And I don't want to be a jerk.
What I did know, or what I felt pretty confident about, was having been in Hollywood and having been in show business, like, I could have imagined how this went, which is like, all of a sudden, the crypto exchanges where all these cryptos are actually traded...
And again, they're traded.
You're going on these weird places to like buy and sell these speculative things.
They're taking a cut of the action.
They're taking a little transaction fee.
They're making money hand over fist.
They got a ton of money and they want to keep marketing it.
And so I just imagined a scenario where insert crypto exchange, they go, they have a hundred million dollar marketing budget and they're going to the
three agencies that are left or whatever it is, and they're like, hey.
We have 10 million bucks.
Of a certain caliber actor, we will pay them $10 million.
So I get it.
It's perfect confluence of opportunity.
And there's nothing wrong with celebrities hawking consumer goods, hawk soap or cars or whatever.
Yeah, I made fun of Miranda because she did like a hair commercial.
There's nothing wrong with that.
I mean, the reason celebrities are hired is because they have a relationship to the audience and people trust them.
And if it sort of helps you separate your product, you know, there's a lot of different hairsprays you could have, but this one has Miranda Baccarat in it.
So, you know, buy it.
