Infomercial Personality

The Resume

    Born in Australia
    Also appeared on infomercials for The Grill Devil and The Perfect Omelete
    Director of Homeland Housewares
    Hosted the Magic Bullet infomercial

Why he might be annoying:

    His Australian accent sounds like a fake British accent.
    He developed a kitchen gadget called the Perfect Omelet for people who wish to make omelets in the microwave and have trouble flipping/folding omelets in a pan.
    In his Magic Bullet infomercial, he claims one can chop all foods without using a knife yet the foods he inserted into the gadget have been cut.
    He also claims one can use the personal blender to make meals without dirtying a pan, yet his assistant cooked an omelet in a pan, dirtying the pan.
    Still in the same infomercial, he made pasta sauce when, obviously, someone used a pot to pre-cook the pasta.
    His Red Devil Grill has been recalled because users suffered burns.

Why he might not be annoying:

    His Magic Bullet infomercial is entertaining to watch and sucks in viewers with its cheesy presentation, bad acting and puffed product claims.
    That personal blender has garnered $250 million in sales in 18 months.
    The infomercial for Magic Bullet earned the Infomercial of The Year honor at the 15th Annual Electronics Retailing Association Awards (2006).
