Help Me Win A Bet: Coca-Cola Commercial Question

[becka]

Has anyone seen the Coca-Cola ad where a woman walks into a diner (or someplace like that) and guzzles a Coke and then burps afterward?

I said that was Penelope Cruz and DH disagrees...who is correct?

I thought it was Penelope Cruz too.

Coke hires celebrities for commercials

In an effort to outdo Pepsi, which uses pop stars in their ads, Coke has hired film stars to promote their product. The spots are designed to show celebrities in real life situations. In one, Penelopé Cruz drinks down a coke and then lets out a burp. Another shows husband and wife David Arquette and Courtney Cox at home. Cox asks Arquette if he'd like a coke, but finds there's only one in the fridge. He says, "Yes," so she fills a glass with ice, then pours a tiny amount of coke over it, saving the rest for herself. The slogan for the ad campaign is "Coca-Cola Real," a variation of their long-time slogan "Coca-Cola: The Real Thing."

I wonder if Coke sales are up because Penelope Cruz belched in a commercial. Somehow, it just doesn't make me want to run out and buy a coke.

People get paid to burp in a soda comercial

What is the spoksperson fro Bush's Baked Beans gonna do

Ya know - to me it just didn't sound like her burping... it sounds like a burp stunt double. I'd like to know if it actually is her burp or if it's a dubbed burp. Or maybe I care too much.

I saw a piece on this on Accsess Hollywood, it is Cruz and yes that is her burping.

Hey -- you asked!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Who is Penelope Cruz??

 

[coqui]

Tom Cruise's Significant other.

She was in Captain Corelli's Mandolin and a couple other movies (which escape me at the time)

It was her.

I find it funny that she could drink 20 oz of Coke that quickly (I know she didn't - you can tell by how she smiles)

On the plus side at least she doesn't look as anorexic as she normally does in this commercial.

Yes it was Penelope Cruz. I also don't think it looks like her drinking the soda. More like a computer image, or maybe there is a tube behind her neck. I have never really liked her very much as an actress. To answer you Dan, yes she was in Capt. Corelli's Mandolin like Coqui said. She was also in Vanilla Sky with Tom Cruise (dumb, dumb, movie) and she was in the original spanish version of that same movie. She was in some movie where she left her husband and came to America where she got her own cooking show on TV, I think it was called Woman on Top or something like that. I like the coke commercial with Courtney Cox and David Arquette much better.

She is adorable, I think. I had no idea that was her. She looks so young. I saw about 45 minutes of Captain Corelli's Mandolin, declared it the single worst movie I have ever watched 45 minutes of, and that is all I have ever seen her in.

Not crazy about the commercial, though - I'm not a fan of Coke and it sort of made me ill thinking about drinking all that Coke so fast.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Thanks for the info. No wonder I don't know her, LOL.

 

[Fire14]

I haven't seen the commerial but I drink enough coke to make any one go nuts.

 

[Poohbear123]

I am SO glad I drink Pepsi!

 

[Jenn Lynn]

I thought she looked a lot better wearing "normal" clothes than when she is all dressed up.

The Courtney Cox-David Arquette is cute!

 

[disgirl1234]

I haven't seen the commercial which is probably for the best. I'm not a fan of hers at all. Now the Courtney Cox/ David Arquette commercial is funny.

 

[msdznyduck]

I think if she (or anyone) drank that much Coke that fast more than that little burp would come out LOL
