Virgin Mobile perfect for crazy stalker types
I don't like where Virgin Mobile's "Kelsey and Brad" series of ads is going, because there's only one logical way for it to end. Now that Miss Crazy-Go-Nuts has set up shop in a tree outside Brad's kitchen window and (in the second spot, after the jump) in one of his spacious closets, it won't be long before they're pulling a sheet over Brad's body while Kelsey babbles on about being able to check his Flickr stream from the back of the squad car. Someone cast Brad in a New Balance commercial, so he can run the hell away from all this. By Mother in New York, which has been playing the crazy card for Virgin Mobile for a while.
