FOX, Anheuser-Busch Get Cold Feet, Cancel Jackson Boob Joke Spot

An Anheuser-Busch Bud Light spot poking fun at last year’s wardrobe malfunction, set to air during the Super Bowl, will not be seen after FOX and Anheuser-Busch execs met to discuss the potential backlash. In the spot, a man, backstage at last year’s half time show, uses Jackson’s dress, hanging over a chair, to get a better grip opening his bottle of Bud Light. This apparently damages the dress. No doubt, this spot will be released on the web anyway for all to see.

Anyone over at DDB Worldwide that wants to get that ball rolling, feel free.

Cornell researcher Vanessa Bohns has spent years studying why people agree to requests they’d rather decline, and her research consistently finds that people dramatically overestimate the social cost of saying no, which means most of the exhaustion of over-committing gets paid for a consequence that was never really on the table
