Ben Roethlisberger will be a part of the new season of "American Idol" on FOX, but he won't be giving up his day job as an NFL quarterback. Roethlisberger recently filmed a commercial for the show, and FOX will air it during the telecast of Super Bowl XII.
"It was a little crazy," said Roethlisberger. "It was fun. The people you work with usually make it fun. The director and everybody were a lot of fun."
Roethlisberger spent about eight hours on the set but didn't want to reveal too many details about the shoot.
"It ties in with football and the show, and so I will leave it at that," said Roethlisberger.
One of the scenes had Roethlisberger as a player in the locker room daydreaming about a contestant on "American Idol" while the coach of the team was delivering a pep talk.
"You never know how it's gonna end up turning out," he said. "It's a little bit of jumping around, so we'll see how they kind of tie it in together."
Roethlisberger enjoyed the experience, especially since he's a big fan of the opening episodes of the show's new season.
"I love watching the beginning part of it when people just go out and make fools of themselves," said Roethlisberger. "That's the part I watch."
