Page 3 Spoof Old Spice Ad - The woman you'd love your woman to be like

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that Sesame Street released their own take on the viral smash hit made famous by Isaiah Mustafa, well now The Sun newspaper have given us their own take on the ad. Although everyone maybe a little over this whole parody by now, I'm sure gentlemen YouTube viewers and reader of The Sun will not resist a peek at this surprisingly tame (by that I mean YouTube friendly) version titled - The woman you'd love your woman to be like (Below).

Guitar Hero 5 viral video - 'Naked Girls Get Interrupted'

This is a new video by Guitar Hero 5, promoting their upcoming game with a very different style. The video (See below) entitled 'Naked Girls Get Interrupted' sees four naked women strutting down the street along with Music Steve (your not so average male model), covered only by the titles of the songs featured in the game.



Video 1 - Guitar Hero 5 viral video “Naked Girls Get Interrupted”


The video is a spoof of a French Music Video which was very successful in the Viral Video Charts earlier in the year. The video for Make The Girl Dance 'Baby Baby Baby' (See below) saw a chain of girls similarly strutting to the sound of the music again with the lyrics of the song covering their dignity.

GM Spoof: GM Retardation advert

Last week I posted about the new GM advert (GM: Reinvention - New ad for New GM) entitled Reinvention. The commercial dedicated itself to ensuring that the public does not lose trust in the brand, following the news that they were filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Well... following this I was highlighted to the fact that there was a well edited spoof circulating shown below.

Supporting the spoof ad is an GM Retardation website exact replica of the new GM Reinvention website, obviously tweaked as expected highlighting users to fictitious Blogs, Twitter, Flickr, and Facebook accounts, with copy such as: "Pretend like you can be friends with us. We'll pretend too, and then we'll close down your dads car dealership".

Simpsons Adidas Tribute and Xbox 'House Party' experience

Last month I posted about the new campaign by Adidas celebrating 60 years of their Adidas Originals collections, the campaign features a brilliant ad which takes place at a house party (the theme of their “60 Years of Soles and Stripes” at Milan Fashion week), and brings together a host of stars including David Beckham, Katy Perry, and Missy Elliott to the music of 'Beggin' by MADCON.



Using this concept to celebrate 20 years of originality Sky 1 have spoofed the Adidas creative for The Simpsons using clips from the show to recreate the ‘House Party’ TV ad. It has even been added to the Adidas Originals YouTube Channel with the message “As they say, imitation is the best form of flattery, so we tip our hats to Sky 1, Homer, Bart, Marge, Lisa and Maggie for their celebration of originality”.



As an extension to their ongoing campaign Adidas have also just released their next phase of the campaign with a digital initiative within Xbox live. The Xbox Live activity features interactive video-in-video technology (which enables users to click at various points of the video to view additional footage) and as well as editorial spots. The Xbox activity will also give users the opportunity to download snippets of the video featuring celebrities, themes, and gamer pictures (including stars such as DMC, Dynamo, David Beckham, Missy Elliot, Estelle, and the Ting Tings).

IFAW - Spoof Cadbury Gorilla advert

The International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) has release a viral spoof remake of the Cadbury Gorilla advert, which features a Gorilla-less drum kit, with the caption 'A world without Gorillas is closer than you think'.

This clever and very simple remake puts across an extremely clear message in a way that is eerily impactful. Take a look yourselves below...

Apple hits out against Microsoft "I'm a PC" ad campaign

Following the news of the Microsoft $300 million makeover, Apple has released their own ad. The ad hits out with the claim that Microsoft is spending the majority of their budget on advertising, instead of investing the money back into Vista.

This is certainly not the first time brands have released ads, or viral messaging to tarnish another brand’s lime light, and will not be the last. Take a look at some of the previous efforts by brands (or the general public) below:
