The Darth Vader Kid From the Volkswagen Super Bowl Ad Needs Open Heart Surgery.
Remember the "Darth Vader kid" from that awesome 2011 Volkswagen Super Bowl commercial? Well, his name is MAX PAGE. He's seven years old, and today, he'll be undergoing open-heart surgery. Max was born with a heart defect, and the surgery will replace his pulmonary valve and repair a hole in his heart.
In an e-mail to the website BusinessInsider.com, Max's mom says she and Max have spoken about the upcoming surgery extensively, and even made a list of things he CAN DO while he's recovering. That way, he won't focus on all that things he CAN'T do this summer. She said, quote, "[Max told me], 'Mom I don't have a choice. I have to go through it. I don't like it and it's still scary . . . but I have to. So I think I might as well go through it with a good attitude.'" When he's not acting, Max helps raise money for other kids with heart conditions. And he asked his mom to include this message from him in her e-mail . . .
"Kids, if you use your FORCE and dream big, you can achieve anything. We may be small . . . but we're mighty!"
(--You can read the whole e-mail here.)

Kenny Chesney Appears in New Commercial for ESPN's SportsCenter
Kenny Chesney stars in the latest commercial for ESPN's SportsCenter. In the spot, Kenny tries to avoid ESPN anchor Steve Levy's attempts to sit with him at the "cool table" in the ESPN cafeteria. The lighthearted commercial was filmed at ESPN's campus in Bristol, CT. Kenny really enjoyed heading back to ESPN. He says, "I got to see a lot of the anchors I've become friends with over the years, a lot of the people who come to our shows." Kenny's Brothers of the Sun tour with Tim McGraw is certainly packing in crowds at stadiums across the country. The show played to nearly 100,000 fans over the weekend at back-to-back shows in Dallas and Kansas City. Kenny's new album, Welcome to the Fishbowl, is due out June 19, featuring his latest single, "Come Over."

William Shatner Has Been Killed Off as the Priceline Negotiator!
Characters are killed off on TV shows and in movie franchises all the time. But have you ever heard of it happening in a COMMERCIAL? You have now. Priceline.com has killed off WILLIAM SHATNER'S character, the Priceline Negotiator, as part of a new re-branding strategy. But at least he goes out in a blaze of glory. Or, if you want to get technical, an exploding bus.
(The ad starts airing on Monday, but it's online already. Check it out)
