Slate writer Daniel Brook thinks Disney’s outrage over Miley Cyrus’ recent Vanity Fair photo shoot might be slightly disingenuous, considering an underwear campaign they had in China, featuring a pretty sexualized image of a pre-teen: I was walking from...




The good people at Jimmy Choo would like you to know that women are empowered. They no longer feel compelled to buy into the idea that there’s a “Prince Charming” that’s waiting in the wings to sweep her off...




We guess Italian nonnas must have a lot in common with Cuban abuelitas because this commercial (almost) made us want to give our grandmother a call. And reminisce about how she helped foster guilty feelings concerning food! Yay! Pass...




We’ll cop to being grossly immature, which is probably why we don’t usually get the subtle wit and thoughtful social commentary that permeate most of VH1’s programming. We thought “Rock of Love” was just about Miller High Life-soaked ladies...




Mexicans! A fiery people seething with passion and rage, are they not? And they sure do love to drink! Also, the have a lust for conquest passed down from the Spanish ancestors and the Aztecs, who would kill other...




If you’ve ever felt your melanin was getting in the way of allowing your inner beauty to shine through, well. You’re not alone. Women in Thailand have learned from commercials that they have the exact same problem. “Smooth E....




This commercial for Coke Light (which tastes just like Diet Coke, if it were made of dreams and unicorn tears) is making us think that perhaps a little trip to the confessional is in order. Because it beats the...

The Colombian government has taken to using advertising campaigns in an effort to get guerrilla members, like those in Farc, to leave the nation’s jungles and re-enter civilian life: To reach the guerrillas, radio has proved the best means...




Shakira is the newest face and mane for Sunsilk hair products. We much prefer Shakira’s black dreadlocked phase, back when her songs weren’t Beyonce’s, but we guess peroxide blondes are ok, too. We like things that are highly flammable....




Actor Luis Guzman isn’t afraid to get cheesy for a role schilling Vermont cheddar; we’re not above using lame puns to describe it. So, hey, why is he selling cheese anyway? Maybe their research showed that Latinos cook with...




A sales consultancy firm found that, when it comes to buying cars, many prospective Latino buyers just want to feel secure. Is that so wrong? Well, maybe if it’s in a Scion XB: Strategic Vision found that Latinos look...
