The Super Bowl is kind of a de facto national holiday here in the states. It’s a day of over indulgence and screaming at the television and watching obscenely expensive advertising – oh, and some sportsballs. So, naturally, the day after is a bit of a national hangover day.
My favorite part of the Super Bowl? Three of the ads featured lesbian public figures (Ellen and Portia’s Amazon Alexa ad, Ashlyn Harris and Ali Krieger’s Budwesier ad, and Katie Sowers’ extended Microsoft ad).
My other favorite part? Shakira and Jennifer Lopez absolutely crush it during the halftime show. Quick reminder: Sharkira is 43 and JLo is 50. Oh, and if you don’t think all that Latino excellence on one stage together – not to mention that pointed imagery of children in light cages – went unnoticed. But, mostly, just damn. Now that’s ladies showing you how to put on a damn show. So enjoy it for the first time – or again, and again, and again. I’ve got to hydrate and find the Tums.
And I'll bet you're glad that Kansas won Dorothy?-)
ReplyDelete.It had so many good resistance elements
ReplyDeleteDid you notice the Latino kids in cages singing BORN IN THE USA and LETS GET LOUD surrounded by a giant illuminated Venus symbol? And the rope Shakira tied around her body while belly dancing?
Found the google ad regarding the elderly man who lost his wife and has early stage alzheimer's touching also.
