Apparently there is some discussion going on on the list about VW and Brooke Shields making an "offensive" ad. I guess I just didn't get as offended as many. In the really (extremely) long ad spot on the VW website which is obviously intended as a spoof similar to SNL skit, Brooke says something about ppl "cyber adopting" for the purpose of being able to drive this minivan. And what appears to be two white women remove what appears to be an asian baby from the minivan. Some on the list have said that it was "hurtful". I thought it was kind of stupid, but I wasn't offended.
But what I did love is that I was able to have me a virtual-baby, with anyone that I want. So I called my Baby daddy... Hill
And he agreed!!! So here is our little one!!! Isn't
he cute? (Kind of weird huh?)
And if you want to have your own little one, check it out
here! And please, let shoot me a picture.

That is soooo weird. I gonna do it again with my real baby daddy....Barack!!!!
ReplyDeleteGirl you are so funny......I think Hill is HOT!!! Too....
ReplyDeleteI wrote a "Dear John" letter to Tavis Smiley after meeting Hill Harper at my Cenntenial Celebration in DC this year where Hill autographed a copy of his new book for me. That is one good looking man!
ReplyDeleteRobbin, I almost commented on the big ET board but realized it would be of no use. Who do we send the letter to about the bad neighborhood conversation and the "can't send my kids to a black school" conversation? With all the hubbub I was shocked when I watch the video and would have missed the virtual baby thing if I had blinked my eyes.
ReplyDeletehe's mine! back off!! lol
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog, and I did the baby thingee. Idris Elba and I made the cutest little boy. Idris Elba is the hunk from The Wire, mmmmmm. Whoa. Anywho, I have had a great time laughing with you at your little girl pics.
ReplyDeletePeace
You and Hill made a cute kid...
ReplyDeleteI thought the commercial was hillarious-Brooke was nut job. If you go around taking yourself too serious all the time you'll crack up!
Let's see who I can make a baby with...Denzel or George Clooney..
