I will be the first to admit, like millions of you, that Beyonce Knowles is one of the most talented and beautiful women in show business today. She's also got to have more money than she knows what to do with, which makes me wonder why she is doing so many commercials lately. I think the worst - and most embarrassing - is probably her most lucrative; as spokeswoman for DirecTV.
The ad features Beyonce singing and dancing, which is obviously what she does best. She's wearing a skimpy gold dress, which is obviously what makes her look best. But the hard-sell of the "upgrade" message is just too over the top. She's no longer a hot, appealing spokesperson, but just another hard-sell saleswoman shoving something down our throats.
But most bothersome - how much did they have to pay her to put an "upgrade" piece of rapper bling in her mouth? Maybe it was included in the price. Regardless, it's sad.
