See that’s actually a brilliant idea. Have a series of products, actors, musicians, and sign them all together onto similar platforms. I bet Amazon could do it.

You would only see these actors using these certain types of products and appearing in movies where the action or entertainment incorporates product.

Presenting The 90s, brought to you by Amazon. Beige computers, everyone has the same hairstyle, small town Americana!

I think most people are tasteless enough to really like this.

"Taste" is just a way to divide personal preferences into arbitrary acceptability categories so that some people can have an excuse to look down on people who don't share their preferences, while giving it a facade of legitimacy.
