Oh, yes. I think any advertiser should pay more for any celebrity to endorse their products.
It greatly influences my decisions as a consumer. I find I consume more when I see celebrities endorse products.
It's just who I am.

I would have to answer 1. I work in advertising and marketing and therefore know all the gimmicks used to make a sell. Celebrity endorsement is just another gimmick and in some ways can be insulting to a consumer's intelligence. It all depends on the fit of the celebrity to the product. Some companies go celebrity wild and can't see the forest for the trees. After all, who would buy a computer endorsed by Shaq? Only fans of Shaq. Most consumers would weigh the features and price and wonder what value would be added by having Shaq's name on the computer. I know that the celebrity is being paid good money to endorse something they usually have no real stake in, so it actually works the other way around for me. Having said that, I would use the right celebrity for the right product in a heartbeat, because it does work. Tiger Woods can sell the snot out of golf clubs, but what cell phone he uses is a matter of personal preference. Would I feel like Tiger if I bought this phone? No. Would I tell my friends that this is the same phone that Tiger uses? No. I would look stupid by doing so. But buying the same clubs that a champion uses shows that I am a serious about doing well in the game.

No, absolutely not. One would assume that most reasonably intelligent people would KNOW that celebreties get paid for endorsing these products. In no way does it imply they are using them Why on earth would I make some celebrity even richer?

when i was younger and naive they influenced everything I did. As I grew up and realized half of the time they don't even use or eat those products, for ex. Beyonce is allergic to truestar the tommy perfum, so currently no, they don't influence me at all.

Not one bit. They are paid to say the product works, just like any other product on the market with unknown actors.

No, not at all. If anything it makes me lose a bit of respect for that celebrity knowing that their opinion can be bought so easily.

No, it actually has the exact opposite effect on me, i no longer drink Pepsi, just because of all the annoying celebrity ad camapigns they have. Especially that one with Pink, Beyonce, Britney and Enrique singing "We will rock you", that made me sick.

it really depends...
i mean if i really really...to the extreme level love the artist...i may consider looking into the product but of course i would just buy it if the product isn't too expensive, that i really need it...etc.
