Yes. I might give up pretzels because of her. Very creepy in all of their commercials.
These pretzels are making me thirsty.

I can think of worse fake bassists....
my idea of the worst fake bassist was Alicia Silverstone:
she's a knockout to be sure, but she was so NOT playing that bass!
BTW, I kind of hated Meryl Streep after I heard she took lessons from Neil Young & learned how to play guitar in six weeks for her movie with Rick Springfield:

Can't believe I missed this. Nothing gets past this group.
Besides being talented and intelligent, Ms. Streep's going movie contract rate also provides additional incentive to buckle down and do whatever it takes.
Passable guitar in six weeks with top notch personal instruction? For her, that's a walk in the park. (She's got a decent singing voice too!)
Looks like Capt. Janeway's sister from Star Trek Voyager.

I'm happy to be the same species as Merrill Streep sometimes. Humans can actually pull off something like that!
Ha HA, you spell Meryl Streep like she's a partner in Merrill Lynch 
Tia was the first celebrity I bumped into in Hollyweird & she was even more stunning in person.
She had some gigantic man candy on her arm that evening, but I have no idea who he was.
looked like a bodybuilder
more like passable instruction, LOL
Here's a video of the beginning of Meryl's first lesson:
BTW, I'd rather have been Billy Crudup on the set of Almost Famous, where Peter Frampton & Nancy Wilson were the instructors.

I'd be happy spending some time wiith Nancy Wilson even if were just to swap cake recipes.
A new challenger appears. I think he really thinks people will think it's him playing.
Sorry I have to keep posting this, but Hard Rock Joe is easily the greatest fake bassist to ever walk the earth. He lends his chops to this ad, which I posted once before and not long after recieved several death threats and was put on ignore by at least 20 members:
