Oscar Winners Featured in Commercials

N3. Whoopi Goldberg

The actress, comedienne, singer-songwriter made her film debut in the avant-garde ensemble from Citizen: I’m Not Losing My Mind, I’m Giving it Away from 1982.

But the role that made her famous was playing Celie, a mistreated black woman in the Deep South in the period drama film The Color Purple.

This commercial is kind of too much for many people, but we can’t argue with her belief in the product.

She was actually advertising Poise Pads for light bladder leakage.

In a series of print and TV ads Goldberg claimed to be ‘one in the three’ women who suffer from this ailment.

She also appeared dressed as Cleopatra, Mona Lisa, a fairytale Princess and Joan of Arc.

NEXT: #2. Marlon Brando
