Where To Watch
Can you recognize these celebrities in old television commercials?
Before they were stars, they were selling burgers, cereal and video games.
Celebrities — they're just like us! When they're not landing roles in television shows or recording pop hits, they're making extra money by appearing in commercials.
Wait, that's not like us at all. We have never acted in a TV ad.
For many actors, commercials are a necessary first step to stardom. For others, they are a way to stay in the spotlight.
The following famous faces come from TV commercials of the 1960s, '70s, '80s and '90s. See if you can recognize them all!

Why do sites have the likes of a child molester like Michael Jackson on their quizzes/sites? If he had not killed himself with drugs he would have eventually been convicted by a trial from people with brains and morals. not cool -put children first!
He did NOT overdose on drugs and he was found NOT guilty of the charge. Watch the news much, do ya?
Come on MeTV, get it straight. You said there were commercials BEFORE they were stars, but Eve Plumb did the Burger Chef commercial AFTER she became a star on The Brady Bunch.
Missed 2 and 7. Looking again, I don't see how.
Missed # 3, never watched it.
11 out of 11. The look of insanity in his eyes was the giveaway in #7.
