I can just hear the negotiation on this one:
"Okay. As long as it's voiceover only, and at no point does she have to imply - in any way - that she actually eats the stuff..."
I'd file this under "Lo How the Mighty Have Fallen," but actually Miss. B. has always been remarkably straightforward that she's a working actress with bills to pay. The Dakota doesn't come cheap, kiddies...
Oh, dear.
ReplyDeleteIf this were from, say, 1982, I'd understand it better. But does the average Arby's-goer today even know who the hell La Bacall is, let alone why it's supposed to be ironic and funny that she's hawking their $.99 cent giveaways?
she did a voiceover for fancy feast cat food a while back.it almost made me go buy some...
ReplyDeleteExactly my thoughts, tjb.
ReplyDeleteI mean really...who's even
seen such a thing as a gold rimmed "tulip tumbler" since at least '82!?
oh my goodness...there is a saying for this "oh, how the mighty have fallen."
ReplyDeleteShe does have such a nice voice though.
