Iggy Pop - Selling Out 101

Does anybody still have any respect for this chump. Definitely the reason I've thrown something at the TV in rage several times.

I never had any respect for that man,I always thought he was a bit of an oddball being honest :pac:

TWEEK1979

That's sickening man, seriously!

Tis the rock n'roll equivalent of smoking pole. Well suppose he needs the money for his next fix.

I have more of an issue of a man his age with no top on thinking he's still 19...

I dunno, he's in better shape than most guys who are in their prime now, lol.
But yeah, this is up there with Ray Parker Jr's 11850 ad in the terms of "should never have happened"

Hey brendansmith, if you're reading this thread... THIS is selling out.

Iggy's insurance not available to pop people

This is without doubt my favourite news story so far this year. It's materialised that Swiftcover, the car insurance company with that slightly scary Iggy Pop fronted TV ad campaign, won't insure musicians, because if they are injured in an accident their loss of future earnings claim might be too high. Which means that Iggy, who tells the viewing audience how much better his life is thanks to the convenience of a Swiftcover insurance policy, wouldn't actually get an insurance policy from the company if he actually used one of their convenient (or 'swift if you like') methods of application.

Ha ha, the ironing is delicious!

What demographic are they aiming for with these ads? People are getting desperate, it would seem.

After Ossie's long Big Brother and the likes of Kerrang, the establishment is gradually turning rock into it's own image.
