Justin Long Dismisses the Rumors about Him and the Future Mac Commercials

Last week, the news about Justin Long not featuring in future Mac commercials was literally on every Mac-related-news site, even on Softpedia. Well, I guess that there was nothing interesting to report so this rumor took birth and I sincerely was a little glad when I heard that Justin wasn't going to join us anymore as I don't really like those commercials.

Justin has dismissed those rumors in a post that appeared on his website yesterday where he writes:
as for the mac commercials, I don't know where that report came
from that said I wasn't going to do anymore - I literally setting my alarm right now to wake up for a mac shoot tomorrow - if I'm not doing anymore I guess I can sleep in on my day off - that'd be nice. but yeah, we're doing some holiday spots now which I think will be pretty funny - not nearly funny enough to justify the money they're paying me though, I'll be honest with you. as for the future, I really don't know what I'm going to do - I'm surprised, frankly, that the campaign hasn't become tired and they've just ended it on their own - but I try to live as much in the present as I can considering the future doesn't exist, I'm not really sure. They're easy to do, I love john (the pc guy) and working with him is so effortless and fun that I definitely wouldn't rule out doing some more - and, as I said, they pay us nicely.


So this is the end of all the rumors. Justin Long will be featuring in future Mac commercials and that's it. I don't have anything against the guy, but the commercials are not that bright and I hope they will chance them with or without Justin.

The essential thing about Apple is their seriousness and their commitment in giving their customers something of quality and something unique. They do not have to mock PCs, they do not need to mock Windows and first of all, they don't have to compare themselves to others.
