This isn’t creepy at all. To plug its aggressively pink N8 smartphone, Nokia’s produced “Freedom,” a music video that Influencia describes as “a mix of Lady Gaga, Rihanna and The Exorcist.” Its frontliner is none other than Mattel’s Barbie, circa 1950s or around the time the pointy bra was born.
Barbie appears in all her plasticine antiquated glory, outfitted in a pink the same shade as the N8, sometimes with garishly coloured hair, other times with Sharpie tattoos, at least twice with Nokia signs covering her mammaries, and a few times — disturbingly enough — lounged on top of an N8 amid a circle of her own disembodied limbs.
Oh, the Finnish! Will it save Nokia’s slumping mobile sales? Wacker shit has happened.
Video and making-of (very Coraline) below.
