Pop Quiz: Michael Buble

Aidin Vaziri | Before becoming a Starbucks pitchman in that inescapable commercial in which he serenades a girl with "Come Fly With Me," Vancouver singer Michael Buble was doing just fine as a debonair pop crooner in his own right. Buble's self-titled 2003 debut sold 3 million copies, while his latest, "It's Time," shot up to the No. 1 position on the Billboard jazz charts. Now, just like Elvis was sidelined by cheeseburgers, Buble is at risk of getting tripped up by Venti Frappuccinos.

Q: Should I kill you now or after the interview for making that Starbucks commercial?
A: Oh, no! Would you please kill me during the interview?
Q: Let me just strangle you a little bit.
A: Is it driving you crazy? Are you seeing it a lot?
Q: Maybe you can ask them to play it just 250 times a day instead of a thousand?
A: Oh, my God. Are they playing it lots? I keep wondering why people go, "Are you the Starbucks guy?" Um, no, I'm a singer.
Q: Besides, when you first got signed, your record company ordered you to stop eating at McDonald's. Don't you know each of those Frappuccinos is like putting 10 Big Macs in a blender?
A: Are they? Well, you're coming to the show. You can tell me if I look fat.
