Few sports stars shine as brightly as Cristiano Ronaldo, and looking through this collection of Cristiano Ronaldo ads, it's plainly evident why.
These Cristiano Ronaldo ads range from the expected (Sport-Specific Energy Drinks) to the slightly surprising (Chic Soccer Collections), each displaying the 27-year-old Portugese star in his element: in front of a camera, extolling the virtues of a new and inviting product.
Despite earning $16 million from his contract with Real Madrid, the marketing collected here in the Cristiano Ronaldo ads reveals where his bread is really buttered. Ronaldo's net worth is estimated at $160 million, much of that earned in endorsements for heavyweight brands like Nike and EA Sports.
Is he worth it? Take a look at the effortless charisma he emanates in the Momentous Soccer Moments ad. That specific combination of skill, look and ambition only coalesces in the most bankable of stars.
