Mary still does have the best smile of all the ladies - I wonder why they didn’t bother using her image. Missed opportunity - being serious here, not sarcastic.
I never knew she did this. Great voice for commercials!
I saw that spot only one time; Colgate didn't run it for very long, at least not in my local market. I remember thinking it appropriate that they used an African American female voice-over to go wih the music, but I didn't identify it as being Mary's until I read about it shortly thereafter. I waited and waited to see the spot again but it was never subsequently aired. Thanks for posting it; it's great to see it again!
Seeing this after all these years, made me remember the commercial Mary did for Tuscan Ice Cream back in the 80s. Thinking now, Mary Wilson has done television commercials [[with and without the Supremes) in the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s. I'd love to find those PSA she, Cindy and Scherried did for the American Heart Assoc. and Diabetes where they sang, "You can live with it baby if you do what the man tells you to......"
