Holidazed’s Dennis Haysbert Says Fans Recognize Him Most from Allstate Ads: '75 Million People a Day'

'Holidazed' actor Dennis Haysbert has starred in Allstate insurance company commercials since 2003 and tells PEOPLE, "More people have seen me as the Allstate guy than any eight shows that I've ever done"

He’s played the president in 24, starred in beloved sports comedy Major League and even portrayed God in Lucifer, but Dennis Haysbert can’t escape his gig as Allstate Insurance’s spokesman, which he began in 2003. Robert finds himself spending Christmas with his son (Jeff Joseph), daughter (Robinne Fanfair), ex-wife ( Loretta Devine) and her new boyfriend (Ser'darius Blain). The father of two says his daughter Katherine, who also appears in Holidazed and married fellow actor Eddie Gheorghe in April, typically serves as “the catalyst to get the tree.”
