Before They Were Stars: Anna Faris in an MSN 2.0 CD-ROM Demo

This one’s going to be quite a trip down nostalgia lane for computer geeks. In 1996, Microsoft released their MSN 2.0 service and if you subscribed to it, they would send you a demo CD-ROM called “MSN Preview” which provided an interactive tour of all their features. One of the actors who appeared in this demo was an unknown Anna Faris. You can first see her at the 1:22 mark of this clip, but then she pops up again at 4:32 to enthusiastically rave about “Channel 5”, a section of MSN 2.0 which you can visit to “satisfy your urge for something different”. Yeah, I’m pretty sure she’s subliminally advertising Internet porn here.
