In the ad, Estrada, dressed in an officer’s uniform, while Carpenter, clad in a cheerleader outfit, bumps people away by shaking her behind.

Along with actor and bodybuilder Lou Ferrigno, they form the “Butterfinger Defense League”.

“I’m very sassy. I’m quick with the hips and the hair roll and the hair toss,” Carpenter said during a recent satellite press interview, before give a demonstration.

“They chose me because Cordelia on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel – she’s sassy, she’s witty, she says what’s on her mind. She protects herself really well, so it makes sense that Butterfinger would sort of harness that within me to assist others on how to protect their Butterfingers,” she said

Buffy the Vampire Slayer ran from 1997 to 2003. Carpenter reprised her role on the Buffy spinoff Angel, which starred David Boreanaz of the current series Bones.

Charisma guest-starred several months ago on the action-fantasy series Legend of the Seeker and also has a role in the action thriller film The Expendables, which stars and is directed by Sylvester Stallone. The movie is set to be released in August.
