Orlando Jones – 7-Up
Orlando Jones has his 7-Up ad to thank for many of his memorable projects. The soda company hired the “MADtv” star in the late ’90s to feature as a spokesperson in many amusing adverts. One of his ads featured him in a T-shirt with Make 7 Up Yours printed on it. This piece of clothing became increasingly popular and 7-Up partnered with Spencer Gifts to sell it.
After 7-Up, he got his late-night talk show called “The Orlando Jones Show.” He made appearances in “Girlfriends,” “Everybody Hates Chris,” and “The Evidence.” Jones has also made his way on the big screen and starred in “Double Take” and “Evolution.”
