Celebrities in Advertisements

Many companies use celebrities in their commercials to help promote their products. When people see their favorite celebrity using a certain product in an ad or commercial it makes them want that product even more. However some people might not realize that just because a celebrity is using the product in the commercial does not necessarily mean the product will actually work or be as effective as they say it will. Celebrities are only in the commercials to attract their fans to buy those certain products. Examples of this is the proactive commercials. The proactive commercial is always switching up celebrities from Katy Perry to Julianne Hough to  Jusin Beiber. Also alot of make up commercials use celebrities to promote their new products such as Beyonce, Drew Barrymore, and Queen Latifah. Just because all these celebrities are in the commercials does not mean they actually use the products or that the products are guaranteed to have the same effect on everyone else.

Super Bowl Advertisements

I was very disappointed in this years Super Bowl commercials. They were not as funny and entertaining as they have been in previous years.  Many people look forward to these commercials and have high expectations since so much money and effort goes into them. Alot of the companies concentrated on trying to make their commercial entertaining or more unique then the others and while doing this they did not advertise their product well. Many of the commercials were almost hard to tell what their actual product was that they were advertising. However with that said, some were not that bad and were entertaining.  My favorite Super Bowl commerical was the m&m one. I thought this commercial was very funny and also kept my attention. After watching it, it made me want to have a bag of m&ms. Another favorite of mine was the Dorito's commercial with the baby and grandma. In this commercial the baby and grandma are on one side while another younger kid is on the other side in a swing set. The younger kid is bragging how he has a bag of Doritos and the baby and grandma do not. The grandma ends up flinging the baby to the swing set, which he grabs the doritos and they both share the bag as the other kid looks on upset. I thought this was another funny commercial like the m&ms one. It also clearly advertised the product that they were trying to sell, which was Doritos.
