who's the chick in the Visa commericial?

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?

The girl is Kari Wuhr. She was on MTV’s remote control and Sliders.

She also has a new nose.

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.

Kari Wuhrer: New nose or not? You be the judge.

Gawk all you want at this site or her official site, you lecherous bottom feders.


If I wanted smoke blown up my ass, I’d be at home with a pack of cigarettes and a short length of hose.

Yep - that’s her.

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.

Wow! She changed more than her nose! She looked like a GUY in the top photo!

No no, Soup, she’s the one on the right

I think she looks better in the first picture.

The second one looks like some crazy mutant with a nose made of play dough that someone pinched too mcuh.

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’m still wondering whose the girl in the commercial where you only see her clothes(she’s invisible)

So, you guys are the one’s standing in front of the automatic MetroCard readers in the NYC Subway system,weeping???
GEDDOUDALINE !!!

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’ve met both. Kari has nothing on Eve

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.
