Thong-Clad Bootyliciousness to Increase Xbox Sales

tahitacora_video_game.jpg

How do you sell Xbox to teenage boys? By dressing an incredibly hot chick with an unbelievably amazing, ravishingly bootylicious ass of stunningly epic proportion in a drool-inducing thong and just film her sitting there playing the game. No need for pointless copy or lame narration. Just a hot ass and a camera. Simple, really.

Foursquare Has Swagger Like Us

PleaseRobMe aside, we all love Foursquare, right? Come on admit it. You know you do. You obsess over telling everyone where you are. You invent places just to get points. You covet badges. Admit it. It's a disease. But it's nothing new. It's just an extension of the Twitter disease which made us all think people actually give a shit what we're doing every single second of the day.

Enter Badges Like Us, a fairly lame rap rendition of the location-based game. Check it. Catch the lyrics on the video's YouTube page.

Glass Harp Player Bring Musical Prowess to Skoda

While this looks totally unreal, this guy can, apparently, turn water-filled glasses into a full orchestral masterpiece. For automaker Skoda, Hamburg-based Leagas Delany tapped glass harp guy Peter Spatina to squeak out the musical background for a new commercial touting Skoda's new SUV.

Old Spice Man on A Horse Gets Love From John Denver

old_spice_horse_john_denver.jpg

We wish we could have unearthed this ourselves but credit goes to AdWeek's Barbara Lippert...or whomever sent it to her...for finding this semi-hilarious spoof of the Old Spice I'm on a Horse commercial. Folk singers Emily and Matt set the copy of the commercial to John Denver's You Fill Up My Senses.

This is just one of the many spoofs out there paying homage to this Wieden + Kennedy-created commercial. When a commercial - yea, a lowly commercial - spawns this sort of viral love, you know you've got a hit on your hands.
