Fans of the HWA
may have caught the HWA's one and only male diva, Dick Rick, on television
recently. And we aren't talking about as part of the nationally syndicated
HWA Adrenaline either.
Dick Rick is one
of the stars in a new series of commercials for the Aldi grocery store
chain. But why did Aldi choose Dick Rick to be a part of their new ad
campaign? We asked The DR himself...
"Aldi seems to be looking to change their image a bit and begin their
first ever commercial campaign, so of course, a man and a half like The DR
is the natural choice to do just a thing. They said they needed a man to
play high-class, a man who can maybe do a little dancin', a little singin',
well The DR's no prude, and I gave them exactly what they want. So, now
that leaves me as the nationwide face of Aldi from California to Maryland.
Some might say this is a distraction, but make no mistake about it, I'm a
self-admitted greedy man, I want it all, so when it comes to television or
the upcoming Pick Your Poison Battle Royal at CyberClash 3.0, I stand
tall, I stand alone and I stand above all others. It's a new day, it's a
new DR and this elevator only seems to be going up... DR Style!"
The commercials
can currently be seen on network affiliates through out the country.
