That unnecessarily long out-of-season DSW ad showing ugly summer shoes in November
We need a club of people who talk to themselves aloud 😅
I feel the American Eagle backlash is such an American, woke-generation thing. It has nothing to do with her being white. It's about her looking good. (in their opinion at least) If this had been done only with a good-looking minority, would anyone have complained? And yes, of course, to be safe, they could've asked 3 different women for this same campaign with different backgrounds, and there would also not be any backlash. But god is this world oversensitive..
I think the American Eagle ad did exactly what it was meant to do. The insane amount of publicity their got from that campaign outweighs all of the people they put off. Your brand isn´t for everyone, and they know that. I think it´s one of the best ads of the year
Congratulations for reaching 100k on YouTube! 👏👏👏
Come on, J.Crew! They can do so much better than this. As a consumer I just want to see good quality clothes, styled well, on a real human body.
Hidden AI ad yeah? Smfh
Great video. And love Made Blanks. RIP JOHN KOO🙏🏾
Wow that Xgames logo is so bad. It’s like they forgot what the X stood for
X Games re-brand is an absolute travesty.
