Or that's what I've always heard, his wikipedia article says
Rushdie worked as a copywriter for the advertising agency Ogilvy & Mather, where he came up with "irresistibubble" for Aero and "Naughty but Nice" for cream cakes, and for the agency Ayer Barker, for whom he wrote the line "That'll do nicely" for American Express.[20] Collaborating with musician Ronnie Bond, Rushdie wrote the words for an advertising record on behalf of the now defunct Burnley Building Society that was recorded at Good Earth Studios, London. The song was called "The Best Dreams" and was sung by George Chandler.[21] It was while he was at Ogilvy that he wrote Midnight's Children, before becoming a full-time writer

i just watched the qanon shaman interview. i like the bit where he said it's a spiritual war, so you need symbols, and explained all his paraphernalia. he reminds me of the guy in grizzly man, another failed actor.

I once appeared in advert for a leading heart charity with Paul Meme's then heavily pregnant wife.

This was unpaid, however.
