Nando’s Little Hotties Campaigns Escapes Censorship

Australian burger joint, Nando’s, has long pushed the boundaries of good taste when it comes to their advertising. You may remember the commercial the brand ran a few years ago in which a woman with rather large breasts complained to her server there were no fries on her plate when, in fact, there were. She just couldn’t see them because her breasts stuck out so far they blocked her view of the plate.

This summer the brand pushed boundaries again with its Little Hotties campaign which got into hot water with Australia’s Advertising Standards Authority. A radio ad voiceover included the copy, “Tight buns. Great breasts. And oh so saucy. These little hotties have got it all. Print and online executions featured a woman dressed in burlesque wear.

While the campaign received a fair amount of complaints, the ASA ruled the campaign was not in breach of their code of ethics. Nando’s Marketing Director Kim Russel defended the campaign saying the work was meant to be “sassy not sexy.”

They learned to build chosen family with the same seriousness and commitment that most people reserve only for blood relatives, treating friendship as infrastructure rather than luxury.

The man who used to fix everything in the house now calls his son to ask how to attach a photo to an email, and the fifteen minutes of patient explanation isn’t technical support — it’s the reversal of every childhood moment where competence flowed in the other direction, and both men can feel the grid shifting underneath them

I’m 73 and my husband leaves every surface destroyed when he cooks and then cleans it all afterward in one heroic effort — and I clean as I go and present a meal from a kitchen that looks like nobody used it — and we’ve been having the same argument about this for 44 years without realizing that it’s not about dishes, it’s about two fundamentally different philosophies of how to move through chaos, and the kitchen is just the room where the philosophies collide three times a day
