Matt Damon is getting into the holiday spirit to promote clean water for his charity Water.org. The actor has created an amusing two-minute video that features Damon playing a mall Santa, who tries to convince some adorable kids the best gift this year would be a limited edition Water.org water bottle.
Unfortunately for โDamon Claus,โ most of the kids werenโt convinced a water bottle is this yearโs โmust-haveโ item on their wish list. So the โBourne Identityโ actor tries to change their minds.
โIf you were stranded in the desert what would you rather have? This water bottle or Justin Bieber?โ Damon asks a little girl, who asked for the pop star earlier in the video. She smiles and answers โJustin Bieber.โ
Damon then tells the children heโs friends with Matt Damon and can get them an autograph bottle, but none of them had heard of the award-winning star. One little boy responded to the offer by asking, โWhoโs Matt David?โ
Eventually, he manages to persuade a girl to add a Water.org water bottle to her wish list. Sadly for Damon, the girl wasnโt impressed by his star power. โIโll just take the water bottleโ she told him. To watch the video go to http://tinyurl.com/72nevde.
Matt Damon’s new movie “We Bought a Zoo” comes out this Friday in theaters.
