CELEBRITIES & GOSSIP
by jim on October 13, 2006

Once in a while a TV commercial comes along that truly amuses, but for the most part we all hate them, and they get thrown at us for as much as 5 minutes at a time.
The commercials that really piss me off are the ones featuring celebrities pimping products. My feeling is that it costs a fortune to hire them and it only adds to the price of the product.
Besides, it would be nice if people like Catherine Zeta Jones would step aside, and let another chick have a shot at getting noticed, same for Travolta's old lady, Kelly Preston.
It's also a well known and highly publicized fact that celebrities have very little impact on consumer's buying habits yet Madison Avenue keeps hiring them.
I searched far and wide for a picture appropriate to this subject but couldn't find one that was just right, so I put up the one of alicia silverstone, who I guess is selling underwear. That doesn't bother me too much.
Well commercials are here to stay and one can only hope that they don't proliferate further into the realm of cable TV.
You can vent by casting your vote here for your choice as the TV commercial you feel is currently the most obnoxious.
