I like how almost none of the people in the commercial were smoking cigarettes. And I certainly don't think "Style" applies to polka-dot pants that you've pulled all the way up to your boobs.
Where was this commercial legally aired? Until I saw the late-90s PC, I was wondering how pre-1970 women were looking so hot.
As for VI Lenin, I believe former revolutionaries are only used for selling cookies. To quote the Garibaldi Biscuit adverts: Revolutionary biscuits of Italy / Rise up out of your box / You have nothing to lose but your wafers / Yum yum yum yum yum...
Aw, but those pool-chillin' grandmas totally have style. Cigarette commercials are so judgmental.
ReplyDeleteGuys, I think there's a subliminal message in this song that's trying to make me smoke cigarettes...

ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever seen a portrait of Vladimir Lenin in a cigarette commercial before.

I'm pretty sure this is a parody, since cigarette ads have been banned from TV since the '70s. Also, I recognize clips from several other ads...

Tar: the ultimate fashion statement.

ReplyDeleteI really like how she threw the roses into that woman's face there at the end. She's got STYLE!
ReplyDeleteI had assumed that this was some sort of industry promo, rather than something that was used to actually advertise to consumers, but I don't know.
ReplyDeletewas that Tasha Yar?
