"Here's Candice Bergen, taking out the trash!" Here's Candice Bergen, scooping up after the dog!" <BR/><BR/>It's an interesting question: whether celebrities have more value to us, psychologically, as an ideal to which we aspire, or a reminder that ordinary people can achieve greatness (sometimes, through sheer luck).Esri Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00912657945785764363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-1157927890256310082006-09-10T17:38:00.000-05:002006-09-10T17:38:00.000-05:00No, I wouldn't necessarily buy the detergent, but ...No, I wouldn't necessarily buy the detergent, but I'd sure keep the ad. :)Trish Milburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812010789617982102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-1157903003812515532006-09-10T10:43:00.000-05:002006-09-10T10:43:00.000-05:00Ooh, thanks for the tip, Diane!

Does anyone know?<BR/><BR/>And Trish - David Boreanaz, huh? I still remember him as Angel. So you wouldn't buy something (dish detergent, for example) if he was in the ad? I bet Diane would buy detergent for Gerry. :)Jennie Lucashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05391854333105140789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18101458.post-1157805929481483222006-09-09T07:45:00.000-05:002006-09-09T07:45:00.000-05:00Cover Shot is on TLC, though.

I always love a good pop culture post. :) I think shoppers are just too savvy to buy into the star hype when making purchases. Doesn't mean they don't still lap up info about favorite stars (goodness knows I'm all over info about David Boreanaz), but buying a product just because a star hawks it?

A model, a fashion consultant, make-up artist, hair stylist, and fashion photographer all perform their magic and the women really do look like cover models at the end!Diane Gastonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14770373530197339170noreply@blogger.com
