AIBU to wonder WTAF Brad Pitt is banging on about?

[girlynut]

Just seen the new Chanel No.5 ad. Erm...

Perhaps it's just too profound for me to understand.

For an actor that came across so badly. He looked like he was a random person dragged off the street and told to say that twaddle.

He looks like a student from drama school performing his monologue in front of the rest of the class.

I initially thought it was Chanel no 5 for men

He's become a bit too successful at the "I look like a tramp because my beauty is such a curse" thing and now he just looks like a tramp.

Philip glennister though. Hubba.

he's not attractive in any way

the advert lowers the brand terribly

can't quite explain why I dislike it so much, but for Chanel, it looks cheap, even though he was paid so much to do it

I would expect an advert filled to the brim with aesthetics/nature/beauty/quirky/luxe images to denote that Chanel is even better than all of those

or something

I've just managed to persuade DH that we need to start watching the Life On Mars box set for the seventeen time. And of course we will then need to rewatch Ashes To Ashes from start to finish.

I rather like Philip.

I'd like Chris Noth in a Chanel advert.

or a tampon advert

or a floor cleaner advert (irriated that the Flash advert shows NOT A SINGLE MAN) moppimg the floor, but that's another thread entirely

To be fair, it's not as bad as that bloody Keira Knightley on the fecking moped one. Makes me vair vair sweary whenever I see it

Yuk, the hair .

I a thusly cant watch the whole thing. I have a really acute embarrassment reflex and after about five seconds I feel so embarrassed on his behalf for its awfulness I have to stop.

I'm sure the 6.5 million helps him get over his embarrassment reflex.

I love that Guardian article- "shaggy-haired with a David Brent beard, desperately trying to inject hammy profundity into lines such as, "The world turns and we turn with it..."

So true.

Oh god I just managed it all

Is he talking about mad ange?

She's yoko Ono isn't she?

I thought it was a spoof.

Do perfumes really need advertising? Or was it for the Kaiser's benefit ...

I could offer to not wash my hair for a week and I would do it for £6.50.

I'll put in a quid, Ivana, chuck the shampoo away.

MrsT you're on.

I quite like my men a bit dirty, but Brad just doesn't do anything for me.

The ad makes my bum cheeks clench I'm so embarrassed for him

Yanbu and be looks awful. Cut the hair (ok, shave it off) lose the beard and 3/4's of a stone and be would be hot property once more.
