This is me as the lead character in a promo for Renault, and their car, the 'Clio'. It was a lot of fun to do, they dirtied me up, messed up my hair...unfortunately, the gut is real. And just a few side notes, the commercial was only intended to be shown in Latin America, but somehow it made it's way over to Europe and it actually became an international hit! I got word it was one of the most successful campaigns in Italian television history. It was such a hit, that they sampled my voice and made it into a dance mix that reached the top 10. I was asked to come tour dance clubs as the singer (whom they dubbed, 'Tony Sweat'), but do to circumstances, I have yet to go. Another cool fact was that this commercial was featured on ABC's "Worlds Best Commercials You've Never Seen...And Some You Haven't", AND I heard it won a Golden Lion Award at the Cannes Film Festival...I know, shocked the hell out of me too!
