The That's A Point In Her Favour Post.

USA TODAY on Superbowl ads, which this year have a fair amount of ladies including Kim Kardashian:

When she was a kid, she says, she used to watch the Super Bowl with her family in order to see the commercials. Her favorite Super Bowl commercials, she says, are the Pepsi ads from the 1990s that starred supermodel Cindy Crawford. Now that Kardashian — also a model — is staring in her own Super Bowl spot, she says, "I'm not replacing her. I'm just joining the club."

I'm with her. On both counts.

The A Lot More Than 35 People Agree Post.

In a 1991 Pepsi commercial, supermodel Cindy Crawford steps out of a red Lamborghini at a remote roadside rest stop. Wearing a white tank top and denim cut-off shorts, she flicks her hair and saunters over to a vending machine, where she buys--and drinks--a can of ice-cold Pepsi. She's oblivious to the two young boys who are watching, spellbound.

The Pepsi commercial, which was created by Omnicom agency BBDO and last aired during the Super Bowl 17 years ago, was rated as the sexiest TV commercial among 35 viewed by eight judges from the advertising industry.

So sayeth Forbes.com (also making the cut: ads for Levi's with Daniela Pestova, Calvin Klein with Brooke Shields - yes, that one - and, of course, beer and perfume spots). The complete article is here.

...and the remake.

Sure they were looking at the Pepsi can, in either version. Sure they were.
