I want to punch Tony Sinclair right in the mouth…

...every time I see one of those stupid Tanqueray commercials. Is anyone else as sick of those commercials as I am? It can’t just be me. Who the hell is this guy anyway? I’m not sure if that’s his real name or he’s just an actor I’ve never heard of hired by a booze company I’d never heard of. My wife keeps insisting that it’s D.L. Hughley and I keep having to tell her it’s not and that just makes the commercials that much more annoying to have come on fifteen hundred times during a show. The “bio” for Mr. Sinclair at the Tanqueray website reads as follows:

Tony Sinclair. Socialite extraordinaire, world traveler and the TANQUERAY Gin company’s best find ever. Armed with a witty line and a cocktail shaker, Tony is the master of the mix for TANQUERAY Gin.

Wow. It makes him sound like a complete putz. Does this crap actually sell liquor? Are there really people out there who see this guy shilling booze who think to themselves, “I’m going to buy me some Tanqueray gin just so I can be like socialite extraordinaire Tony Sinclair!” Hell, is he even known by anyone for anything other than those stupid TV commercials?

All I know is I want to slap the shit out of him every time he laughs that ridiculously overwrought laugh of his. I’m assuming I must not be the target audience for that commercial cause it really doesn’t make me want to buy that particular brand of gin.

Hahaha, Les!!!  I haven’t seen that ad.  Of course, I haven’t watched much TV lately other than DVDs… wink Anyway, Tanqueray is supposed to be one of the more primo gins out there.  Since I’m not really a gin fan, I can’t vouch for that.  I know it is pricier than Beefeater’s (or whatever the hell it is).  I also know that it fluoresces green under a black light- that’s pretty cool!

I’d love nothing more than to see a commercial where Tony is smacked in the mouth with a 2x4 by some drunk who then yells “You wanna Tankaray now?”

Most likely, the only person Tony appeals to...is Tony himself!

You got my vote.... Punch out that bastard!!!!!

He is the most vile excuse for a mascot I ever seen. I for one would not buy that drink because oh that ugly bastard on the advertistment.

If that dickface is helping them sell gin, you might as well jump on the bandwagon and reap the benefits.  He is so fucking annoying, but there has to be something you could sell… Like Trojan condoms.  For example social gathering, there is a nice big serving tray of Trojans, and you say, “I’m Hector of Troy, ha ha ha, LET’S FUCK!”

Yeah, go ahead and punch him…

He is actually actor Rodney Mason from Philly - The actor does a real good job. What’s annoying is the ad team’s obvious Austin Powers rip off.

Ok, even if her’s an actor, and the ad campaigne is working, I would still like to see a commercial with some slapstick that would make the whole “Tony Sinclaire” bit a little funnier.  Perhaps Tony is eating a Subway Sanwich, and before he can finish stating his name, Jared (the former 400lb pig) takes it from his hands and says, “I’m Jared… are you ready for Subway.” In the background someone else sees Tony and punches him in the mouth.  Everyone wins.

Re:Tony Sinclair-say what you will but this is top shelf no pun intended and his music is fresh as well...well,ready to Tanqueray!?

Les United States Posted on 01/06/2006 at 10:07 PM

No, I’m not. If his music is as annoying as he is then I’m glad I’ve never heard it.

Ok, so the comment about how the tony sinclair commercials are overplayed is true.  However, the fact that the stupid evil bastard has never heard of taqueray displays with plenty of clarity that he either has his head in his ass or lives in one of the “fly-over” states…

Apparently the Urkel / Buckwheat on crack doing Austin Powers impersonations is the new look for the socialite extraordinaires in England.

The ONLY thing missing from “you wouldn’t put a Donkey in the Kentuckey Derby would you?”, and that gawd awful chuckle is him saying “O-TAY” right afterwards.

Besides with that character I might as well put a Donkey in the Derby and why not, Tanguray has an Ass pimping their product.

I want to see Dave Chappelle do this commercial.

Buckwheat on crack> Ha ha!! Finally, a site that hates this butt ugly fuck. I wish he would smash himself in the face for his embarrising claim to fame and put US out of our misery. Maybe it would improve his looks. I have actually read sites that freaking LOVE this guy. Can you believe that?? They think he is handsome too. Good Lord!Makes me want to puke.Otay!

This guy is a fruity loser who needs to be snuffed. I’d like to see him drink too much of his green-bottled bathtub gin, stagger into the street and right under a fucking cab. Good bye, you gap-toothed reject.

Isnt Tanqueray the drink that the sailer who crashed the Exon Valdez in Alaska long time back? O-Tay to Tanqueray? No! It seems to me that these musical types will will sink down and do some TV ads to make some money. As Les stated “Who the hell is this guy?” This must mean that his music career isnt working out to well. I never heard of him and most people I talk to dont know to much either. (even the ones who like rap) Socialite extraordinaire? Seems to me that is some one who tries to hard.

I don’t drink, but if I did I would drink Tanqueray because of Tony. Any piece of poor white trash that gets this upset about an actor making commercials is either too lazy or stupid to hit the mute button on his remote. Or maybe the ignorant bubba is jealous because Tony Sinclair could buy and sell him a hundred times over. He’s laughing all the way to the bank. Good for you Tony.

Les United States Posted on 09/02/2006 at 01:42 AM

If my being annoyed with him is enough to get you to drink the liquor he’s shilling then that doesn’t exactly paint you in a much better light.

I stumbled across this because I did a Google search on that asshole to see if he was actually somehow famous and to further boil my blood so that if I ever run across him on the street I can kick him in the fucking throat without hesitating.

Thanks for the service.

Tony Sinclair is a distant cousin of the Pillsbury Dough Boy, from Aunt Jemima’s side of the family.

I think Tony Sinclair is the HOTTEST thing I have EVER SEEN.  I’m 5’8” natural blonde/green eyes with 3 degrees.  I wish he were a real person!  He’s my fantasy man!  OOOOHHH....just thinking about those gap teeth make me hot.

Yeah, I am serious!

I think Tony gives less than a fuck what poor, white, trailer park trash thinks of his commercials while he’s on t.v., with the big bank account.  Wonder who’d like to see commercials of rednecks swilling beer in front of the t.v. in their crummy trailers, yelling YEE-HAWWW!!!!!!!! why does it bother you so much, it’s a fucking, fictional character for a commercial!  Get a life assholes!!!!

Les United States Posted on 12/08/2006 at 02:37 PM

Why does it bother you so much that I’m bothered so much by that commercial? Take some of your own advice.
