Where is ellen feis now

She is different things to different people. Too much exposure would cause her star to quickly fade. Feiss is amused that people have T-shirts and coffee mugs decorated with her face, but avoids online newsgroups "because she's heard from friends there's some very weird stuff there," Frechette said.

Feiss also reveals how she landed the Apple advertisement by accident. She's a friend of Hamilton Morris, the son of documentary filmmaker Errol Morris, who directed the ads. The pair went to watch some ads being taped one day, and a couple of spots happened to be open. Both she and Hamilton were filmed, and their spots were chosen for the campaign.

Here's Hamilton's. The Feiss interview is being heavily promoted by the college paper, which has plastered the Brown campus with Feiss posters. I'm excited about it. I think people will get a kick out of it. Remember me. Rich beaarthursdrug wrote in ohnotheydidnt , - 01 - 13 Rich beaarthursdrug ohnotheydidnt - 01 - 13 Share Flag. We've all seen commercials on television. Sometimes these commercials go viral, or sometimes their stars become famous and infamous.

Here are just a few stars, and where they currently are today. Ellen Feiss In the early 's, Apple introduced an ad campaign featuring "Switchers", which were people who switched from Microsoft products to Apple. Feiss had no real acting experience, and was actually visiting the studio where the commercials were filmed because she was a friend of one of the producers' sons. Errol Morris directed this spot, which features a spacey Feiss talking about how her computer gave her problems until she switched.

Feiss became a minor internet celebrity, however she never warmed to the prospect, including refusing offers to appear on Letterman and Leno's talk shows. Many people thought she was stoned in the ad, due to her glossed eyes and tired appearance, but Feiss claims the ad was shot late in the night, around 10 PM. I was on Benedryl, my allergy medication, so I was really out of it anyway.

But no one believes me. People would come up to me and say really rude things. Mobile menu toggle. Photo: Apple. Number of comments on this post Leave a comment.
