When I first heard about La Senza’s new Christmas campaign I thought it was genius. But then when I got around to watching the Ad, I was rather creeped out by it. Especially at the start where they start introducing the “notes” and the girls have these strange/freakish smiles on their faces. It’s like ” hello, as you can see from me boobies I am note G.
And if La Senza was really that intent on doing this- couldn’t they have picked a more, jingly cheery, better voiced crew. But I’m guessing men would probably enjoy the sounds the girls are emitting.
I don’t wanna turn all feminist on you I appreciate a good sexy Ad when I see one but this Ad which clearly targets men- basically reduces women to well – a pair of tits. If you are a women you are now categorized according to the size of your boobs. So sing along with me C-Cups of the world….
I was on the fence about whether or not I liked the add until I saw that La Senza took it one step further, you can now click here http://www.cupsizechoir.com/?k=1 and make your own music by clicking on the girls “notes.” Pervs of the world rejoice!
Seriously?
Are there men out there that are gonna sit around and make music like this? Is it just me or does anyone else think this is just CREEPY!!! Bisoux
UPDATE: It seems like our friends over at La Senza had some inspiration from oooooouch.com ( You would know that only if you were Brazilian,Thanks for the tip NM)

what you talking about?!??!! IVY !! babe… this is genius!!! I freakin love it… feminist or not… this is some great creative stuff… and from a guy’s point of you, i didnt find it sexually arousing… it’s sensual and if you notice 80% of it are close ups on the lingerie (even I noticed that hehehe not that I wear lingerie… but I did learn how to buy some 😀 hehehe )
(hahahaha and yes I tried making music on that link yesterday… except I dont know music notes and 3 minutes later I was bored hehehe)
hey don’t judge!! hahahah

Wow, seems like La Senza got more than just “some” inspiration! Even so, I have to agree with Sean, I still like the ad and think it’s genius, although bordering on the overllyyyyyy sensual. So, while the idea came from the ppl behind ooooooouch, La Senza had the better execution. Just my humble opinion..Now, let me go check what my cup sounds like! haha 😀

haha actually i love it!!! i dnt find it offensive at all! just the opposite, it shows that u can be sexy and classy whatever ur cup size is (since some ppl say that big sizes look vulgar etc…) i just think it s genius and as a woman im not offended at all although i m not that sure abt making ur cup size music, it can be fun if u try it with ur girlfriends i guess!
