It seems not a day goes by the Kardashian trio isn't in the news for one thing or another. Lately, though, they've been in advertising news quite a bit with their Sears Kardashin Kollection action. And, really, what's not to love? Khloe has deliciously curvaceous hips. Kim has gigantic, mouthwatering breasts. And Kourtney is just mezmerizingly hot beyond belief. It's enough to make a guy want to...oops...sorry...this is a business site. We keep things in our pants around here.
Anyway, the Kardashian sisters can be seen bursting out of their lingerie in a new ad for their Kollection. Enjoy.
This year, mom's can switch things up a bit and urge the man in their life to offer them something a bit different this Mother's Day. Mr. Clean is out with a promotion that aids women and men in getting and giving a Mother's Day gift with substance; a maid.
Of course, all of this is a bit sexist. After all, Mr. Clean is making a big assumption. They're assuming the woman in the relationship is the clean one. That's not always the case. Buy, hey, let's not get our panties in a bunch. Let's just appreciate the gesture.

Sports Illustrated model Marissa Miller has been tapped by Buick to lend a bit of sexiness to its Enclave. This behind the scenes look at the creation of the commercial gives us a glance at what Buick is going for. It's all about the distracting qualities of beauty. Although, if the commercial is to be taken literally, the Enclave is destined to cause disaster wherever it is seen.
What we love most about this behind the scenes look is the ceaseless verbal analogies the ad's creators spew likening the hotness of Miller to the hotness of the car. Of course their comments are politely couched and devoid of any tongue wagging that might normally coincide with the description of a supermodel.

In a world...where ad agencies can't do the movie trailer-style ad concept enough, we have new work from IDEO and Hungry Man for Samsung. Introducing us to three characters, Fiona Freeze, Loading Ball Larry and Battery Brutus, each of the three commercials highlights the computing nightmares we have all experienced; the spinning ball, the frozen screen and the battery dying before its time.
All this seemingly end of the world drama is, of course, to inform us we should all be using Samsung memory which, presumably, is more powerful and uses less energy. It's an effective representation of the concept but also a tellingly sad indication our lives are ruled by technology and we are slaves to its idiosyncrasies.

So Mike's Hard Lemonade is out with a new campaign and they are teasing it with clues on Twitter which lead to a Facebook page on which...there are links to three new ads...along with an image of a gorilla, an astronaut, a hyena and a very sexy pair of legs. Sadly, none of the ads feature the sexy legs.
So we complained about that to Mike's Hard Lemonade Social Media Marketing Coordinator Alex Levine. She said, "Just you wait." To which, we said, "Tease!" To which she answered, "#gulity." We like Alex!
So on to the three spots. They all begin the same. Two guys are playing golf. One guys knocks the ball in the whole while another hands him a Mike's Hard Lemonade and says, "Sometimes you gotta change things up." And that's exactly what happens. In very odd ways. Watch all three below.

Isn't the sole purpose of drinking Jagermeister to get trashed out of your mind? After all, what other purpose does the drink serve? It's not like it actually tastes good or anything. So why has the brand, for its first-ever U.S. TV campaign gathered together the likes of Keyshawn Johnson, Kerry King, Freddie Roach, Mike Lingerfelt, Mister Cartoon, Nathan Fletcher and recently inducted Rob Smets for an all out manly man-fest.
But...here's the thing. These guys are really successful. Are we to believe they actually still drink Jager as opposed to, oh, say, some fine scotch?
Oh wait. According to the press release, "Jägermeister is a strong drink for strong men, with strong bonds." OK. It all makes perfect sense now.
Anyway, the spot, created by LA-based Mistress, breaks today and can be seen on FX, Spike, Comedy Central, ESPN, Discovery and Fox Sports. Supporting the TV buy will be online efforts on Complex and VICE as well as outdoor

This is beyond hilarious. Popchips, with help from LA-based Zambezi, teamed up with Ashton Kutcher and, in one day, transformed Ashton into four different colorful characters - a flamboyant fashion designer, a sensitive Harley-loving biker, a new age hippie, and a Bollywood film producer.
The campaign promotes faux dating site, World Wide Lovers. The video leads to a Facebook page on which people can choose one of the four Ashton characters and have him deliver a message of love or, if things aren't quite so rosy on the relationship front, a Dear John message.
In addition to the online elements of the campaign, out-of-home will appear in six markets (Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco, Boston, Phoenix and Denver).
Be sure to check out additional video below which highlight each individual character.
