On television, there are numerous amounts of commercials that contain celebrities endorsing products that he or she claim to use. One commercial in particular that comes mind first is the Aveeno commercial with Jennifer Aniston (O’Keefe, 2013). She has been doing the Aveeno commercials for years now, and I still have a hard time believing she actually uses a drug store product and that the product actually works (O’Keefe, 2013). Aniston is usually promoting a face cream that gets rid of aging spots, but it doesn’t seem like she has any aging spots to begin with (O’Keefe, 2013). Also, with the amount of money she has I think she would go for a more expensive product or see a professional to help her get rid of any beauty issues. It’s obvious
Companies are very selective when choosing a celebrity to endorse their product because they know the person is a great candidate for them to sell their product to the consumers. Before the company signs on the celebrities to endorse their brands, the companies need to make sure that these celebrities meet three basic qualifications.
We are sometimes manipulated into buying these products because it will work wonders or make us feel good about ourselves, well I could say that some products are good heck even amazing. However, there are those that are just plain wrong that are so egger to sell the product just to make profit off of us, not caring whether we are content with how it works. Have you ever wondered why the advertisements just keep repeating sometimes well it’s like they are just planting it in your head about this product that they are trying to sell you and that you must have according to the advertisers. According to writer Sienna Kossman she states how advertisers operate and how they get the consumers to buy the product she say that the way they get them
People think “oh that product looks amazing, I want it” just because celebrities are in the advertisement, and it looks more credible. Consumers get influenced into buying products when the advertisement is amusing. Although that may be the case, it is up to the consumer to be responsible with what he/she is buying. Cover Girl’s Plumping Mascara commercial featuring Katy Perry does not get every girl persuade to buy it. Even though the commercial is great and looks like the product works really well, does not mean every person who sees the advertisement feels pressured into buying the product. Several men and women believe it is insulting to use celebrity advertisement to promote products and others think it is the buyer who has the responsibility of not getting suckered into buying everything he/she sees. Also advertisment is a way to promote products, celebrities should be allowed in
I too have seen this commercial for a few years now on TV. I will admit that I have been curious on trying this product from time to time. Even though I am only in my thirties, no one wants to look old. I think this commercial is smart on using one of the most recognizable super model “Cindy Crawford”. They show a picture of her at 28 and now at 48, with the difference of 20 years there is not much of a difference, she looks great. I’m sure there is puffery in this commercial or photo touch ups, and they probably leave out the most important part by saying that Cindy exercises regularly and eats healthy on a daily base. Also, this Dr.Sebagh that invented this product has an accent and a look that makes you feel like “Wow, he must be really
Burt’s Bees is known for its amazingly healing lip balm, however, it wasn’t always this way. When Burt’s Bees was first established by Roxanne Quimby and Burt Shavitz it was a candle company. Since then Burt’s Bees has flourished and became a worldwide brand, including a multitude of health and beauty products. To further understand the advertisement and everything that went into and still goes into Burt’s Bees we first need to look at the founders and how the brand was created. This is because to this day the advertisement is linked to the founders of the brand and what kind of people they are reflecting onto the brand they have established.

Some people believe that the company has the right to do what they want, others feel there should be regulations on these types of products. The false advertising will mislead the consumer if they are not educated. This is because the celebrity endorsing the product
Use of celebrities in advertising is no new concept, companies have used celebrities to sell everything from cars, to moisturizer. Celebrities, due to our consumerist and media based society, are the ideal salespeople. (Wright, 2015) PETA’s campaign team understands that celebrity can help sell products and put a spin on that marketing technique by using celebrity endorsement in order to sell their ideals, and a vegetarian/vegan lifestyle. Celebrity endorsement can help companies and non-profit organizations such as PETA to gain public recognition, and to make a strong impression on viewers and consumers, so that they will remember the product, or in PETA’s case, consumers will remember the ideals and advocacy that the organization is promoting. (Fleck, Korchia, & Le Roy, 2012) It’s also apparent that a celebrities attractiveness has something to do with it as well. Fleck, Korchia, and Le Roy also state that “A celebrity spokesperson's physical attractiveness has a positive impact on brand recall, attitude toward the brand and purchasing intent”
“This kind of marketing is misleading and insults the intelligence of the audience (Jozui).” Jozui is explaining that using a celebrity as an endorser provides automatic approval and because of that doesn’t provide much evidence of how effective the product is. However, the consumer should have the ability and knowledge to do research on the product. ¨Am I going to buy the newest SUV because an attractive talk show host gets paid to…(Jozui).¨ Just because somebody is paid to pretend to like a product does not automatically give the product approval. Not everybody would agree with the right to advertise freely however, companies have every right to do

The CoverGirl commercial includes Taylor Swift, a famous singer-songwriter wearing the foundation and she promotes the newly formulated version of the foundation. The Revlon advertisement involves Emma Stone, a well-known actress advocating a brand-new, lightweight foundation by discussing her flaws and demonstrating how the foundation conceals her imperfections. The commercials effectively use pathos, ethos, and logos to convince the viewers into purchasing their new foundations.
In the film ‘Her’, directed by Spike Jonze, the main protagonist,Theodore Twombly conveys the idea of alienation via technology and its possible effects, due to his depression via his divorce and his easy going relationship with an artificial intelligence operating system named Samantha. The idea of alienation and technology and its possible effects on human relationships is conveyed via the quote, “Sometimes I think I have felt everything I'm ever gonna feel. And from here on out, I'm not gonna feel anything new.
