Catherine Zeta-Jones loves T-Mobile
AdWeek has put together a list of the top ten celebrity endorsement deals, with Catherine Zeta Jones topping the list at $20 million from T-Mobile. The complete list is:
1. Catherine Zeta-Jones, T-Mobile: $20 million
2. Angelina Jolie, St. John: $12+ million
3. Nicole Kidman, Chanel No. 5: $12 million
4. Jessica Simpson, Guthy-Renker: $7.5 million
5. Gwyneth Paltrow, Estee Lauder: $6+ million
6. Charlize Theron, Dior: $6 million
7. Julia Roberts, Gianfranco Ferre: $5 million
8. Brad Pitt, Heineken: $4 million
9. Scarlett Johansson, L'Oreal: $4 million
10. Penelope Cruz, L'Oreal: $4 million
I'm just glad these sons of bitches can make more money talking about a cell phone plan for 30 seconds than I'll ever make in my entire life.

that's just sick

Brad Pitt? Heineken? I am sure I would have remembered seeing that one.

Here's a link to the Brad-Heineken commercial if anyone is interested:

Well, Catherine Zeta-Jones needs all the money she can get. She's funneling most of it into some serious R and D for when Michael starts pissing himself, looking like a stroke victim, and begins suffering from impotence. Oh, wait. That's now. Well, then, BITCH pony up!!!!!! Mama needs a new car.

Hmm. I've only see the T-Mobile ads on tv. I'm assuming the rest are either print ads or are shown in the European or Asian markets.
7. Posted by jkough on April 25, 2006 08:04 AM
If that ad cost Heineken 4 mil on Brad's paycheck alone, they got ripped. I'd've done it for 3 mil :)

Have you ever noticed in the T-Mobile ads that the normal people aren't even in the same room as CZJ when these ads are filmed? You can tell she films them on her own & then they add the regular folk and blend the two together in post production. God forbid she is touched by a peasant who is only making $25 for their part in the ad! "Michael, I think one of them looked at me and it made me feel ugly inside!!"

#8: I believe she stipulated in her contract that the 'normal' people must stay at least four feet away from her. But when has a celebrity ever really been demanding like that? Oh, wait..

Del Taco once gave me five dollars to not tell anyone about the dirty condom I found in my burrito, which was pretty much the price of the burrito. I'm surprised my free burrito endorsement didn't make it in the top ten - being that I'm incredibly hot and famous.

Ugh! She bugs me. Congrats on the marriage to ol' wrinkle ass. I'd spend all of that $20 million to get that image out of my head.
12. Posted by Jacq on April 25, 2006 10:14 AM
For anyone who cares, the Este in Estee Lauder is spelled incorrectly as is Gianfranco Ferre. But, we can spell Heineken dead-on. God I love this place.
13. Posted by PapaHotNuts on April 25, 2006 10:23 AM
Other celebrity endorsements:
Britney Spears, Natural Light: $200 per month, free weekly keg
Michael Jackson, Gap for Kids: One young small Latino boy per day

Please help me out with more. Too stupid this morning to think.

Good god, that is some money.
I want to endorse T-Mobile. I'll even endorse something I completely hate for $20M.

Gwenyth Paltrow for Estee Lauder?! I can't see her endorsing cologne, she looks like she smells like Boiled Cabbage.
I will defend the Zeta Jones on this one...All the other celebs I have never seen their ads, but her ads at least are running all the time.
27. Posted by oshkoshb-goshdammgosh on April 25, 2006 11:48 AM
I must say it puts me at "Eaze" to know the good people at "Anal Eaze Lubricants" have got my back in case Papa Hot Nuts comes to Monroe with butthole on his mind and a song in his heart.

Do they even use these products? NO, it's for the us peons to idolize this shit because their name is attached to it...for like 30 seconds!

Edna's on the brit page!

Anyone who has T-mobile as a provider is a dumbass. What kind of company spends $20 million dollars to have the face and voice of a greedy, tacky biatch married to a wrinkled ass for his money?? What kind of company wants a litigious and shallow and aging actress to represent them? I can only imagine how their customer service is since they spend all their money on Catherine Skank-Jones.
32. Posted by UNWASHEDMASSES on April 25, 2006 12:15 PM
Used to think Zeta-Jones was hot, but the thought of her banging a guy a year older than her father kinda does it for me. The 20 mil is more action than Michael "Gray Pubes" Douglas can currently provide. As far a celebrity endorsements, how about Katie Holmes and Cameron Diaz as "beards" spokeswomen? Paris Hilton maybe have her own celebrity line of Valtrex? The Britney Spears Invisible Car Seat?
33. Posted by TaiTai on April 25, 2006 12:37 PM
How about Chris Martin/Coldplay: Sominex
34. Posted by Mr Furious on April 25, 2006 12:42 PM
Heineken is not getting their money's worth if no one knows the Brad Pitt ad exists...
35. Posted by MeganHarris on April 25, 2006 01:42 PM
Where's Paris? Doesn't she make around 4 mil for her dumb fragrance or somthing?
36. Posted by Italian Stallion on April 25, 2006 01:57 PM
MeganHarris no likey Paris Fragrance, MeganHarris really likey Paris voice in "screwed" though, which make me no likey MeganHarris.......
37. Posted by oshkoshb-goshdammgosh on April 25, 2006 02:28 PM
They're coming out with a MeganHarris fragrance. Word on the street is it smells like seared flesh and teen angst.

Chris Martin's has added a new client

Britney Spears, Cheetos: $oh, millions
40. Posted by andrewthezeppo on April 25, 2006 02:56 PM
I especially love that Catherine Zeta Jones isn't even on set with the others in the comercials. She films her stuff on bluescreen and they super-impose the other in lol...it's why she always looks too big or too small compared to the others.
41. Posted by Pearly on April 25, 2006 03:10 PM
Most of the ads listed are made in and played in Japan. The stars agree to do these ads because they won't be shown here and make them look like the seel outs they are (aside from CZJ who is 70, actually older than MD but he just won't drink of her blood..smart guy.)

Thanks, cat, but that picture of the fucking blue dog will only make me feel better if it's made out of vicodin. Is it?
Seriously, is it?

And to think, the people who appear in these commercials with the stars only make good money if the commercial airs a lot, and they probably have to work other jobs. Suckers. haha. Oh wait, I'm one of them too. Shit.
