Advertising is everywhere in Japan but I thought I would write this small page to talk about the phenomenon of American celebrities in Japanese ads. By far the biggest celebrity here is Leonardo DiCapprio. He does commercials for a credit card and his face is plastered everywhere. Bruce Willis and Cameron Diaz also seem to have deals endorsing products. I think it is funny because the celebs can make some money without harming their credibility in the US. I found the ad below on a subway door, there is a little glare but I thought it came out pretty well for being a picture of a sticker on the subway.
