This just goes to show that money and fame doesn't buy happiness.

I think it is a German company. There are different Trivago spokespeople for different parts of the world.


UK:

Quote:
The face and voice of the trivago adverts and the star of London’s underground stations, is Australian performance artist, Gabrielle Miller.

Based in Berlin, the talented Aussie actress Gabrielle regularly travels the world with her band Zap! and is a creative force to be reckoned with.

I can see some smart alec cop walking him down to the cell block while punching into a fake cellphone and then saying "We found a vacancy for you in your price range"


Then slamming the door shut on him.

I'm sure he does pretty well for a commercial actor, but I doubt he's set for life or anything.

Yeah an actor only known for a series of commercials is definitely wel outside of the “money and fame” category.

He looks as dishevelled in the ads as he does in his mugshot.

That was George Zimmer, the founder of Men's Wearhouse.

Yeah I've seen them regularly recently

He's fairly recognizable and I doubt a lot of people heard about the news. Vince was on TV again fairly soon after the battery arrest, no?
