Exercise bike not included.

For the people who don't know. This woman is from an exercise bike commercial(Peleton meme) where she looks like she is being held at gun point the whole time.
Im down for spinoffs and animated "what if" shorts in which instead of a peloton, she receives the wall mirror thing
Great move by the marketing department and seems like it would have been ridiculously cheap to make too.
This was me. Was fucking confused until I looked up the context. With context though this ad is amazing.
I saw the previous ad but had no idea it was the same person until I read the replies here.
So I take it this is her "escaping" and having some drinks because she's been through some shit?
She has friends watching out for her and caring for her, though.
I was gonna say, liquor commercials here almost never show someone actually drinking it
yes. The joke is that she is with her girlfriends at a bar after breaking up with the abusive Peloton boyfriend.
Context
Note: She has a wedding band in the Peloton commercial, but not the Aviation Gin one.
Are the same requirements/guidelines that TV ads have extend to Twitter? There's no disclaimers or text of any kind so I assume it's not held to the same standards or necessarily even considered an ad.
That would more or less wreck an actor's ability to make money - you could do it for like Dell vs HP but for this scenario the peloton ad director would have to be vaguely aware he made Saw: The Cardio Room
Only thing that they could possibly do that for would be like competing exercise equipment, maybe a gym.
I was thinking about that. I guess because she doesn't say anything and everything is implied she can do it. Might not get a call back from pelton.
normally these kinds of ads don't blow up. Nobody expected this level of viral knowledge of the commercial to the point where other marketing campaigns with that actress could piggy back.
This is great. I hope they can get it on tv.
"There ya go."
"This is gonna be a fun night."
I think all of their lines were really well delivered.
"There ya go."
"This is gonna be a fun night."
It's just a bad, creepy ad when her selfie and performative display to us the audience comes into play. That perspective shift gets creepy, and becomes a problem of copywriting. This thread is worth reading fully through:
The two friends silently motioning to one another to snap the girl out of her thousand yard stare. 😂😂😂😂😂
