The 7 Up Guy
If you're drinking 7 UP, you're basking in the glow of Orlando Jones, the 7 Up Guy that time forgot! You might recognize him from his parts on MADtv or from any other of his numerous appearances on sketch comedy stages and series' over the past few decades. Despite being the goofy guy behind the lemon-lime soda, Jones actually got into the acting game by being a writer first.
Great Today
Nowadays, Orlando Jones is still sitting quite pretty. After he earned about $500,000 from his 7 Up spot, he was able to take other gigs, so now he's pretty much set for life. With smart financial planning, he was able to ride that money for a while. What a crazy opportunity!
