To think she says "tuna"

57 replies

myBumJuiceSmellsLikeRoses · 10/03/2021 10:59

Help me out kind MN'ers.

I'm talking about the Dior J'Adore perfume ad...

Right at the start, before the woman starts randomly saying "Flash---light" over the music. There is one single word.

Now I've heard "tuna" I can't hear anything else!

Is it just me?

It's chin up I think? But I'll hear Tuna everytime now

pickingdaisies · 10/03/2021 11:03

OP what have you done????
That's another shite advert ruined forever Grin

RootyT00t · 10/03/2021 11:12

It's j'adore, no?

GreenSlide · 10/03/2021 11:13

I never noticed this before! Pretty sure she says chin up. Weird.

I thought I was going mad last night watching tv and though she said tuna!
Thanks OP, I’m glad it’s not just me Grin

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 10/03/2021 11:28

It sounds like “chin up”.

NoWayHosier · 10/03/2021 11:29

We say this every time it's on! We call it Eau de Poisson in our house.

VerityWibbleWobble · 10/03/2021 11:32

😂 it's definitely chin up but it will forever more be tuna now.

I hear tune up!

Gerla · 10/03/2021 11:36

I hear tune up too.

Velvian · 10/03/2021 11:38

I hear "Tuna" too. I couldn't work out what it was meant to be, so thanks for that. I'll see if I can hear "chin up" now.

Even so, it's not the craziest perfume advert.

We're also convinced that the lyrics to the Billy Ocean classic 'Love Really Hurts Without You' are:

Baby, love really hurts without you,
Love really hurts without you,
And it's breaking my heart,
The wanking I do.

Which actually is quite logical. Have a listen.

Rocking around the Christmas Tree.... She sings "later we'll have some fucking pie" at 30 seconds in.

We crease up every Christmas at this

NancyPickford · 10/03/2021 11:46

I’ve been trying to figure out what she says too. Cloth-eared husband says it’s “j’adore” which it plainly isn’t. I never thought of tuna or tune up. Will listen extra closely tonight. It’s annoying.

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 10/03/2021 11:50

God it does sound like tuna!

It’s supposed to be “chin up” I’m sure, but it really sounds like tuna!

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 10/03/2021 11:50

@anamazingfind my Mum always thought it was “fucking pie” 😂

HarrietOh · 10/03/2021 11:52
Hmmm I can sort of see it but then the 'p' sound at the end is quite distinctive?
alwaysonadiet1 · 10/03/2021 12:10

It's part of their 'chin up' campaign.

Butteredtoast55 · 10/03/2021 12:16

I always thought it was
Fashion. ...pie, pie, pie

Funky pie for me. Always wondered what the hell funky pie was Grin
dementedpixie · 10/03/2021 12:26

I hear Tuna too, you are not alone!

MasterBeth · 10/03/2021 12:26

“Tune up.”

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 10/03/2021 12:27

Well as long as it doesn't smell like tuna. Grin. Mind you it sounds more like Tune up to me.
