Many believe Jonathan Goldsmith more commonly known as "The Most Interesting Man in the World" is one of the reincarnations of Gandhi scattered throughout the world to make where we live a better place. Just his presence on this planet makes Earth a more knowledgeable place. He is the spokesman and the face of the beer Dos Equis. Dos Equis was first brewed by a German born Mexican. The two X's on the infamous green bottle signify the 20th century as in Siglo XX (XX are roman numerals).
Jonathan Goldsmith himself was born to Jewish parents in the Big Apple. However, to highlight the Dos Equis beer, in the commercials Goldsmith is made out to be of hispanic descent. This is probably to attract a specific target audience for the commercial.
He attended New York University but dropped out in order to pursue an acting career. There's no doubt that his decision was the right one. Now anyone who has watched one of his commercials is a more enlightened being.

I'm very impressed with your background knowledge of Jonathan Goldsmith and more importantly your comparison to Ghandi. I find this a very effective alcohol commercial. It of course has the same components as most, beautiful women, a large female to male ratio etc. The spokesperson looks kind and a compelling figure.
ReplyDeleteDos Equis does a great jog with their ad campaign withe the most interesting man in the world. The audience loves all the facts given about him and is given a good laugh. Dos Equis gives the impression that if you drink their beer, that you will become as sophisticated as Jonathan Goldsmith, so I also agree that it is a very effective ad campaign.
