THE SPOTs
Three humorous :60s—"Alice Cooper," "Randy Savage" and "Anna Nicole Smith"—feature the celebrities interviewing for a 21st Century Insurance customer service position. When they are told that they’d have to work mornings, be friendly and answer all of their customers’ questions, the spots cut to footage of the star’s "real" jobs: Cooper is shown passed out in his bed after a long night, while a cleaning lady vacuums his hotel room; Savage gets into an altercation with a confrontational elderly woman; and Smith has "no comment" to all questions posed to her by reporters.
