Dr. Pepper Commercial

Not sure if it's been covered here, but does anyone else think the Diet Dr. Pepper commerical is making fun of Prince?

I think the makers of Dr. Pepper are more interested in selling their product and making money.

Someone mentioned to me that the one imitating Prince is that dude, Justin, from the 1st season of American Idol. Remember him?

It just seems like a really weird mix of Steven Tyler and Prince. Hard to tell which one it's MORE based on...

Maybe eye do, just not like eye did before pimp2

Stupid commercial, yes, but it has nothing to do with Prince.

This was in a thread a few months ago. It shows Justin Guarini who looks a bit like Prince singing about the "Sweet one". Guarini who is Black and Italian looks like a cross between Prince and Jack Sparrow in the ad with a dash of Steven Tyler thrown in.

.

Saying that, I think its more a Steven Tyler rip off.

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name
