New Oral B Celeb endorsement...

... And this one comes from Boy George. You read that right. Boy George, of Culture Club. Boy George, of "Karma Chameleon" and "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" pop song of the '80s fame, the "androgynous" dresser who just hit the big 5-0. His Twitter page says he's "Buddhist in my aspirations, catholic in my complications!" whatever that means. 

He's on Facebook and Twitter promoting ... are you ready for this ... his new Oral B toothbrush! "My new Oral B toothbrush is rockin'" he states on Facebook. Plenty of friends commented, saying, "You have a rockin' smile," and "What a huge plug for Oral B." And my favorite, "I wish I had used an electric toothbrush back when I was 17 and worshipped you. Now I'm 46 and need dentures."

Boy George posted a photo of his new brush on Twitter. I was surprised to see it isn't even electric! http://twitpic.com/7mrkjq/full

I'll be honest. I'd completely forgotten about Boy George. Couldn't tell you what he's been up to for several decades. But reaching out to the dental world? Well, that's a different story. Now he has our attention!

What do you think? Do celebrities, no matter how obscure, do much to help promote oral health?
