Lionel Richie has had an amazing long career with The Commodores and as a solo artist, and he can still pack a house after all of these years. Now having said that, the latest place he has played was a fridge. So before you think he will play anywhere he is asked to, it was for a commercial for Tap King beer! And watching him sing Hello to that man, was just so perfect. Although it was a little creepy to see his hand sticking out of the ice box after he handed that guy the beer.
In America our Tampax ads show women happy having their periods and acting like everything is hunky dory. Well in Russia, they went a completely different way! I am not going to tell you what they did because I want you to have the same experience I had when I watched it for the first time.
Seriously it is ads like this that make me sad I didn’t go into advertising. The things I could’ve done if I was willing to swim with those sharks!
I love watching As Seen On TV ads because every now and again they have an interesting product. Well interesting is not the word I would use for the Squatty Potty, in fact I am so speechless I can’t even think of the word to describe it.
But I have to admit that it has piqued my interest. So the next time I have to go, I will use a step stool and see if it helps.
And on a positive note about the ad, at least they didn’t use people. Could you imagine, having some older guy in a khaki pants and an argyle sweater running to the bathroom, sitting on the toilet as he strains to go. Then they show him doing it again with the Squatty Potty, and smiling as he goes. Oh wait I want that ad, someone make it happen ASAP! And that is why my advertising teachers were happy when I told them I was not going into advertising.
When I saw the commercial for Bambooee, I was waiting for someone to yell out “Baba Booey!” That’s because it is so ridiculous, I thought it was fake. But somehow it is real even though they have the worst Sumo Wrestler impersonator I’ve ever seen. And I saw Morning Glory with Diane Keaton wearing a blow up Sumo Wrestler costume.
Now when it comes to the amazing towels, even though the ad is a mess I still want them to clean my messes!

For almost 20 years the Kool-Aid Man has been enjoying the life of retirement, but now he is back. Sadly while he has been relaxing instead of working, it has made calmer and less interesting. Someone needs to put some sugar in his jug because he needs some of that spunk back! Oh yeah!
