Is Old Spice's 'Mandroid' a Sexist Ad Campaign or a Satire of Sexist Ads?
Posted in: Uncategorized
As Old Spice and agency Wieden + Kennedy continue to roll out ads featuring their chronically malfunctioning spokes-bot, it’s hard to decide if they’re succumbing to one of the most tired cliches in advertising or if they’re skewering it.
The gag, which competitor Axe spent years building its marketing around, is that using the brand’s grooming products will make any man irresistible to women. Old Spice took the trope to its logical extreme, creating a mandroid who can score a hot date even when his face is falling off or he’s crushing a woman’s ribs with the weight of his industrial endoskeleton.
In the campaign’s newest spot, the robot has made the mechanically unwise decision to lounge in a hot tub, surrounded by women so enraptured by his scent that they seem to have lost the common sense to leave a body of water that contains a sparking, error-spouting electrical device.
The campaign’s ads definitely are good for a few laughs, but their portrayal of vapid women is also a departure for the brand.
A major factor in the success of Old Spice’s already legendary “Man Your Man Could Smell Like” campaign was that it spoke directly to women (“Hello, ladies.”) and recognized that they played a big role in household purchases like body wash and soap.
Later campaigns switched back to focusing on men, but they did so through oddly charming non-sequiturs like a screaming Terry Crews or a watermelon shower basketball.
But now, as it strives for a bigger slice of the lucrative male grooming category, Old Spice has dropped to the lowest common denominator: Use this product, and nothing else will matter. Women will hump you.
Turning women into mindless nymphomaniacs is the epitome of sexist advertising, but with one of the world’s top agencies behind the campaign, one has to wonder if the whole thing is just a meta parody of how dumb most male-oriented advertising is.
We asked Wieden + Kennedy whether they view the campaign as satire, though they deferred to the client:
“Much like all of our TV commercials, the new spots with the Old Spice robot illustrate the transformational powers of our products in the most ridiculous, over-the-top fashion,” says Kate DiCarlo, Procter & Gamble’s communications manager for Old Spice.
“In this case, we were looking to bring to life the concept that when you use the combination of Old Spice body wash, deodorant and shampoo, the result is a manly, irresistible freshness from head to toes–regardless of your biological composition.”
In the end, it’s hard to get upset about an ad campaign that’s this knowingly, gloriously dumb. The gags are so well delivered and head-shakingly odd, they make other “this will make you hot” ads seem flacid by comparison.
And if that’s not a definition for satirical advertising, what is?

Here Is Apple's Ad Celebrating the Surprise Release of U2's New Album
Posted in: Uncategorized
Apple wrapped up its iPhone 6/Apple Watch event today with quick the kicker: a performance by U2 followed by a remarkable offer: Everyone can get the band’s new album, “Songs of Innocence,” for free on iTunes through Oct. 13.
Below is the new spot celebrating the partnership, and it’s a throwback in more ways than one. It’s reminiscent, of course, of Apple’s old “Silhouettes” iPod commercials. (You’ll remember that U2 did an Apple ad, plus a longer video, around “Vertigo” in 2004.)
And then, in the new spot, you’ve also got glimpses of the Ramones and the Clash, to whom U2 is apparently paying tribute with the new record.
U2 and Apple have had a fruitful partnership for years, as Bono and Jonathan Ive discussed this summer at Cannes. One eagle-eyed observer suggested Tuesday that U2 might even be broadcasting hidden Apple messages. After all, “Songs of Innocence” appreviated is S.O.I., which backwards is iOS. And U2 S.O.I. backwards is iOS2U.
As for iPhone 6 and Apple Watch ads—we’re still waiting.
