So what do they do? Run out and hire more celebrities for this one-shot deal. You'd think they'd bite the bullet and hire a regular garden variety voiceoverist. Hey, I'm in no danger of ever winning an Oscar (although I do play a character named Oscar in a new video game). If they'd hired me as their spokesman in the first place, they wouldn't be in this predicament.
