Jack White: I Wanted to Be a Movie Promoter, Not a Beverage Promoter
White Gripes
 

Black, white and red all over musician Jack White is reportedly upset that "Another Way to Die," the Bond theme he recorded with songstress Alicia Keys, was co-opted by Coca Cola for use in a series of Coke Zero commercials. Coke is temporarily rebranding Coke Zero as Coke Zero Zero 7 in order to promote Quantum of Solace, which premieres October 29, and White just can't stand this deception!

In a statement released Monday, White says he is "disappointed," adding that "Another Way" was "not for Coca Cola." Coke spokespeople have yet to respond, as they're having difficulty hearing Jack from their golden lounge chairs on top of their Scrooge McDuck piles of money.

No word yet on what sort of moral dance White did to arrive at the idea that it's OK to sell out to MGM but not Coke.

In the meantime, laugh at White getting a taste of his own, bitter medicine, as Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher is currently telling any British press person who will listen that it's a "pisstake" that a movie about a great British spy is being soundtracked by "a bunch of fucking Americans."
