    Get ready for a steady dose of Vince Neal and Brett Michaels commercials next. Getting old means we get to watch people from our younger days humiliate themselves with a cash grab after their careers are over. This will get much worse.

    Actually, I've been irritated for quite a while by Matthew McConaughy in those Lincoln commercials.

    Kind of like Joe Montana and those Papa John commercials?

    Haha, poor JBJ. I heard the commercial before I saw it, and thought it was Jack Black singing.
    And I agree with Hedo, McConaughy is much more irritating.

    The crazy thing is his net worth is 300 million. I don't know what I would call this cause he hardly needs the money. He tried to buy the Buffalo Bills in 2014.

    I don't mind the 2nd Bon jovi commercial.

    The Lincoln commercials are ugly though. I especially dislike the one where he's telling his dogs they are going where he wants to go because he's driving and he has two legs. What a bastard!

    Dumb, annoying... but I've seen way worse. JBJ looks really weird.

    Because everybody offers their dogs sushi for dinner. I hate the one where we see him shaving.

    Depends if he's doing this as part of his rock star career or his acting career. But either way, no

    These comments are hilarious.

    Yes! on the shaving and getting ready thing.

    I don't believe you
    It can't be as bad as our nimble ads

    Ok, I guess the idea is having a celebrity in your ad helps sales? I can honestly say I have never made purchase based on a celebrity endorsement. Never.

    In the first version of the commercial, I was floored by how old JBJ looked. Either that or he had some work done that did not turn out well.

    He is making money.. Doesn't need to punch a clock.. I'd say it's far from pathetic.. I'd take the check they cut him

    ....and what the hell is with that Johnny Depp ad? Drives to the desert, digs a hole, puts his chains and bracelets in it, all while still wearing his eyeliner from that day's shoot of the next Pirate's movie. :dizzy:

    I don't like the shaving one either.

    I think what bothers me about the one with the dogs is that his dogs are his pets and therefore totally dependent on him and yet he's kinda using their powerlessness to puff himself up. That's what I find repulsive. He's not only being a bit of a bully but they already have no choice but to eat what he feeds 'em!

    And, who princess, you're sharp to notice the ridiculousness of taking the dogs out to any restaurant anyway!!!

    Argh!!!
