Under the Influence with Terry O'Reilly

S7E09 - Celebrities: Living To Tell The Tales

This week, we explore the world of celebrities in advertising. We’ll tell the story of a super shy mega star at one of her very first gigs, how Alan Arkin defied all advertising norms and why an afternoon behind the mic makes Alec Baldwin sweat. Celebrities cost big money, have big opinions and make big demands. But if the commercial is good, their presence can be rocket fuel.  We know you want to listen to all the ads in this show.
