: Impossible" movies as the reason he challenges the A-lister.
Co-presenter Matt Iseman, meanwhile, teases a possible appearance by "Arrow" star Stephen Amell. "He's talked to us, he wants to get on the course," he says. As for sideline reporter Kristine Leahy, she wants to see Lil Wayne's performance on the show as he has great abs. She also claims that "America's Got Talent" host Nick Cannon wants to come to the show.
