Xience dancing chick commercial

I was frankly disgusted with the commercial. It shows this bimbo lounging in a barka, looking all strung out...like she's on heroin, then she pops her xience caffeine/speed fruit beverage and starts dancing like a fly girl/pole dancing slut.

Now don't get me wrong. I like girls that grind as much as the next man with functioning gonads but WFT has this got to do with performance supplements except trying to tell young women that if they want to dance like strippers, they're going to just have to pop a fizzy soda/red bull style drink.

And the worst part about the women in the xience ads is...athletically, they suck. They are not even hard bodies. Get a fitness champion for Christ's sake! Get a friggin female mixed martial artist! Get Erin Toughill or something! Enough of the bling bling and start advertising something you can actually deliver....(Unless what you're saying is the only thing you CAN deliver is ads with TnA and bling...)

Do I have anything against your product? not really. It might be the greatest stuff around...but we'll never know it if you keep showing us this schlock.

The only thing with getting a female fighter is that Xyience would probably want them to do some cheesy striptease and most wouldn't lower themselves to do that. Of course there are always the ones who will, but they usually aren't that good. Erin Toughill might be down for it, but who knows.

The point is - it got your attention. I agree that it's silly because I highly doubt anyone wants to buy it after seeing the commercial. They just want to bang the girl. That's the problem with the sex sells advertising method. It only sells if it can GET you sex. It doesn't sell as much if it just shows it to you.

What's phenomenal shape? She can go two hours on a treadmill? So what? I know 50 girls within a three block radius from me that can do that. Let's see her guard pass....THEN we'll talk.

strikingly beautiful girl..but these commercials are pretty inapropriate..i mean, what if your little boy sees that? if i had a kid, he would never see that fucking shit..now you may argue that 'they shouldnt be watching spike in the first place' well what is wrong with letting your child watch the fights with you? father and son? shit i watched major boxing PPV's with my father growing up and there were no strippers during the commercial breaks..you wonder why you see these little girls that are 11 and 12 dressing like fucking whores..i dont like it man, know what i mean?
