Funny Trojan Vibrating Touch for Her Commercial

Ha ha ha! Who directed this?



Here's some random product description I found: "Trojan Her Pleasure Vibrating Touch is a small yet powerful fingertip massager providing thrilling vibrations. With a bonus storage pouch and two batteries included (ignore this fragment sentence). Trojan Vibrating Touch is washable and reusable (batteries can be replaced and last up to 30 minutes)."

An Anti-Cigarette Commercial for Stoners

I was just freaked out by one of those anti-tobacco "Truth" commercials. They're taking it too far with the whole animation gimmick.

The commercial I just saw included a disturbing ditty about how smoking can lead to the birth of underweight babies.

Here are some of the lyrics (sung by a cartoon stork):

"Healthy babies are just no fun.
They eat too much and they weigh a ton.
It's really just a shame they have to grow...

They might be small and limp and sickly.
But they’re so cute and extra tickly."

I couldn't find a embedable clip (that worked), so here are some stills.




Also, I addressed only the commercial with my headline, but the entire "The Sunny Side of Truth" Web site seems like it would be more palatable while under the influence of weed.

These guys are there.


Don't bother going to the site though. I wholly encourage you to keep puffing away. More people need to smoke.

Obviously I'm kidding.

Update: Found it!



If given the option, I think I would rather push out a small baby BTW.

And what's up with the gerbil?

Celebrities Make Nintendo DS Look Un-Fun

I so DON'T want one of those Nintendo DS Lite things after seeing two of its commercials, featuring Carrie Underwood, 25, and Liv Tyler, 30.

Yeah, writing your name isn't that fun.

Underwood and her glorified Giga Pet clearly don't know how to have a good time either.

There's a reason these things are passé.

And that reason has to do with the fact that they suck. But maybe I'm just pissed cause mine always died.

What'd You Think?


The Lohan's (Living Lohan) and Denise Richards's (It's Complicated) reality shows debuted tonight on E!.

And all I have to say is 'meh.'

Dina
, 45, and Ali, 14, said they're taking their lives to the small screen to "defuse rumors" and prove they're "normal." But by "normal," they meant stupid and boring. (Actually I guess that's a pretty accurate description for the vast population). The first five minutes of Living Lohan consist of Dina flipping through the daily rags, in search of something to bitch about. Then Ali complains about the song selection for her upcoming album; still ends up singing something crappy.

Things over at It's Complicated weren't much better. Richards plans to throw a BBQ, but oops, there's nothing to cook on. Thank goodness for BBQ Galore and its $5,000 grills.

The best part of show is when Richards, 37, catches her pet pigs going at it.



Consequently, is that true?!?! Do boy pigs have corkscrew-shaped penises?

Oh yeah, and then there was the part where her little dog eats pig shit off the rug.




Thoughts on the shows or any of this?

Lohan & Campbell on the Ugly Betty Season Finale

Lindsay Lohan, 21, is in the Ugly Betty season finale for all of 30-seconds. But fret not, the Betty-Lohan collaboration isn't over. She'll star in at least five more episodes next season.

Somewhere waay deep-down I'm rooting for her to get her shit together.

Here's the clip.



Moving on, supermodel Naomi Campbell's appearance is also brief; but surprisingly and pleasantly funny.

She plays a softball player on team Elle, Mode's rival publication, on and off the field. As Campbell, 38, steps up to bat, she reaches to answer her ringing cell phone. Consequently, both the people in the stands and the ball players dive to evade the possible wrath of her throw. Alas, she behaves herself.

See it with your own eyes.




And while you're at it, peep this cute podcast with Michael Urie, 27, (Marc) and Becki Newton, 29, (Amanda).







Love them!


BTW: Did anyone else notice that tonight's soundtrack featured nothing but Madonna songs?

Sculpts Stomach, Kills Brain Cells

I just watched a commercial for some weird thing called a Bender Ball. It's a supposed wonder mini-exercise-ball that sculpts and flattens abs.

The first customer testimonial, from the said commerical, left me wondering if the girl doing the talking was A.) high or B.) just really dumb.

When describing the benefits of the Bender Ball, the blonde chick, drolls:

"I love my abdominals. Yes, I love my belly. I love my abdominals."










What, do you like OxyContin too? Cause it's either that, or someone hit you in the head with a "tube-sock full of wood scurs."

Just watch the first six seconds and be done with it.
