You've no doubt seen the ad about 20 times by now -- the adult son takes his dad on a whirlwind tour of Norway as a birthday gift, only to find out they're actually . . . (duh, duh, duhhhhhhhh) Swedish.
I actually enjoy this commercial because of the man candy that is the son. And I remember someone in the INtake office (a certain redhead, I seem to recall) mentioning a crush on the cute goofy girl who modeled Snorg tees in all those online ads.
So I'm curious, anyone else have non-mainstream crushes? Totally innocent, of course. Just random folks, like the Verizon guy (my friend thinks he's kinda cute in a dorky way) or the girl who's feeling "not so fresh," who haven't made it big yet.
OK, I had written a whole thing spilling all of my ugly dude quasi-lebrity crushes, but then I felt dorky and erased it.
But the Verizon guy? Absolutely. No questions asked. He could eat crackers WITH jam and not get kicked out of bed.
Just about any woman who appears in those American Apparel ads on the back of VICE magazine.

I want to see the un-edited list!
The Orbit gum woman is pretty alright.
I haven't had a commercial crush since David Naughton's "I'm a pepper, he's a pepper, she's a pepper, we're all peppers, wouldn't ya like to be a pepper, too"! Now, guess my age! LOL
I've got a new one. The guy in the match.com ads that are currently all over Myspace.
Yum yum.
Confession: The Mercury Girl (Jill Wagner) is not ugly at all.
I dig that "Where's the Beef" lady.

I like this girl who does pregnancy test commercials, I forget which one but shes a brunette and shes been in a few. Erin Esurance would be pretty hot too if she was real. Don't get me wrong I'm not in to cartoons or anything. I agree about the Mercury girl too. Even if she does try to get me buy an American made POS.
The SpeedTV spokes girl... varoom!
