The last time Sex Pistols front man John Lydon was in the news stateside, he was trying to weather accusations of racism after a run-in with Bloc Party singer Kele Okereke. In six quick months, Lydon has emerged from the fog of doubt to return triumphantly as the golden goose of Country Life Butter. After signing Lydon as their pitchman, the company experienced a sales spike of eighty-five percent in the final quarter of 2008. Since the butter buyers of the United Kingdom have forgiven (or at least forgotten) the incident and spoken with their wallets, perhaps Lydon should look to pitch stateside. With the recent tragedy that befell their CEO, Jack in the Box might be in the market for another spokesman of impressive head size. [Idolator]
