With Chris Hemsworth
I just took a video of it, so I have it with me on my phone at all times!
His voice too!

Eh? Whats the unreasonable part of this to discuss? What would you like to discuss about it? For example that its ok to objectify a man, but not women?

I was thinking a discussion on how captivating some of these perfume ads are. Beautiful people, both men and women, combined with the music.

Chanel - Marion Cotillard
Boss- Chris Hemsworth
Zendaya- Lancôme
Dior- Charlize Theron
Julia Roberts - Lancôme
Dior- Natalie Portman

Yes it’s soaked into the mattress. I have vanish spray but I’m not holding out much hope 😢

This thread is weird 🤣

Period by Chanel

What the heck, as this is a free for all I'd like to say I've only just discovered sainsbury's butter puff cheese biscuits. They're delicious but messy.

ClickandForget · 12/12/2020 23:22

They'd definitely mess up a bed.

Wow this thread went weird quick.

I was just coming on to say YANBU op, he is utterly gorgeous. Thanks for sharing the video I hadn’t seen it yet.

Tinkerbell456 · 13/12/2020 05:24

Chris Hemsworth is gorgeous, no ifs, buts or maybes! Sadly, at 56, pretty much old enough to be his Mum🥲

Tinkerbell456 · 13/12/2020 05:25

Also, by the way, I don’t get the relevance of the period stained bedding either. Does Mumsnet offer laundry advice?

PsychoSyd · 13/12/2020 06:09

@Tinkerbell456 it does on the Housekeeping board Smile

FrauleinF · 13/12/2020 06:27

Saw this for the first time last night. My husband's first comment was "Maybe Aldi should do a knock off version and get his brother in to do the advert?"

Longdistance · 13/12/2020 06:35

Chris Hemsworth 🤤😍

Tinkerbell456 · 13/12/2020 06:38

@PsychoSid:😬

Gardeniaofdelights · 13/12/2020 08:04

@Underadesk it’s interesting that you see the Boss advert as objectifying. I think it’s actually presenting a picture of power / self-possession / control etc, rather than presenting him as a sexual object.

Tinkerbell456 · 13/12/2020 08:19

Re.: objectifying. I think that CH is quite happy to be objectified. He has made a whole lot more than he would have as a carpenter, and look at the roles he takes on.

ihatethecold · 13/12/2020 08:42

This thread has made me chuckle so much this morning. Grin

UrghThisIsHard · 13/12/2020 08:47

This thread is wild. 😂

Chris is sensational. Agree that the ad is not objectifying. Those cheese biscuits sound incredible.

Bengal12 · 13/12/2020 09:02

Perfect pre-Xmas activity: eating Sainsbury’s cheese biscuits while watching the BOSS commercial.
And to prevent the slight randomness if this thread: yesterday while driving through a ver dark country Lane I figured out that if I push the long beam lever down it will stay on! Up until then I was cursing my car as I thought you had to push it up and hold it up. 😂

He looks like he has a lovely family life.
There’s a video of him surfing with his daughter on his back.

Wait until you find the little stick that will hold your bonnet up for you.
