In A Twist, Times Square Promotion Includes Fully Clothed Woman

New York’s Times Square has always been a haven for the racy, the clothing-challenge, the buff body. There’s been National Underwear Day. There’s been stripping models . There’s been models prancing about in a psuedo-living room billboard. There’s been gold digging Bridezillas cake diving in wedding dresses. There’s been crotch grabbing. There’s been gigantic versions of porn star Jenna Hameson. There’s even been humping bunnies.

After all of that, it’s kind of refreshing to see a fully-clothed, middle-aged woman who isn’t 120 pounds promoting something as well as offering advice to tourists. Yes, Snapple Lady, Wendy, is in town to man (woman?) a booth called the Big Apple Visitor Center helping people learn about the city’s best things and best places as well as, of course, the best stuff, Snapple. Hmm…a Times Square promotion that doesn’t include semi-naked hotties? Rad, dude. Rad.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
