The Matalan Advert

Just seen the new Matalan advert with Denise Van Outen, the evil one from Hollyoaks, Kate Thornton, the Scottish loose woman and a pussycat doll standing by a swimming pool. It is SO obvious that none of them would be seen dead in these clothes and are simply doing it for the cash!!
Is this some kind of reverse advert where the celebs look so uncomfortable that it makes us notice the advert and buy the clothes? The celebs involved just look like bullshitters pretending to love the cheap threads, laughing at us minions and counting the profits.
AIBU in thinking this is the cringiest advert ever??

Yanbu- dvo looks like she's wearing a potato sack in that dress.

It's a total cringe especially when they are discussing the amazing properties of the man-made fibre cold shoulder top that Kelly Brook is wearing. They are trying to be like QVC for Matalan. The bizarre combination of Z list celebs is hilarious though.

The Matalan adverts are dreadful. DVO is so wooden. The bloke from Hollyoaks too, hilarious.

Denise van Outen has been advertising Matalan clothes for ages, and it’s all so fake. Her tone, the other ‘models’ all the ‘ooo, I live what you’re wearing’ what a load of bollocks!

Slight overuse of “nice” as a descriptor in “The Show” 😂

'A short sleeved shirt with a lovely pattern on it'

Brilliant.

Agree it's crap, they can't hide it either, you can see on their faces they're doing it for the money!
