Oh, Meatloaf. Oh, Tiffany. What happened? One minute you're engaging in some outlandish onstage dramatics or coyly crooning "I Think We're Alone Now," and the next minute you're playing. . . middle-aged suburban parents (with magic powers?) in an AT&T commercial. Sigh. It's not just that this whole ad, a family performance of Meatloaf's "Paradise By the Dashboard Light" with new lyrics about getting this teenage kid his GoPhone, is silly or way too long — though it is both those things. It's mostly just really awkward to watch.
To see what I mean (warning: cringing and blushing will probably occur), read more.

There is an art to making this type of advertising and when done well can actually revitalize a fading celeb's 15 minutes of fame. This, in contrast, is an example of how to completely END a fading celebrity's career. Yikes.
1the worst is that the kid looks like he is messin his pants when he attempts to lip sync.
2I saw this thing this morning and it was so horrific I was speechless. Meatloaf I expect this from, but Tiffany? Why oh why Tiffany?
3Tiffany is supposed to have married Meatloaf in this unsavory mess? (She's the *Mom* -- seriously?)
Miscast!
4(And the son looks like an overgrown toddler.)
5Come on, it was meant to be funny.... lighten up. It was far more entertaining than his PBS concert.
6Way to ruin your own song Meatloaf! Geez.
7His name was Robert Paulson.
8poor Tiffany. so sad. As far as Meaty's career goes, this doesn't seem that out of the ordinary. i mean, aren't these types of ads perfect for washed-up losers like him?
9I actually liked this one.
10this video ROCKED! I have no idea who you guys think you are, but I am sucker for a good commercial for a mobile phone, especially when its Meatloaf style. He brought back the ballad in a explosive advertisement for a phone. Would anything else be apbropriate to put the 'loaf into our lives? Bottom line, when the day is done and the sun is down, and the moonlights shining through, I love seeing this commercial. Tiffany brings in a leg of raw meat, AWESOME! The kids rockn face, FANTASTIC!
11Lighten up... it was meant to be funny and it was. It spoofed a few things each start had done. Take it at face value and enjoy it
12sorry he isnt a Has-been and a wash out i was at his latest concert and he was amazing as he was when i saw him years ago...i really enjoyed seeing tiffany and meatloaf preforming...he was (IS) adorable!
13the son dancing was the best part!! spirit fingers and all
14meat has been great since day one, he is a true legend. he also is blessed not only with a great voice but a brilliant sense of humor. the people that keep knocking him down are jealous they could never have kept up the pace he has, so many rockers today are has beens after a short time. rock on meat, commercial is good and funny. thanks for the wonderful years, love ya meat
15I saw this on TV and immediately thought 'Wow, Meatloaf. You've sunk so low...' It probably wouldn't be that bad if he didn't sing a sell-out version of one of his classic songs in it.
16Meat Loaf is far from a has been. It's a fun commercial. And If Tiffany wants to make a few dollars in commercial, I don't see why she shouldn't.
17I agree, this commercial was fun and theatrical. It works because it grabbed your attention with the weird pairing and great singing. Rock out Meatloaf, I like it!
18u guys suck!!!!! that was GREAT hes prob. the best singer ull ever see
19Oh gosh ever since this commercial came out it's been stuck in my head!
20whats the big deal?
