In 1982, Burger King became the first restaurant to mention a competitor by name in an advert, claiming that McDonalds used 20% less meat in its burgers and prompting the rival chain to sue. Despite being five years old, the actress was also sued, though luckily for Sarah Michelle Gellar, it didnt harm her future career. For good measure, Gellar was also banned from entering any branch of McDonalds Other celebrities whove appeared in Burger King ads, yet managed to remain on the right side of the law, include Ben Affleck, Meg Ryan and Elizabeth Shue.
