It’s been no secret that Kyra Sedgwick and hubby Kevin Bacon lost all their savings in the Berni Madoff hedge fund cluster f**k. So now we’re seeing the stoic resolve of the television and movie star, with Sedgwick resorting to the schilling of products… in this case Tropicana Orange Juice. It’s so refreshing to see a celebrity willing to do anything it takes to help pull themselves up by their own bootstraps and not rely on others to help them right their financial situation (Ed McMahon). I know it’s tough for Kyra to do these ads. Most celebrities won’t do product advertisements in the US. Brad Pitt has done several cell phone ads for the Japanese market.
Even stranger than Kyra Sedgwick taking part in a stateside advertising campaign is the fact that the Tropicana package, that appears in the ad, is the “new and improved” package and logo that Tropicana spent a million dollars to develop but have alread scrapped (returning to the old logo of an orange with a straw in it).
