It really is that simple for the genetically blessed – if you look great, you’ll get paid to do simple/easy/stupid things. The proof lies in this ‘making of’ for a commercial in Japan for Sega’s 15th anniversary of Puyo Puyo!. Japanese mega-model Yuri Ebihara has sold countless digital cameras for Fujifilm and shrimp fillet sandwiches (and they’re absolutely delicious) for McDonald’s, and recently she’s getting paid to push PSP and DS games.
While we realize the that ‘making of’ clip is edited down, it couldn’t have been much more complicated than it looks. She comes in, sprawls herself across a chair, plays a bit of Puyo Puyo! on the Nintendo DS, says a few lines, and walks out with a ton of flowers. I’m sure her fat paycheck was in the mail after that.
Gorgeous as she may be, she couldn’t even get a simple line (which translates to “I love Puyo Puyo!“) correct at first. That’s okay, she’s a looker – we’ll let it slide.
Hmm, I wonder if we could get her for a Destructoid commercial.
