Mookie Betts Aims High With Dream Commercial Costar
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts named his ideal commercial costar, and it's a huge name.
Los Angeles Dodgers star Mookie Betts is aiming high with a dream commercial costar, according to a recent interview with Miguel A. Melendez of Men's Journal. The baseball player, who has recently launched his own line of gloves and appeared in Marvel's "Iron Man and His Awesome Friends," was asked who he would like to feature in a Corona beer commercial.
Betts didn't hesitate in his response, suggesting former President Barack Obama as the ideal companion for such a role. Melendez explained that Obama, in a relaxed state like he was in Vietnam during the "Parts Unknown" episode with Anthony Bourdain, would be the perfect fit for a Corona advertisement. However, Obama has not endorsed products, particularly alcohol, making such a partnership seem unlikely.
Nevertheless, Betts sees potential for the former president to participate in a different format, such as his podcast "On Base," where they could discuss sports and perhaps even offer some bowling tips.
