- Badfish2, on 10/03/2008, -3/+127British butter is punk as *****!
- mahomet, on 10/03/2008, -9/+68Punk is toast!
- darkchild82, on 10/03/2008, -4/+59Nothing says rock 'n' roll better than a bottle of Jack Daniel's in one hand and buttered toast in the other.
- ericbramlett, on 10/03/2008, -7/+47That's jacked up. What's next, Joey Ramone slinging vacuums?
- shutaro, on 10/03/2008, -3/+41I don't know that I'd buy a vacuum from a zombie, tho...
- divinediva, on 10/03/2008, -3/+39Its really quite wierd. I could really go for some Country Life butter now though.
- paulieslim, on 10/03/2008, -1/+36I can't believe it's not bollocks
- masterdelrond, on 10/03/2008, -12/+43Lyden is a ***** - always has been and always will be.
- cloud4197, on 10/03/2008, -8/+34Lyden sold out years ago. He's even been on a UK reality TV program called I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here.

*shakes head*
Johnny.. Johnny, Johnny. - nowsourcing, on 10/03/2008, -7/+27wow, he's really hit the wall. Next stop, Viagra ads.
- HillerMylife, on 10/03/2008, -1/+20Maybe he's just really passionate about butter.
- GuyBatterson, on 10/03/2008, -5/+24You can't sell what you don't have. The guy was never punk, just a greedy dick.
- jbmcb, on 10/03/2008, -1/+19Clash FTW.
- inactive, on 10/03/2008, -5/+22Wow, talk about lowering the bar for yourself....
- flashingcurser, on 10/03/2008, -3/+20John Lydon had done a lot of things other than be "Johnny Rotton" of the sex pistols.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lydon
He is quite a talented musician and has very interesting political views. He's definitely a pop-culture icon that he wasn't 30 years ago. TV commercials with him in them don't seem particularly weird to me. - diggzoid, on 10/03/2008, -2/+18Oh wait a minute, Johnny Rotten was once really authentic. Right... and Malcolm Mclaren just happened to come along at just the right moment. This is really just Lydon doing what he always has done; playing a parody of himself.
- vannoy, on 10/03/2008, -1/+17I dunno.. The fact that Joey is dead might make that a little hard..
- painting, on 10/03/2008, -3/+18when you appear on commercials. you get money for it. Its really simple. Why is everyone so confused?
- knupso, on 10/03/2008, -10/+25Johnny Rotten was no bad ass and the sex pistols were nothing but a punk boy band put together by Malcolm McLaren.
Their music sucks and they were "sellouts" from the word go. - leethorn, on 10/03/2008, -2/+15"Suck Satan's *****!"
- Synn, on 10/03/2008, -0/+13I know I WOULD buy one from a zombie...especially if it was zombie Joey Ramone.
- TacoHell, on 10/03/2008, -4/+17Why Johnny!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZimbxYoRe2U&NR=1 - ScottMcIntyre, on 10/03/2008, -3/+15Morriss Dancing and Johnny Rotten- how very traditionally British... old chap! :-)
- dbldn, on 10/03/2008, -9/+20Wonder what Billy Idol is doing...
- GiJoeBob, on 10/03/2008, -1/+11He was always all style and no substance.
- Coffeedemon, on 10/03/2008, -0/+10Send in Vanilla Ice...
Hello, Vanilla. We're going to have to do something about that hair. - Triptastic, on 10/03/2008, -2/+12Johnny Rotten, unofficial spokesman for the anti establishment punk scene, sells out completely. That is confusing.
- theradical, on 10/03/2008, -1/+11It didn't stop Fred Astaire.
- brstilson, on 10/03/2008, -2/+11You mean the former lead singer of a band that was quite literally manufactured by a record company to capitalize on the underground punk scene of the late 70's would hawk everyday items for monetary compensation? SAY IT ISNT SO!!!!
- shutaro, on 10/03/2008, -0/+9Toast is punk!
- Coffeedemon, on 10/03/2008, -3/+11Worked for Fred Astaire.
- awtripp, on 10/03/2008, -0/+8You haven't read many lyrics then.
- inactive, on 10/03/2008, -1/+9Probably the whole anarchy, ***** corporatism, and all other adolescent ramblings of the sex pistols.
"Weee heee! I'm british, I love Britain, buy some butter" - shutaro, on 10/03/2008, -1/+8I dunno... I mean, it's not Orson Welles selling fish sticks.
- flashingcurser, on 10/03/2008, -0/+7From the grave?
That would be creepy, I guess you would pay attention though. - Phelyx, on 10/03/2008, -2/+9So John Lydon should just sit around without paychecks and continue to represent your idea of punk rock for you? I must assume that whoever calls him greedy doesn't work for anyone and doesn't "sell out" to pay the bills. Seriously, isn't the fantasy of the FTW/DIY punk played out yet? And what could be more anti than a butter commercial, anyway? He's a performance artist. Consider it a comment on public image if you need to.
- kidwookiee, on 10/03/2008, -1/+8If this surprises you, then you aren't familiar with PIL. Welcome to the Lydon hating party. You are very, very late.
- rowlodge, on 10/03/2008, -1/+8would be funnier if that was Mick Jagger.
- badenglishihave, on 10/03/2008, -0/+7You obviously don't know anything about this guy. One of his band mates was addicted to heroin but I don't believe Johnny ever was.
- beloitpiper, on 10/03/2008, -0/+7gg allin?
- dxgg, on 10/03/2008, -3/+9Johnny Rotten seriously conjured up the thought of Billy Idol? My god, please don't tell me you think Billy Idol was actually a punk rocker.
(yes, I'm getting on my old school musical high horse on this one...okay, getting down now). ;) - crazymaster16, on 10/03/2008, -3/+9hehe, thats funny
- endriquelimones, on 10/03/2008, -0/+6Fred Astaire pulled it off.
- vatosplace, on 10/03/2008, -3/+9***** Typical.
- WARonTREES, on 10/03/2008, -0/+6viva la CLASH!!
RIP Joe Stummer - inigomntoya, on 10/03/2008, -0/+6No, Viagra is too punk. Its gonna be Depends Undergarments.
- ChristianMagic, on 10/03/2008, -0/+6No, ***** you they were filling their belly before like everyone else.
- sbuzz, on 10/03/2008, -1/+6I'd like to blame RnB and Rap. Mainstream rock today is made up of some extremely softcore bands which is why people like Johnny Rotten are doing butter ads.
- WiretapStudios, on 10/03/2008, -0/+5Well who knows, they re-animated Orville Redenbacher for a commercial..
