Oracle of Delphi
Craig HillI LOVE This Ad!! (Bonds Mash)
March 10th 2008 21:30
...and could someone please start up a 'So You Think You Can Dance?' blog?? Please, please. I can't seriously be the only Orbler addicted to this show?
Okay, yes, it's just another 'reality TV' competition with hype and stereotype but it's fun! And the dancers are just so brilliant. (and I like 'The Amazing Race' too. So shoot me with a bamboo)
Oh to fly through the air like that...I may be a Rugby-ite but I also am a Friend of the Ballet. The seemingly obvious dichotomy is also the similarity of grace under power. Albeit executed in different ways.
My favourite TV Babble-r is MIA (well...she's BIA...Busy In Action) so someone's gotta be startin' somethin. And soon. I really need to 'discuss' why;
a) Jason I-want-to-be-Rod-Stewart-and- do-you-think-I'm-sexy The Judge keeps thanking that choreographer Jason The Second Coming?
b) Matt Hatter Lee looks about 12?
c) Natalie whatshername talks with a smirk?
d) does that dancer wear her pants down by her ankles? well okay, at her pelvis but they really look like they could fall down any second.
e) didn't Henry cut his hair off before?? He should win based on best transformation!! (but he is an exceptional dancer)
See? Important stuff.
...but I digress.
I love this ad.
I saw it during the show and it made me smile and want to dance around in my colourful Bonds understuff.
Disregard the fact that the dancers are all lean and jiggle free. They're dancers. To be in an ad, they have to be professional dancers ergo lean and jiggle free because as we all know, dancing burns calories...and revs up endorphins.
I expect to hear the usual barrage of contempt...especially and surprisingly from males. Guys, please. Spare me the token feminism. It doesn't make you look enlightened. Just makes you look so new age eighties. Not a good vintage.
Women...I ask you to look at this ad not with judgement (because there are some comments like that on YouTube) but with empathy.
Put yourself smack bang in this attitude. It is such a joyous ad. Do we really care that they're half naked with not an ounce of cellulite? Can't we see just them as being fully draped with delight?

Please Note:
Although I have reopened the Comments Section, I cannot guarantee that I will respond quickly/as soon as possible/ever to any comment/s left.
I very much appreciate your participation and comments but blogging interaction has become the anagram Louis Vuitton of time. It's a luxury item.
I will do my best to respond when possible and to answer any questions asap.
Thank you for your time.
