Fakin’ It
Sure, we’ve already seen celebrities faking the products they use and selling out to advertisers. But, Oprah Winfrey? Surely we can trust her! But even Winfrey’s “favorite things” are a sham, as demonstrated here. In her post about the Microsoft Surface, Winfrey outs herself as her tweet is stamped with the “Twitter for iPad” tag.
It’s funniest when mistakes like these expose their celebrity posters to be pulling our leg. While we know it’s just a job, it can feel almost like a betrayal when a celebrity we admire praises a product that they themselves don’t even use. It’s like we can’t trust anyone anymore, these days!
