Weeeedoggie! We got us a real controversy! Calvin Klein's new scent, "Secret Obsession" commercial has been banned by the U.S. broadcast networks (thank you, Janet Jackson) and most of the broadcast stations. Cable networks will probably air it - they don't answer to the FCC. Apparently there really is an FCC. That could be the subject for another post.
Anyway, in the commercial, actress Eva Mendes is slowly rolling around on an unmade bed, whispering how she loves this stuff, the perfume. Oh, did I mention that she's naked? Yup, except for a towel, over the lower neighborhood. We also get to see 25% of her left nipple. See for yourself, click here to see the commercial. Offended, anyone? Actually, I'm more offended by Viagra, Cialis & Levitra commercials. Again, the subject for another post.
My opinion? I think it's a nice break from the violence and dead bodies of prime time TV. Also, for 28 seconds I'm back in 1975.
