I’m usually good with this stuff, but for the life of me I can’t remember the name of the woman in Jason Alexander’s Visa commercial. (You know, movies, no cash, check card).
She looks kind of like Suzanna Hoffs from Bangles fame, but I doubt that’s who it is. I know I’ve seen her before, though. Any ideas?
Yeah, now that you mention it, I see that it is Kari Wuhr. Hence the “tip of my tongue” phenomenon. I guess it’s the straight-laced dress that caused the confusion. She’s usually wearing much tighter clothes.
I thought it was Brenda Bakke (or something like that). She was the chick in ‘Hot Shots’; the Charlie Sheen spoof of Rambo. I’m not sure what Kari Wuhr looks like though.
And I agree about the nose. It does look different. Maybe some Jennifer Grey syndrome going there, but I mean Jennifer Grey looks nothing like she used to - at least this girl looked familiar.
Not to change the topic, but I don’t understand that commercial. If Jason Alexander has his check card, shouldn’t he be able to bring his girlfriend to the movie? What good is this check card if it isn’t a widely-usable alternative for cash?
The commercial seems to be saying that the check card is useless; you need cash. Rather the opposite of the meaning intended, I would think.
Of course, I didn’t understand “Miracle on 34th Street,” either…
Beruang: As if the commercial wasn’t confusing enough, I do believe that when they ring through the tickets, there are TWO of them. Watch the commercial carefully to spot this.
Boy, are we dealing with the big issues now or what?
Are you educated, erudite and maybe a bit eccentric?

I quit watching MTV in about '83, so I don’t know her from Eve. I can say, in my completely unbiased, untainted opinion that it’s not so much that her nose changed, it’s that her upper lip is twice the size it was before.
I’m not up on MTV, but that picture of Kari Wurher is NOT the girl in that stupid Visa card commercial, nose job or not.
It looks like Paula Abdul to me. She’s had a few hits (the title I recall is “Opposites Attract”) and made a series of Cola commercials where she “appeared” with people like Groucho Marx and Louis Armstrong.
