Whoopi, seriously, do you need the money that bad? You must believe that the iPhone is the better product, right? You bought at least two. I think we’re all used to seeing celebrities in commercials talking up the latest products that they probably don’t use. We take it all with a grain of salt.

But it’s kind of exciting to see celebs endorse a product that they readily admit they use. Take the demos during Steve Jobs’ keynote where John Mayer comes up and shows off GarageBand. He says he uses it all the time and from the way he’s able to get around the app, that’s probably true.

However, some celebs apparently don’t care about that. Maybe The View isn’t paying as much as it used to.

Whatever it is, Whoopi is in a commercial plugging the HTC. She was spotted in line by iPhonity.com buying one of the original iPhones, which was a while ago, so maybe she changed her mind about Apple. Or maybe not.

A week before the HTC commercial came out she was photographed by Contactmusic.com coming out of the SoHo Apple Store with another iPhone. Maybe it was a gift, but Whoopi seems to have better taste than that.

C’mon, money isn’t everything. If you don’t like the iPhone and decided to go with the HTC, go for it, but you’ll be back.
