What I would like to know is why are there outlets on the ceilling.

To make the mistletoaster

Useful for large rooms — hard to install outlets in the middle of the floor (and dangerous). Plus you usually want the mistletoaster to hang not float up.

Not sure I've ever seen those plugs in the States

There's one in the living room of my mom's house in Texas.

Well, now Mistletoaster is canceled.
