Advertising products they'd never endorse in the United States, American celebrities have always looked to Japan for extra income. Which is a shame, because Americans would have loved to have seen a post-prison James Brown shilling Cup o' Noodles in 1991.

Arnold Schwarzenegger also likes noodles.

Sylvester Stallone prefers hearty Japanese ham steaks.

A dubbed Ben Stiller gets frozen and threatened by a football team, all in the name of Japanese soda.

When you're Han Solo, you can just walk into any Japanese apartment for a beer.

A young Sean Connery and a terrifying bunny want you to buy yogurt.
