Boston-based Arnold Communications will break a new spot for Volkswagen of America on the much-hyped episode of Ellen in which the star’s character admits she is a lesbian.





The ad (shown here), features two men driving around in a VW Golf with absolutely nothing to do.





But don’t get excited, the agency said that the couple in its ‘Sunday Afternoon’ spot is not gay.





Arnold copywriter Alan Pafanbach said, ‘We had three ads to run and we chose that one (for Ellen) at random.’
