Listen up, for the formerly homeless man with a golden voice, Ted Williams, is now in a series of Kraft cheese commercials. Williams is doing voice-over work for Homestyle Macaroni and Cheese.
Lynna Galia, a spokeswoman for Kraft, told the Chicago Tribune that they were taken with Williams after seeing his YouTube video and hired him to work on four commercials.
“We were moved by his story and his amazing voice,” Galia said, adding that Williams’ voice is “perfectly suited” for the ad campaign. “We were in the middle of making our TV spots and in a unique position to help Ted use his great voice and also provide him employment.”

Ted is definitely the first internet star of 2011. Homeless for four years, until discovered by a reporter from the Columbus Dispatch off Ohio’s I-71. The reporter’s video was less than two minutes — and captivated the world as soon as it was uploaded online. Click here to watch the original video and monitor Ted’s progress.
This is truly an amazing story — it’s so touching I get tears in my eyes just thinking about it. From homeless man that people tried to ignore to superstar status in less than a week — just proves that you should always have faith and never give up because you never ever know what’s coming next.
Ted Williams, the man with a golden voice, is now a household name. Move over Bieber, there’s a new internet sensation now. Or hey, wait a minute, wouldn’t a Bieber and Williams collab be AMAZING?? Hey, at this point, ANYTHING can happen.
Congrats Ted!
