iPod shadow dancer can't afford iPod
Mandy Coulton (not pictured) is one of the dancers in Apple's very successful dancing silhouette advertisements for the ubiquitous iPod. This in and of itself isn't newsworthy, however, what if I told you that Mandy can't afford to buy herself an iPod?Ok, still not that newsworthy but it is kinda fun to read about. It seems that Apple paid Ms. Coulton a mere $1500 to dance her fanny off in the commercial but what with rent and car payments Ms. Coulton couldn't afford the $400 for an iPod (I wonder if she knew about the Shuffle or the mini). Now before you start mocking her (though I may have started already) she had this to say for herself, "At the time, $1,500 seemed a lot of money - but now my picture is absolutely everywhere. But I'm not bitter or anything."
