Misconceptions - Visit California Commercial

California is the land of legend: doesn't everyone drive a convertible, surf, live in a bikini, or act like a rock star?

Well, not everyone -- and the California Travel and Tourism Commission's new "Misconceptions" television ad pokes fun at many of these stereotypes, while showcasing the State's abundance of attractions for visitors in a new TV spot. "Misconceptions" brings together some of the most famous icons in pop culture, including Betty White, Kim Kardashian, The Jonas Brothers and Jason Mraz, celebrating the vast diversity of the California experience. The ad features locations around California from ski slopes to beaches, the Golden Gate Bridge to the Redwoods and beyond.

Not many Latinos/Hispanics or African Americans in this ad? Yes there is a misconception about this ad and the truth of the people there

[Claire Bishop]

@Nadine O well most of the "Hispanics" you see are immigrants. Ugly truth

I live in Washington state and I'm thinking I might move to Cali. Washington is just too cold but there are nice sites here.

Be prepared to pay for everything.EVERYFUKNTHING... Things a simple as walking to a park, u gota pay to park, u want to see a lake? Everything is closed off EXCEPT where u can pay. Want to go fishing? 60 bucks for ur licence(out of state is $100) Like outdoors? There are fences or cables up everywhere so don't expect to explore unless its to a resort...DMV Registration is outrageous...taxes n prices are rediculous...weather is nice but I'm getn tired of Cali...Sacramento especially
