What movie stars get paid to sell you stuff

In this commerercial for Lavazza coffee – Julia Roberts was reportedly paid 1,2 million Euros. That’s over R11 million for a 45 second ad in which she doesn’t utter a word. She just sips coffee and smiles like a fembot.
Apparently Julia is very selective of the products that she appears in ads for. And we’re sure the R11 million may have helped considerably with that selection process. But hey… now you know.

Julia Roberts is overrated and it’s absolutely disgusting that she was paid such a huge amount of money for doing nothing… Hahaha it’s so ridiculous it’s actually laughable.

Is there a bit of a coffee war going on? I’d like to know what George Clooney got paid for those Nespresso ads that are flighting at the moment. They knock spots off this one.
