Things are tough during this global pandemic and many people are resorting to a side hustle to pay the bills.
And that could possibly explain rapper, actor and failed Fyre Festival organiser Ja Rule fronting an ad for a local Greek restaurant in his hometown of Los Angeles.
The 44-year-old is the rather odd new face fronting a TVC for local taverna, Papa Cristo’s Greek Grill.
If you can put the appalling production and avalanche of expletives to one side, there are actually some funny moments as Ja Rule attempts to pronounce some of the difficult menu items such as okatapodakia, avgolemono soup and kreatopita.
Check out the calamity below. And, thankfully, the swearing has been beeped out.
Ja Rule, of course, was also behind the ill-fated Fyre Festival in 2017 but was later cleared of a $US100 million class action against the event.
Apparently, he’s become famous on social media for his odd – and frequently failed – business ventures.
And, yet again, his work for Papa Cristo’s Greek Grill has been savaged on social media. Check out some of the better takedowns (and compliments) below:
