  • The importance of the celebrity spokesperson can be multiple and not necessarily mutually exclusive, such as Testimonial, Endorser & Spokesman. Psychology literature has identified three dimensions of source credibility, in particular when the source is an individual; trust, expertness and attractiveness. The present study empirically examines the consumer perception towards FMCG endorsements by sportspersons. Attractiveness trustworthiness and expertise have been positively perceived by the consumers.
