Perrier had that fake Sprite ad beat in 1976
With everyone from Perez Hilton to Ryan Seacrest (or at least their respective lackeys) getting worked up over that dimwittedly sexual and blatantly fake Sprite ad yesterday, it was nice to see Adland pull this Perrier spot out of the vaults. A week ago, I would never have called it reserved in its metaphor, but then those Sprite spec guys had to go and make a straight-up porn. So huzzah to Perrier for making a ruboff look downright artsy.
