For as long as there have been Super Bowl parties, there have been spouses disinterested in sports that somehow get dragged along. “Hey,” the rationalization goes, “at least you’ll get to see all the new Super Bowl commercials.”
As the Los Angeles Rams face the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, February 13, at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, those of us without six grand or so to buy a ticket on StubHub will be watching on CBS, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Et. It won’t just be great athletes like Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford keeping us engaged, but the finest minds in advertising serving up witty instant catchphrases or maybe bringing a tear to our eye with something poignant before the final “brought to you by Bank of America” tag. There will also be the best Super Bowl commercial of all, the one for which...

Jonathan Goldsmith, once known as "the most interesting man in the world" through his work as a brand ambassador for Dos Equis, has gotten the California Labor Commissioner to void a management agreement with Butch Klein and Jordan Lee, Inc.
The legal fight started when Klein's firm sued Goldsmith for breach of contract for failing to pay commissions after termination. According to the lawsuit, Goldsmith was making $1 million a year from his advertising work.
Goldsmith then filed a petition before the Labor Commission alleging that Jli had procured work for him as an unlicensed agent in contravention of ...

Jonathan Goldsmith has lived a life (almost) as interesting as the man he's best known for playing. The silver-bearded actor, 78, officially retired as The Most Interesting Man in the World this week after 10 years, with Dos Dos Equis releasing his final commercial. Though he's now consorted with presidents and movie stars, the actor's career began with a lie, when as a young man - then working as a garbage truck driver - he told the director of the classic Western TV show Gunsmoke that he could "ride horses like the wind." Except … he couldn't. "Kids that are brought up in...

What my followers on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ saw today: • What I want to know is, where do our World of Warcraft-playing politicians stand on this important issue? World of Warcraft cities hacked • He's the most interesting man in the galaxy! I don’t always wear a Red Shirt on Star Trek. But when I do, I survive the whole episode.

Consider for a moment the manly purr of Old Spice spokesman Isaiah Mustafa's "Hello, Ladies" salutation. It's seduced the country social media-style: 94 million views on YouTube, 630,0000 Facebook fans, and an estimated 1 billion aggregate impressions in just one week. But wait. It appears consumers may have been too distracted by his glorious swan dives and monocle smiles to remember the actual product he was hawking. Sales of Red Zone body wash have actually declined 7% according to a report by SymphonyIRI. (Update: A spokesman for Old Spice claims Brandweek took SymphonyIRI's stat out of context. Citing Nielsen figures, the rep says Os body wash sales have actually increased 11% in the last 12 months.) And the towel-clad and deep-voiced Mustafa may have not even contributed to Old Spice's overall sales growth, which Ad Age chalks up...
