I’ve lived in the UK most of my life and now I can see it from afar. From dawn to dusk. You can’t escape them. They come at you with silly slogans, jaded characters designed to be irritatingly memorable, and my fist-clenching jingles.
So you can imagine my horror when the famous American star started making cameos, even Snoop-Dogg in action. Come on, Snoop! You’re already making a lot of money. Be dignified!
In any case, someone ask Who can remember the most embarrassing US celebrity cameos in UK commercials — here are the 10 best/worst.
1. Idris Elba – Everything
This person states that Idris Elba is in everything. Yes, Stringer Bell has appeared in some very bad ads all over UK TV. Everything from hotel peddlers to advertisements for the UK satellite Sky. He has to be careful not to overexpose himself so as not to lose credibility as a big actor.
2. Kevin Bacon – EE
Observers have pointed out that Kevin Bacon is guilty of appearing in a British commercial cameo. Worse, in one article, he dances down the street in Brittany Spears’ famous red spandex jumpsuit.
3. Snoop Dogg – Just Eat
“Hey Snoop,” writes a fan in reference to his Just Eat cameo. “Give him a day to shoot an ad. We’ll feed your appetite for life.” To be fair, Snoop makes bank on these commercials, so who is he? would you resent such an income?
4. Robbie Williams – Felix Catfood
The guy who signed one of the top 10 most lucrative record deals of all time is now singing in a cat food ad, and I think that’s okay. “Robbie Williams and Catfood [sic] It will definitely top the list,” adds one community member. I feel that the lack of physical appearance saves Mr. Williams from the top spot here.
5. George Clooney – Nespresso
Many would hesitate to suggest that Clooney’s coffee ad is embarrassing. George — really? I thought you were worth $700 million. Oh, someone told me he’s a co-owner of the brand. “He also seems to donate all the money he makes from advertising to charity,” said another fan. That’s right, I’ll take it back: George remains an absolute legend.
6. Burt Reynolds – Various
Bless his soul, but Bart was doing these British commercials long ago.i am oneAn individual said he didn’t realize it was Reynolds, and another suffered burns. “Your comment is kind of ironic if you saw it and didn’t realize it was Bart.”
7. John Lydon – I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter
This is a shame for hardcore Pistols fans. A contributor remarks on how much-loved and former British punk his-rocker Johnny Rotten is notorious for “shilling” butter-alternative spreads. It’s not punk, is it Johnny? Still, I love you.
8. Ed Sheeran – Heinz
It’s strange that a music artist worth $200 million would choose to sell ketchup. Heinz must be paying Sheeran a lot of money, but it’s just a disgrace that his recent cameo reminded him of his dream Heinz commercial.
9. Helena Bonham Carter – Sophorology
The British actress is known for playing dark roles, and her character choices have always kept pace with her persona. . Nothing detracts from an actor’s mystique more than dressing in the Ottoman Empire.
10. Ryan Reynolds – BT (formerly British Telecom)
Deadpool has a knack for witty viral advertising, but his campaign against British telecommunications behemoth BT has raised some concerns. “When Ryan Reynolds created his BT ad series, all I could think was, ‘Well, this is why my line rental is so expensive…'”
