LMAO! the whole video is just WRONG!

 

[L.A.Woman85]

that CANNOT be a real campaign, can it???

or a real photographer???

 

[Yendor]

To be honest im not sure, but American Apparel has been known to use famous p*rn stars in their campaigns so maybe it is. either way i just think the whole thing is hilarious


--edit: seems like its a spoof by Funny Or Die. Lmao

 

[chicandcool]

^ I hope it's a spoof. Cause it would be seriously disturbing if it was an actual campaign.

 

[kahlilg]

wow, using trans people to make a joke. great.

Provocative ads usually aren't really offensive to me.

To me it's just art.

Back in the ancient times, the nude body was something of beauty, both in men and women.

Go to Italy you will see many sculptures either half or full frontal naked. Go to an art museum and you will see many works of art showcasing sex or nudity.

Sex is natural and beautiful.

It's a shame that sex has been made to be dirty or shameful.

As long as the models are over 18 and consenting, I'm fine with it.

 

[CaitlinC]

I love this ad.

Showcases all sexualities equally, which is great in my opinion.

Love is love in the end.

the new A|X campaign; perhaps they should have put a shirt on one of the guys so it would look more like an embrace rather than foreplay

this new campaign is very disturbing! I actually felt uncomfortable watching.

The kid was totally being exploited and treated as some circus freak by the photographer.

 

[crow_watcher]

OK. So this is a born female acting to be transgenered as a spoof to something?

 

[Yendor]

^theyre poking fun at Amercan Apparel. Its a man.

 

[MyNameIs]

^You sure? How did he get those boobs then? I thought it was a female?

Either way, pretty funny.

 

[Yendor]

Oh my God lol. He's a transvestite, he takes female hormones and grows boobs and probably had a breast augmentation to boot.

 

[MyNameIs]

Oh, lmao @ me. I thought it was an actual female, and they just stuffed her pants and drew a mustache.

 

[crow_watcher]

^You're correct and I thought the same thing. I've seen her in another video talking. She's definitely a real female. The American Apparel video is all a joke.

 

[Yendor]

Are you kidding? The girl looks like Ron Jeremy lmao

 

[crow_watcher]

^The woman in the AA parody ad is comedian Ilana Glazer. You can see one of her videos here:

[FRANCY ITALY]

Gee, another car commercial, they're transmitted on TV all the time. It's a very stupid advertisement, no ? And it's understandable why it was blocked.
