Here's a box of Larry the Cable Guy corn muffin mix I found at my local dollar store. I know how much Brad hates this guy in movies. Who ever thought that he would be the most perfect celebrity to promote their product? What could possibly be worse than this?

When you put serious thought into thinking how much money this man must possibly make to have worthy enough name recognition to appear on a box of muffins.
Also, isn't "product placement" more putting products in movies and TV shows? When I think of terrible product placement, I think more of how they worked the modern shoes into I, Robot or implying that a nerd like Peter Parker would use Bing as his search engine. This is more "Worst Celebrity Endorsements".
And the funny part is that all the Blue Collar guys are actually pretty smart guys outside of their acts. Jeff Foxworthy always seems like he really wants to go into other directions, but all his audience wants are more "You might be a Redneck" jokes. And as for Larry, well, this is what he was like before he created the Cableguy character:
Honestly, if I were to get famous buy turning myself into something like Larry the Cable Guy, and have to live my life as that character from then onward, I wonder if the sacks of money would be enough to keep me from eyeing a large bottle of pills longingly every night.
