Wilmer Valderrama Goes Cheap In His New Music Video
Did you know Wilmer Valderrama was putting out an album? Me either. Apparently he is though and is now casting a music video. Umm, first of all Wilmer, I think you should get a casting agent who actually knows how to spell your name. That is a good first step. The second step is that if you are going to have someone work for 10 hours in a day and give them lines and make them a part of the video, perhaps you should dig out some money from that fat That 70's Show wallet and pay them more than a $100. Yes, I know it is $10hr., but Wilmer probably spends more than $100 on condoms everyday. Don't be cheap Wilmer. Oh, and whoever gets the role of Daniella, I would think that Wilmer will probably want to spend some one on one time with you to make sure you have good chemistry.

You know, this guy is loaded as he is also the voice for Handy Manny. I'm quite embarrassed for him on so many different levels of his cheapness.
ReplyDeleteok, all I have to say is I do not believe for a second he is singing on this album. I have to watch Handy Manny on a regular basis and he "sings" on it and it is barely tolerable. And that ISN'T because it is a childrens cartoon, he just plain sucks! So, whatever the reason he is doing this now, I can only imagine that investing more than 25cents in a video is a waste of money. Unless your going for a John Waters type camp thing, then go for it. :)
ReplyDelete*end horror induced rant*
I want to talk about how pathetic this all is, but I can't stop laughing at "Platino".
ReplyDeleteBigMama: I was thinking camp too, like a ghetto Johnny Mathis thing, but he lost me at El Tigre.
ReplyDeleteWHY is he still relevant??
ReplyDeleteI can't WAIT to see this! *LOL*
ReplyDeleteSo this video is a Sharks v. Jets idea? boo!
ReplyDeleteI'm wandering in the wilderness. What's the going rate for hiring?
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell does this mean?
ReplyDeletePlease send a note to me can you Dance.
Will Wilmer be dancing in this video?
Can't wait to see it. For the kind of money he's doling out I'm guessing it will be spectacular.
Yup this will be one of those 'serious' videos that is hilarious to watch.
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who thinks Wilmer has aged badly? Cocaine is a hell of a drug, Wilmer.
ReplyDeleteThis money is actually fairly normal for music videos. Some big bands don't even pay. It sucks. The fact that he is putting out an album gives me the skeeves but if Angelina from Jersey Shore can do it, why not? All it takes now is some degree of fame, a songwriter and Autotune.
ReplyDeletePlus (and this is a personal pet peeve of mine) it's a casting director, not a casting agent.
The characters in music videos have names? And why not use the rapper who sings on the song itself, or would that be too expensive?
ReplyDeleteEven I wouldn't be photographed with anything less than Reposado!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the label offered to kick in $5K; any overages would have to come out of his pocket, and clearly he's not going to spend a thin dime. Wow is he dumb.
