Matt Damon Makes A Convincing First Lady In New Awareness Ad
Posted by Seth at 2:25 AM on August 22, 2008
Continuing with our ongoing Defamer Decides 2008 political coverage (splashy logo forthcoming just as soon as we figure out how to work out another Photoshop 30-day free trial), we now bring you this new ONE campaign TV spot featuring Hollywood's most likable superstar and enviable nape-haver Matt Damon. The ad features the pedostache-free actor star soberly addressing the camera about their poverty-combating efforts. Fans should be warned, however, that the strange voices that soon emerge from Damon's lips are not the result of any multiple-personality disorders, secret hormone treatments, or Satanic possessions.
Rather, Damon was transformed through the magic of A/V editing into the comely mouthpiece for a wide variety of American voices, "among them Michelle Obama, Cindy McCain and Mayor Bloomberg." It's an effective gimmick, if a little unfair to John McCain, who now can't help but hide his disappointment every time he rolls over in bed to the sound of his wife's voice, only to find a smiling Cindy instead of that dreamycakes actor from the Bourne movies.

Oh, he looks good again. Hurray!
Although, how obvious is it that he's reading a cue card? You're in movies, but you can't remember a 30 second spot? Really?

Holy crap! You should give someone a warning before posting a clip like this. I just sprayed my monitor with coffee.

You know Affleck would have just fucked it up anyway.

Why must you test my loyalty like this? I was shaken, but not stirred. Fine, tinker with his voice if you must, but never... and I do mean never... mess with that face.
