3 second Advert disgust

Hi :)
I am a big supporter of Live 8 and cant wait for something to actuly be done in the coming weeks at G8! yet I cant help but feel annoyed at the 3 second advert! It is possible one of the most effective advert ever made...apart from few people featured in the advert including Justin Timberlake.

Most of the celebs drop there 'cool' and there 'image', look straight into the cam and click. Yet Justin Timberlake and a couple of others seem to think while getting the important message of a child dieing every click other to the viewers. They also believe they have to keep up there cool and i feel push them selfs a little, by facing away from cam, turning slightly and clicking with attitude. I feel that situation isn’t a place to push your self and show u have an image. I for the life of me can not think who else it was in the advert that did that as well (so im going to be picking on justin) Some of you may not understand what I am talking about but please just watch the advert and see what you think

Did any one else feel this wasn’t appropriate? The simple (yet very effective) stare into the cam (The effect of looking into your eyes) and click.

P.s you have all better put your name on the live 8 list!
