What's so bad about a commercial here and there using celebrities? Though perhaps I do not have the appropriate context since I never listened to him.

Alice Cooper was never into the whole "i'm too good for tv" thing. he's always been fairly commercial.

and he's a nice guy.

But but but, musicians aren't allowed to make money outside of album sales and touring!

You should always see this coming.

You will never see the best musicians the world has to offer.

You will only hear them...

IE the exact opposite of the kind of lame-ass money driven pop icon that'd appear on random ads for extra cash. If there was a point to counter culture, it was to be creative and make art for art's sake, to not be shallow sellouts.
Maybe he found the commercial fun? To be honest, I do not know his history at all so perhaps I have no idea what I am talking about, but it's a different time, so maybe he wanted to do something fun/outlandish with his fame instead of just going for the artistic route.

i think chakra has hit the nail on the head, Cooper always did what he thought was fun, so why is this any different?
