Beckham Strips Down for Armani

Victoria BeckhamThe Beckhams are certainly hot names in the advertising market these days. But while David Beckham has been cutting some endorsement deals, wife Victoria is going all out and showing it for Giorgio Armani’s 2009 spring/summer lingerie.

Last year, David Beckham made his own line of commercials but today, with photo edits pretty obvious, it is the time of Victoria Beckham to take the spotlight.

Victoria was airbrushed in the photos, and her tiny balls turned into melons, her complexion is immaculate and we don`t even have to mention her perfect figure. Truth be told, these curves suit her and we hope she will conclude the same thing and put on a few pounds.

Second Night of ‘Idol’ Stronger Than Premiere


MINNEAPOLIS (AdAge.com) — Maybe the season premiere of Fox's "American Idol" was just a warm-up act. Or maybe all the news about 10% fewer viewers overall and 15% lower ratings in the ad-centric 18-to-49 demographic reminded some that the country's favorite show was back.

Honda Launches Corporate Branding Campaign

honda011509The best way to get noticed is to have a short-film documentary of your company and it seems Honda has done just that. Binding all the corporate philosophies via an immersive website, the new “Power of Dreams” campaign showcases real stories from people on how Honda aims to provide solutions to their valued clients.

Three short documentary films: ‘Kick Out The Ladder,’ ‘Failure’ and ‘Mobility 2088’ (each about 6- 8 minutes long) debuted at the campaign launch; additional films will be added subsequently every few months.

The third film explores the future of mobility.

Em uma sátira hilária, eles mostram o que realmente aconteceu durante as filmagens da ação do Burger King, qual foi a verdadeira reação das pessoas que nunca tinham visto um hamburguer na vida ao se depararem com um Whopper.
