Celebrities are people we look up to and admire from a distance. We place them on a pedestal and assume they can do no wrong. But this myth is shattered each year as we see our favorite celebrities go bad and do things that make us blush or make us angry. Tiger Woods recently endured a lot of public flack for his infidelities, and as a result lost many sponsors. In the new Nike ad he tries to redeem himself. After his public apologies and his stint in therapy do you think the public will be able to forgive him? Do you think they will be able to support him as a golf pro at least, or do you think it will be impossible for the public to separate his private life from his professional life? Lastly, is it really any of our business what he does in his private life, after all he is a professional golfer and he did not do anything to disrupt the golf industry, impair his golf performance, or hurt his fans personally.
Below is the ad for Tiger's Nike ad
