Chrissy Teigen and John Legend can't choose a TV show in Google Assistant ad

Legend actually sings in one of the ads too, albeit about the time it takes for Teigen to find a TV show.

Just like you, celebrities find the small things in life difficult.

It's something that's highlighted in a series of ads for Google Assistant, released during the Oscars on Monday.

The first of the ads features John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, trying to deal with the annoying task of searching for a show on TV, convincing that you should "make Google do it," the ad's tagline.

Legend actually sings in one of the ads too, albeit about the time it takes for Teigen to find a TV show.

Then here's NBA star Kevin Durant forgetting to remember his grocery list.

And in probably the pick of the three, singer Sia's ruminations as she gets dressed in her elaborate getup.

The campaign comes after a handful of feature announcements Google recently made, which include the addition of location-based reminders to its smart speakers in the near future.

It means if you say, "Remind me to get milk from the grocery store," it'll send you a notification to do just that when you swing by the store.

Or for Durant, maybe that'd be, "Remind me to get spinach, taco seasoning, pepperjack cheese, avocados and crab legs."
