Video of the Day: MAC-Hello Kitty Commercial

Posted by Emily Farris

Other than for this very purpose (spreading it around the Interwebs) we're not sure why any company would put together a four minute and eleven second commercial. But if you are going to put together a four minute and eleven second commercial, this MAC Cosmetics + Hello Kitty ad is the way to do it.
At one point, a woman chases her little black pussy cat into a pink tube as the lyrics "come inside" are accompanied by trippy techno music. It just gets better after that. We would have like to watched this during the Super Bowl commercial breaks.

On the one hand, who among us hasn't gone chasing after pussy and wound up in a pink tube? I ask you.

On the other hand, this is one of those ads that utterly baffles me, not just because it's trippy and weird, but because I have no idea what exactly it is that they're trying to sell....unless it's that dress the blonde was wearing. I'd like to see more of those around the office.

Wow... now I have a strange craving for a posse of leather clad men on leashes. Do you suppose that's what they were trying to sell? I wouldn't mind me a leashed entourage.
