On Feb. 7, 2021, NFL quarterback Tom Brady won his seventh Super Bowl at Super Bowl LV. The next day, an online advertisement teased news that purported that the quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers received his private jet as a gift. It read: [Photos] Tom Brady's Private Jet Was a Gift from Whom? The ad about Brady was surrounded by other misleading and strange advertisements. One was about Monica Lewinsky's net worth. Another ad about actor Jack Nicholson's house contained broken English. It read: [Photos] Jack Nicholson is Old Now and Lives in Such House. Readers who clicked the ad about Brady purportedly owning a gifted private jet were led to a 119-page slideshow article. They had to click next page more than 100 times to reach the page about him. He appeared near the end of the story. It's true that Brady traveled on private jets in the past. However, the story said nothing of his receiving one as a gift: The ad appeared to be nothing more than clickbait and arbitrage. In June 2008, The Boston Globe reported Tom Brady's then-girlfriend Gisele Bündchen bought a Gulfstream G550 private jet. However, on Jan. 24, 2021, Business Insider also reported that the couple doesn't own a private jet. They married on Feb. 26, 2009. Either way, there was no indication that Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen received a private jet as a gift. Other celebrities mentioned in the lengthy article about private jets included Tiger Woods, Floyd Mayweather, Mark Zuckerberg, and Mark Cuban.
