Zach Braff’s “Scrubs” character is apparently being used to sell a treatment for “boner problems” in Russia.
The actor tweeted an image on Tuesday of a Russian ad featuring a photo of himself from the bygone NBC medical comedy. Freelance reporter Diana Bruk translated some of the text, revealing that Braff’s face is being used to promote a product that “reinstates masculine strength.”
“I am the face of Russian boner problems,” Braff replied. “#blessed.”
Earlier in the week, Braff shared a different advertisement using his face to offer tech support. “Apparently in Russia I do computer repair,” he wrote.
Amused by the mix-up, his followers shared several other ads using American celebrities to promote products overseas, including Zac Efron, Mark Zuckerberg, Britney Spears and Jim Parsons.

Lol, in Russia, Zach Braff "reinstates masculine strength," which im pretty sure is a euphemism for curing impotence. https://t.co/0kkQ8nwLt0
