Wanna be on TV

Super Bowl commercials are often just as popular as the game itself. Recently, Randy Lerner decided to enter the “Doritos Crash the Super Bowl” commercial contest, in which contest entrants submit a 30-second video for a chance to win $1 million. Randy went to the residents at Brookdale Plaza Galleria, formerly known as The Hampton, for help, as he was seeking a talented individual to play a “grandma” in his commercial. The competition was fierce. Talented thespians included (from left) Toni Edwards, Blanche Abramson, Gladys Kahn, Johannah Wilkenfeld, Naomi Friedman, Stan Fuss (dressed as a grandma), Loretta Roman, Yetta Gilbert, Flo Selber, Abbey Taylor, Patricia Brammer and (in front) commercial director Randal Lerner. “I appreciated all the great support from the folks at Brookdale Plaza Galleria,” said Randy. Good luck to all who auditioned and make sure to look out for this hopeful entry at Super Bowl 2015.
