How does this sound:
A celebraty who is unpopular is not viewed in the same light as a company looking to make their product popular?
Case Study: Pepsi
Used Michael Jackson, MC Hammer, Britney Spears,... at the height of their popularity because Pepsi wanted the population to associate the love they had for these performers with their product.
Notice how Pepsi no longer employs Michael Jackson or MC Hammer.
But also note something else: Movie Actor's careers are dependant on by being highly popular or highly villianized. If Matt Damon was caught molesting a little boy, I highly doubt he would be in the next Kevin Smith movie. Now if Linda Floentino was found to have molested a little boy, everyone would run out to see her next film since all the characters she plays are sluts.
And we should improve relations with Cuba, but since I am not a politician and can not change laws, I would not publically try to circumvent the government. I would work with the government and the system because if I didn't, the system (not just the government) would come back and bite me in the ass.

<center>Boy the way Glen Miller played,
songs that made the hit parade,
guys like us we had it made,
those were the days,
and you know where you were then,
girls were girls and men were men,
mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again,
didn't need no welfare states
everybody pulled his weight,
gee our old Lasalle ran great,
those were the days!</center>
