Do you often see celebrities show up in ads for business? My question is how you say it, someone represent goods for some brand? Me finding the word “represent” seems not suit for the situation, because lots of celebrities don’t care about weather the goods is quality or not, just for money, these things at least happen in my country.

To reply to your statement. In my country Serbia and in England where I lived 17 years these things are unfotrunately happening too. It's a marketing ploy to sell products. I understand your concern and agree with you because basicaly it's a lie.
ploy - a cunning plan or action designed to turn a situation to one's own advantage.

The way you have it works--to show up in ads.
You could also say:
"Do you often see celebrities promoting a business in ads?"
It could also be called 'representing a brand/product/company.
