Jennifer Coolidge plays the role of the dolphin of her dreams in a hilarious Super Bowl commercial
Jennifer Coolidge finally got the chance to play the “dream” role of a dolphin, as the comeback queen stars in an upcoming Super Bowl commercial alongside The White Lotus director Mike White.
The 61-year-old Golden Globe-winning actress showed off her comedic flair – and high-pitched dolphin sounds – in a sneak peek for an elf cosmetics ad, a month after revealing she’d love to play the aquatic mammal in her next paper.
In the commercial for the brand’s Power Grip foundation, the beauty opens a PR pack and exclaims, ‘I love freebies! Get ready for prime time!
As she applies the viral product to her fully made-up face, she declares: ‘Oh my gosh! It seems that I came from the sea, I look like a dolphin! Like a baby dolphin! before launching into a series of high-pitched squeals and whistles.
She adds: I love it. This primer material is sticky. I’m so dewy people are going to complain! before bursting out laughing.
She is back! Jennifer Coolidge finally got the chance to play the “dream” role of a dolphin, as the comeback queen stars in an upcoming Super Bowl commercial alongside The White Lotus director Mike White.
The script was co-written by White, who created, wrote and directed the critically acclaimed series The White Lotus, featuring Jennifer as Tanya McQuoid: an eccentric, lovesick heiress who earns her universal acclaim.
Jennifer cut a typically glamorous figure in the commercial, with her hair styled in soft waves and wearing a fuchsia pink silk robe.
The 30-second commercial will air on February 12 during the second quarter of the Big Game, in which the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the Philadelphia Eagles.
It’s been a busy few weeks for Coolidge, as he’s been on the awards circuit with the cast of HBO’s hit series The White Lotus.
The show follows a group of guests vacationing at the exclusive Hawaiian resort, The White Lotus, for a week.
But relaxing and rejuvenating in paradise is thwarted as each passing day brings to light “a darker complexity in these picture-perfect travelers, the hotel’s cheerful employees and the idyllic spot itself,” according to the synopsis.
Coolidge’s performance has earned him critical acclaim, as well as a number of highly coveted accolades.
