The Jingle's Celebrity Appearances
The famous ribs and jingle have popped up on various television series, including "Scrubs," "The Office," "Will & Grace," and most recently, "Workaholics." Versions of the jingle have been performed by 'N Sync, the boxing champion Evander Holyfield, USA's Olympic gold medal gymnast Dominique Dawes and "The Tonight Show" former host Jay Leno. Advertising Age magazine named the song first on its list of "10 songs most likely to get stuck in your head" in 2004. Perhaps the most memorable rendition of the jingle was performed by Mike Myers' character, Fat Bastard, in the 1999 smash movie, "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me."
