Did you hear? Last night was the Super Bowl! And if you’re reading this website, odds are you couldn’t care less about Chiefs versus Eagles and don’t know a Mahones from a Hurts. But what you do know is that the Super Bowl means that there are a lot of companies willing to pay an exorbitant amount of money to get A-list stars to hock their wares in new ads. And this year was no different.

We already wrote about the Adam Driver (and his multiples) commercial for Squarespace, but now we got the full version. In addition, there was Pepsi coming strong with new ads featuring Ben Stiller and Steve Martin, both of whom are trying to convince you that some special Pepsi is really tasty… or are they just acting? Then there’s Ben Affleck giving real people Dunkin Donuts, which was spoiled by the fact that real people were flooding social media telling folks how Ben Affleck was working the Dunkin drive-thru.
As for some of the other star-filled commercials, there’s Alicia Silverstone bringing back her Cher character from “Clueless” to help promote online shopping, which is kinda cute and perhaps the most organic of the commercials. Then we have T-Mobile scoring John Travolta (along with regular pitch men, Zach Braff and Donald Faison) singing his “Grease” songs while promoting home internet, as well as the cell company landing Bradley Cooper (and his mom) to just riff off each other in a series of bloopers that hardly counts as any sort of ad.
And finally, there’s Hellman’s enlisting the help of Jon Hamm and Brie Larson (Hamm and Brie, get it?) to promote mayonnaise alongside Pete Davidson. Funny enough, Davidson didn’t have sex with Hamm or Larson, which would have been his go-to move. Instead, he just ate them.
You can watch all of those ads below:
