In case you’ve been living under a rock, this is Lindsay Lohan’s lol-worthy
commercial for the trashtastic Italian clothing brand Fornarina:

“Woooow.”

As it turns out, celebrities from every list (A, B, C, D, and even Z) have
hawked goods in foreign countries for extra cash, and most of the time, those of
us living in North America never get to see some of these oh-so-entertaining
gems. Other times, celebs actually land deals meant for American and Canadian
eyes, but they don’t always get aired for very long. Thanks to YouTube, you can
now watch Emmy Rossum awkwardly dance to sell cafe lattes to the Japanese, see
Marilyn Monroe make Coca Cola sexy and charming, see Brad Pitt become a hick
(and call people faggots/talk about double penetration and money shots/mention
Anna Nicole Smith) to sell beer, and relive when Beyonce, Pink, and Britney
Spears all tried to ‘Rock You’ into buying Pepsi.

Heineken, Honda, Levi’s, Rolex, some German e-mail thing, Pringles, canned
coffee, Japanese jeans, credit cards, etc, but I chose this one because it’s so
damn random and obviously he’s just joking in it.
