Is There A Nuclear War Going On In Brad Pitt's Chanel No. 5 Commercial?
I'm not sure a nuclear holocaust is the proper background to get people excited about perfume. The last ten seconds I think show nuclear strikes around the world.

He needs a haircut and a shave. He used to be so handsome but has really let himself go lately.
ReplyDeleteThat's really bad. Who would want to buy it based on that ad?
ReplyDeleteHe used to be my #1 hot man ever since I saw Cool World in the theater but I don't think he looks hot OR very Chanelly here. Was he the blind about being forced to do a commercial bc he even seems uncomfortable.
ReplyDeleteWow! Horrible! Worst ad I've ever seen!!!
ReplyDeleteHe is laughing all the way to the bank though.
Lolll just as I posted my disappointment two others beat me to it! It's so bad! Dior rules fragrance commercials.
ReplyDeleteThat is some of the worst acting I've seen in awhile.
ReplyDeleteYeah, he looks like he's in an intermediate acting class in the Valley, and this is his "piece" for the day.
ReplyDeleteHe's definitely Acting with a capital A.
Ugh I can't stand him. He is so smug, and thinks he is so smart and deep. I can't believe people believe his crap
ReplyDeleteUgh. That's all I have to say.
ReplyDeleteBut is this going to show in the U.S, or will it be dubbed into French or something. Shiz sounds a lot better once you Que c'est dur de vivre pour Christ all over it.
ReplyDelete*programming note. I took French at a Christian high school. It didn't get me very far in Paris :)
yuck. he's pretty haggard.
ReplyDeleteI like a guy that looks a little rough and he's definitely my type. That said, I don't think the ad works. I kind of get the connection because Chanel No. 5 has been around FOREVER, but overall, I think it's a Fail.
ReplyDeletethis is what i imagine a community college theater class audition looks like.
ReplyDeletedlisted said it best: ' Coco's grave just spun to the surface.'
Sunny, so true! Shiz in French or Italian always sounds better.
ReplyDeleteSo you didn't learn all the fun words, like Merde!
I forgot about that BI. This looks to be the winner! How much did that blind say he lost, bc damn this was a bad, bad "performance".
Does he need the money that badly?
ReplyDeleteThat was dumb. Maybe he and Taylor Momsen could do one together.
ReplyDeleteThe image is France at night from space....
ReplyDeleteNo nuclear war.
Henri, le Chat Noir-way better actor for an existential crisis piece. Henri can totally out-act Brad!
ReplyDelete@dia
ReplyDeleteI know THAT word in at least 4 different languages! :)
I don't know if that was meant to be finny, but I do recommend watching it with Vivaldi's Mandolin Concerto over it. It ADDs to the effect ;)

///and wasn't ever a fan of chanel no 5, but rather coco chanel. All my makeup was chanel, but that was pre my LSD days (at 16 I awoke), when I realized make up is just a lighter form of making oneself up to look like a clown. I haven't worn make up since.
ReplyDelete///Brad (aka AJ's bt) is a good looking guy, but this commersh is Terrible
////haven't overshared in a while and felt the urge ;)
ReplyDeleteahh the joys of hyper-ness set in via chai tea.
Henri, Le Chat Noir, lampoons the very crap this commercial is trying to be.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0M7ibPk37_U
Brad please, stop humping Angie's leg and go brush up on some acting lessons.
ReplyDeleteThat is the worst commercial ever! He looks like he is trying to be all deep thoughts - but just no on the whole thing!! What happened to hot Brad?
ReplyDeleteI understand why he's doing the commercial..easy money, but what is Chanel getting out of it, besides an un-washed ex- sex symbol. What a waste of good money.
ReplyDeleteWith him looking off to the side / into the distance as he soliloquyizes (ha ha not really a word, I know), my first thought was "Derek Zoolander!!!"
ReplyDeletenot impressed.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or is he becoming Jeff Bridges?
ReplyDeleteHere's what happens: Advertiser blows their whole budget on a celebrity spokesperson, then there's no $ left for production values. Celebrity demands creative control over content, ends up writing it themselves, and it SUCKS.
ReplyDeleteHappens often. This is just a stunningly stupid example of it!
This dirty dude will make women want to buy what he's endorsing for their own men? Ugggg...don't think so. He looks OLD and dirty.
ReplyDeleteI can't help it, I think he looks hot, but he needs to just stand there.
ReplyDeletePlease. Don't. Talk.
Thank you.
