Prior to reading this story in Crain's, we never made the connection that Jackie Chan was the George Foreman of the eastern hemisphere. According to Crain's, Chan will begin endorsing and selling Foreman grills (How may do you have in your closet and plan on regifting?) in Asia.
However, the more we thought about it, the more it made sense. Foreman had his grill, Chan had one fun Nintendo game. Foreman peddles household cleaners, Chan's on Saturday mornings in his own cartoon. Both men are musicians at heart, having released albums of their own (Chan discography, "Inspirations by Foreman). We're sure that if we tried, we could play this game all day.
In any case, Chan's been one of our favorite movie stars for some time. We wish him the best of luck in his new role as a grill salesman and we're confident that he'll have no problem peddling products like this to the Asian market.

Stroger Makes Hollywood Play


i gotta say, for a product with such ridiculous hype, you can't beat the george foreman grill. i heard about that thing for years and thought, "yeah yeah, shut your face about this crap product, blah blah." but once i got one, i will never look the same way at skinless boneless chicken breast again.
i don't cook. i really don't. but lawry's seasoned, pepper, and jane's Krazy mixed up salt on some chicken (where can i FIND this stuff?), 7 minutes on the foreman, and you've got some of the juiciest delish chicken ever. seriously.
make some easy ass side dish (salad, corn, rice) and it actually starts to look like a real dinner. and for those of you who actually cook, shut up. some of us have to make do with what meager life skills we have.
