Jamie Lee Curtis explains the bold career pivot she took, even though she had a thriving acting career
Jamie Lee Curtis shifted to starring in commercials to spend more time with her children. Curtis faced skepticism from her team but proved them wrong as her career still thrived afterward. This article is part of " CMO Insider," a series on marketing leadership and innovation. When Jamie Lee Curtis became a mom, she knew her acting career had to change. After having a storied career as an actor, Curtis decided to transition to selling stuff in commercials — from Hertz rental cars, her first advertising gig, to becoming the spokesperson for Activia in the 2010s. "My agents and lawyers and many friends questioned why I would do such a thing when I was still acting in things and pretending to be other people," she told an engaged crowd Monday at the Amazon Port during the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. "I was trying to stay home with my kid," she explained. Curtis and her husband, Christopher Guest, adopted two children after dealing with infertility issues. Doing advertisements for brands such as L'eggs pantyhose, Hitachi, and a regional phone carrier, Voice Stream Wireless, which eventually became T-Mobile, meant Curtis spent less time on movie sets and more time raising her girls, Annie and Ruby, who are now adults. The actor noted that despite hesitations from her team about what starring in commercials would do to her film career, she'd still go on to star in blockbuster films such as 2018's " Halloween," 2019's " Knives Out," and 2022's " Everything Everywhere All at Once," for which she earned a supporting actress Oscar award for playing IRS auditor, Deirdre Beaubeirdre. "I sold yogurt that makes you shit for six years and I won an Oscar," she told moderator, Sue Kroll, the head of global marketing at Amazon MGM Studios. "I believe that that crossover has now happened. We can advertise and pretend simultaneously. There has been a paradigm shift in the way we as consumers take on our content, and there is no stigma anymore." Curtis's next project is an adaptation of Patricia Cornwell's novels for a Prime Video series titled "Scarpetta." The show stars Nicole Kidman as a medical examiner. Both Curtis and Kidman are executive producers.

Veteran NFL Coach Gives High Praise to Aaron Rodgers
At the age of 41, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is the oldest player in the NFL, but that doesn't mean he can no longer sling it. He still has a rocket arm. 'He's still throwing the shit out of the ball, honestly,' a veteran NFL offensive coach said, via Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. 'He's the best quarterback they've had since (Ben Roethlisberger). We will see how the body holds up, but I think he's going to help them immensely.' Advertisement Rodgers showed he can still play good football last year with the New York Jets, throwing for 3,897 yards, 28 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He was at his best late in the year, too, which is an encouraging sign for the Steelers. Of Rodgers' 30 fastest top-speed plays last season, 17 came in Week 13 or later, per NFL Next Gen Stats. Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers at minicamp on June 12, 2025. — Ed Thompson / Steelers Now Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated said the Steelers came away pleasantly surprised after doing a thorough study on Rodgers from last season. 'Their study of Rodgers showed a little more than even they expected. Early in the 2024 season, the Achilles, and a hamstring injury to follow, clearly hampered him. But as time wore on, even with the Jets struggling, the Steelers saw Rodgers returning to form,' Breer wrote. 'In the Jets' Halloween game against the Texans, he made a few big-time back-shoulder throws. He played well in both Dolphins games. In Week 16 against the Jaguars, Pittsburgh saw vintage Rodgers, with a late go-ahead touchdown throw to Davante Adams really standing out.' Advertisement As a player, Steelers quarterbacks coach Tom Arth was in the same quarterbacks room with Aaron Rodgers in Green Bay in 2006. Nineteen years later the two reunite in Pittsburgh, and Rodgers is still slinging it. Arth new from Day 1 that Rodgers was special. 'I had just come from Indianapolis and spent three years with Peyton [Manning], and obviously saw the way he played and threw the ball. And it was really immediate to me, seeing Aaron and saying, 'Man, like, you know, this guy's got some really special gifts,'' Arth said at minicamp last Wednesday. Rodgers has one of the best throwing motions in the history of the NFL. His release looks so effortless. Even at 41 years of age, Arth believes Rodgers is still at the top of his game. Advertisement 'I still think he's at the top of his game. I think he's a top quarterback in the league,' Arth siad. '…Aaron was extremely impressive. He still throws the ball very well. He's accurate. He's so smart. You can see his decision-making — doesn't take a lot of sacks.'
