Monica Ruiz, the actress who played the now-infamous Peloton wife in a viral commercial, continues to parlay that viral moment into future fame. After the Peloton ad, Ruiz found herself in a commercial for Ryan RenoldsтАЩ gin brand.
Now, she is going to be appearing in an upcoming episode of the popular daytime soap opera The Bold & The Beautiful.
From TMZ:
Our sources say MonicaтАЩs getting paid a flat fee of $2,000 to star in the future episode, which weтАЩre told will air sometime in late January. Sounds like itтАЩs not gonna be too demanding because sources tell us everything for her shoot is being done in one day тАж including rehearsals.
Sure, it is just a one-off appearance, but that is how you take advantage of viral fame.
тАЬHonestly, I think it was just my face,тАЭ Monica Ruiz told the TODAY Show after her ad went viral. тАЬMy eyebrows looked worried I guess. People were like, тАШYou look scared.тАЩ IтАЩm telling you, it was my face, that was the problem, and it just exploded it from there. She looks worried.
тАЬI just wanted to let everyone know IтАЩm fine. IтАЩm OK, IтАЩm not in a rehab for mental health anywhere.тАЭ
