Yesterday on American Idol Paul McDonald sang Smokey Robinson’s Track of My Tears and on Jimmy Kimmel Live they pointed out he might have sang a lyric wrong. When Smokey Sings (wait that’s another song) the song he sings, “I’m masquerading”, but it sounds like when McDonald did it he sang, “I’m masturbating.” You listen to it and be the judge. I am agreeing with JKL and going with masturbating which gives a whole new meaning to Track of My Tears…
BTW am I the only who thinks he looks like a member of the Bee Gees?
For some reason the first McDonalds ad was on the front of page of YouTube, so I had to check it out. What I saw from the ad that made its debut on June 27, 1962 shocked me. Seriously it is amazing that the fast food restaurant is as huge as it is after that ad. I even think that that version of Ronald McDonald is scarier than the newest version of the Burger King King and I never that would be possible.
Before Andrew McCarthy was working for a department store in Mannequin, he was working for Pepsi for Burger King. He looks as cute now as he did when he was 21 in that 1983 commercial.
Before Morgan Freeman was known for his voice, he was known for saying ahhhh for McDonalds. Can’t say I blame him for being embarrassed about that 1974 commercial he did when he was 36.
Before Sarah Michelle Gellar was singing (badly) on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, she was doing it for Burger King. How awwwdorable was the 4 year old actress wishing us a Merry little Christmas back in 1982!
And as she mentioned she was joined by a 19 year old Elisabeth Shue and 21 year old Lea Thompson before they were Footloose and had All the Right Movies!