There is no such thing as a good perfume commercial. This one just adds another example to that list.
ReplyDeleteWine and liquor commercials also tend to be expensive and senseless, and I can't understand why.
too old, too scruffy, too worn..this is Chanel, Paris, the city of lights, romance, pearls, silk,
ReplyDeletethis is Brad Pitt blunt smoker father of six..unwashed..
I think Brad's a good looking guy...but I honestly don't see the appeal with his acting. I actually don't watch Brad's movies at all. I find him to be boring.
ReplyDeleteGawker.com just did a funny writeup on this. In a few hours go check the comments and laugh your ass off there! (we're funny too but gawkers are funnier bc they r moderated)
ReplyDeleteThis is just embarassing. It's like an SNL skit of a perfume ad if Brad was hosting. It's awful.
ReplyDeleteOT but kinda funny.
ReplyDeleteMy husband had to have reconstructive plastic surguery after being sucker punched by an inmate. I told him to tell the dr to make him look like Brad Pitt. Well, when the nurse came to get me after the procedure she told me that he was really out of it still and kept asking everyone if he looked like Brad Pitt. I told her why he was saying that and as we entered the room I heard him asking another nurse the same question. Once he saw me he asked me if he looked like BP. So I had to tell him "Yeah Hun, you look just like him in Fight Club." Just to give you an idea, he had gauze packed in both nostrils, both eyes were black, and he was drooling. To this day every time I see Fight Club I think about him.
Entward, that's light reflecting off the surface, lol. No need to get all excited. ;)
ReplyDeleteI thought this was really cool and avante-garde for a commercial. Much better than my thought when I first heard Mr. Pitt was doing this commercial, which was him backlit in gold with flowing gold fabric in the background and swishing his manlocks about in a frolicking, effeminate manner. I like this version better, lol.
Brad does not pull off 'skanky hot' very well.
ReplyDeleteAnd *sigh* I was having a craving for a bottle of no. 5.. now it turned into NO! 5
It all reeks nowadays, IMO. Perfumes used to be a special thing, back in my through-high-school days.
ReplyDeleteNow I can't stand any of them. I'll let my Tom's of Maine stick deodorant be my scent. Actual scent-wise I can only wear men's scents now, I swear! CK One is the only thing I can stomach wearing and it's unisex; either that or Crabtree & Evelyn's Sandalwood aftershave for men! What've I got, male skin now???
My Vanity Fair came today and it practically gagged me outta the car before I could get it home from the post office. Balenciaga's Florabotanica was the worst. Blecchh--instant headache.
\perfume rant over\
And regarding Brad Pitt, he probably needs the $$$ and is now doing foreign-shown commercials to repay those high-dollah gamblin' and whorin' debts we heard about.
ReplyDeleteThey should have gone with Clooney. Brad downgrades Chanel to Wal-Mart status.
ReplyDeleteAw, I loved it. I like Brad. Seems I'm the only one, but I'm used to that. :D
ReplyDeleteThis seems like some deep, Franco-style actin' to me!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I've never found Brad to be sexy (too blond for me) but I could see why other people did.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, I actually thought he was totally hot here, artistic merit aside.
That was fucking stupid! (all letters left in my swear word due to rage, also had to fix up another mistake caused by the douchenozzle at work who never gets held to account for his actions & my husband is third day into a 13 day stint away with work)
ReplyDeleteOT: to the person who posted Women, This Is Jeremy Fucking Renner Talking, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have even made my hubby read a couple out to me.
Bah! Chanel No 5 is what I wear.
ReplyDeleteBut not if I had seen this commercial first!
BTW, he sounds like Smith when Samantha (On Sex & the City), dragged everyone to go see Smith in his play.... trying to be deep, but isn't...
I find it immensely ironic that a man who so often goes out in public looking like he hasn't showered or shaved in eons has been chosen to be the public face for one of the most iconic perfumes of all time.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure he was paid a mint and that was the draw for him. He and Angie have been spending $ like water lately with all the kids, homes, nannies, travel by private jet, bodyguards, charity donations, etc.
He got $7 million dollars
ReplyDeleteThat is the stupidest commercial I have ever seen.
ReplyDeleteOut with the Brad and in with the Thor....
ReplyDeleteWhat's happened to men nowadays?
ReplyDeleteInevitable. That Brad would resort to a craptastic commercial stint. I guess 6 kids are expensive. Makes my eyes burn.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's nuclear strikes, I think it's just lights from cities.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Conan's version of this commercial more. ;)
