Hola blog readers, I have been procrastinating everything today, I have a math exam in a week which I am not prepared for, furthermore I am missing my ID card needed for said exam. I have an essay to write and 2 plays to read. Instead, I watched the Food Network, which I find secretly addicting. I am alarmed to find, though, that there is a show called Cupcake Wars. Yikes. This cupcake trend is very alarming. I have to say, until I recently watched all 32 Episodes of Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares (U.K.) I didn't even know there were trends in food, although, this is quite logical in fact. Anyway, I feel kind of overwhelmed by this cupcake business. First of all, I'm not particularly fond of them and secondly, it seems like a lot of work for a cake that it will take me a minute to eat. However, maybe I am just being cynical.
Anyway to the point. Have you all seen the Prada Candy Ad?It's been around for a few months now. Here it is in case you missed it.
Argh. I really hate this. Let me count the ways. I can't. The voice is so weird? What is she saying? I don't like the make-up. I'm rambling on, but this ad just doesn't make any sense to me. Why is she shouting "I don't care". I wish I didn't care about this advert, but I do, it's too much. I feel like when it comes to fashion you (or at least I) can't really criticize things, more or less because great artistic minds designed the clothes, or in this case, ad and I am just an English Student/Server, albeit one who reads several fashion magazines/blogs a week, so who am I to judge? Well, whatever the case may be, I, and it appears the commenters in youtube, don't like this advert, not at all.
...The thing about commercials is that they are supposed to appeal to their audience. Did this one? I think the audience was mostly confused, confused and annoyed.
