KFC Serves Tonight's Runner-Up a Juicy Recording Deal
$10,000 Corporate Deal on the Table to Star in New KFC Commercial
LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 24 /PRNewswire/ -- KFC knows a real star when it sees one. Although L.A.'s favorite singer did not capture all of tonight's votes, KFC is offering the future star her first corporate recording deal -- a chance to write and star in an upcoming advertisement for its newest product, KFC Famous Bowls.
Although America's last-standing female contestant finished second in tonight's finale, she's continually "bowled" over America with her musical talents, especially her version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" dubbed "the single best performance of the competition," by America's toughest judge. Now, tonight's runner-up can turn defeat into a sweet $10,000 commercial recording deal plus a year's supply of KFC Famous Bowls. She has until June 7, 2006 to accept KFC's offer and satisfy her hunger for fame.
"KFC feels strongly that both finalists are true winners and we are excited to offer the runner-up an opportunity to further showcase her talents in an upcoming KFC Famous Bowl commercial," says Scott Bergren, executive vice president of marketing, KFC.
KFC's new Famous Bowls provide a hearty meal "just like mom used to make," with layers of mashed potatoes, sweet corn and bite sized crispy chicken, drizzled with signature home style gravy and topped off with a three cheese blend -- all in one convenient bowl.
