Microsoft: Saving Itself With Celebrities Galore?
This morning we learned that Microsoft had selected the $10 million spokesman to revive its uncool brand: Vintage Mac aficionado Jerry Seinfeld. The collective response could be summed up as, "Really, him?" But Seinfeld may be just be one small part of the Microsoft coolness project! Fishbowl LA is reporting that the company's ad wizard and diet book author Alex Bogusky is considering lots of other celebrities for the campaign to help convince you that Vista is a smart buy. The (real) list of those purportedly under consideration: Vagina-touting comedian Sarah Silverman!
Weed-burning singer Willie Nelson!
Motorcycle-riding person Travis Pastrana!
Laid-back actor of sorts Matthew McConaughey!
Hopeless politico Ralph Nader!
Mockery specialists Rob Cordrry and Stephen Colbert!
Deceased jokester Bernie Mac!
