Default I've been robbed...by COCA COLA

So, I filmed a 30 second clip for a Coke commercial about 2 years ago. I was told it never got picked up and wouldn't be used. Well, a friend told me that it has been airing (or seems to be airing) on the USA Network during primetime. So, I'm gonna have to watch USA to see if it is being used 'cause a bitch ain't got a check for it.

I don't remember the scripted part, but I'm holding a coke bottle and saying something about whenever I get thirsty (the rest is a blank). I was standing in front of a big silver and red flag. I drink the coke and of course do the refreshing "ah" part. Then the other part that was filmed was me dancing holding the coke bottle on the same stage. That's all I remember.

residuals are the bomb!!!!

If you had an agent, call them and have them update Coke on your info. and make sure they did not "forget" to send you your due. Otherwise, call Coke's production team and be sure they have your current information. If that fails, I am seeing you in a red power thigh high business suit giving someone hell in Atlanta about this - please call be to film it

Hey, if they want their money to support Coke and Pepsi, more power to them. But I would hope that they're at least aware of the disgusting things both companies do.

They like to hire mercenaries and various other thugs to kill unionists in South America. The guy that's running for governor here in MA was Coca Cola's corporate secretary, executive vice president, and general counsel when all of this first came down.
