Betty White and Slash Make the Perfect Pair in L.A. Zoo Ads Odd couple have bizarre chemistry in new campaign
Allen & Gerritsen put together this charming series of TV spots for the Los Angeles Zoo's LAIR (Living Amphibians, Invertebrates and Reptiles) environment. If nothing else, the agency should be commended for pairing up Slash and Betty White, who are both on the zoo's board of trustees and have an unexpected, and bewildering, on-screen chemistry. They must use the same amount of foundation, too, because Slash's complexion hasn't been this smooth since Reagan was president. Also, someone should tell the snakes in the second ad that Slash sold his place in the Hills. More spots after the jump.
