Well, now that they have determined that Paris Hilton's recent advertisement is 'soft porn', I am happier. Heck, what passes for TV commercials in this day and age sure has changed since I was just a kid. After watching her commercial, I had to run and take a cold shower. Now, normally this would not be a problem but here at Roppongi Hills Mori Tower, I am nowhere near a shower. Let's just say, the staff were wondering "WTF?" when I was soaking my head under a restroom faucet. By the way, I sure wish they would open a Carls Jr burger joint in Roppongi Hills. My oh My! I would love to see Paris Hilton's life-size poster 'up close and personal'. Ha! Ha! Ha!

I really need to get into advertising...
Caldwell says that because the ad is airing during sports programs, and FOX's "OC", which are heavily watched by teens, it promotes sexuality to an audience that might not be ready for it. "It's difficult to gauge how children are going to react to this," Caldwell said.
Carl's Jr. features the ad on its Web site, carlsjr.com, and also built a separate Web site called SpicyParis.com to play a 60-second version of the commercial. The company says spicyparis.com was so overwhelmed with traffic last Friday that the Web site crashed. It is now back in operation.
