Originally I was going to comment on how the new Cadbury’s Thins candy commercial (which is vaguely derogatory) has what are I think the largest stretched lobes that have been in a mainstream commercial (not including Art Aguirre from Church of Steel who was in the reality show Mad Mad House) recently, but then I noticed that she also looks disconcertingly like Xeni from boingboing (sorry for the crappy photos of my TV)…

The new hairstyle looks like it was based on Cloud (?) from Final Fantasy, maybe they were mocking videogame culture too?
And you can see her hair through the tunnels in the second clip, so I’m betting they’re real.
Haven’t seen the commercial, but now I’m interested. Hopefully if anyone finds it online they’ll post a link!

The only other mention of this ad i’ve seen online was on a myspace page. It’s as if no-one else has seen it… ?_?

I don’t think the commercial has anything to do with the visibly modified or the “plainskin” (that’s a word I don’t particularly agree with…but that’s another story)
I think it’s about going to a shitty hairdresser and why you should look into your stylist before subjecting yourself to her talentless efforts! HA!
That lady’s hair looks like shit! The fact that there’s a modified person is coincidental. I think one in every two or three people is modified so it’s really about TIME commercials and mainstream media aknowledge that.

Okay, there are actually three commercials in this series. Its for Cadbry 100 calorie chocolate which is about the thickness of one of those Listerine Pocket Dissolving sheets…
There’s one of two 20-something year old waving goodbye to the shore as the boat pulls away, but they have this really miserable look on their faces cus the cruise ship is filled , jam-packed with ONLY elderly couples. “Some things you regret, others you don’t”
I forget the third…
The the one with the modded girl.. It shows the girl the plugs chopping hair, and then they show the woman all miserable and give this half-assed smile in the mirror, but totally not actually happy, but the modded girl thinks its awesome. “Some things you regret, others you don’t”
I find that since the target audience for this product IS soccer-mom’s and older, mature women. They count that this audience isn’t going to like the haircut and most likely roll their eyes at the hairdresser. It makes people with mods, with tattoos, with crazier than normal hair and just a real jubilance look incredibly foolish. As if we have no comon sense.. they are basically showing that this extravangtly modified person was not able to properly judge that this woman obviosly would not like the hair cut.
Not necessarily only MODDED people… goth/”out-there” type as well.. anyone who expresses/abuses the freedom of expression…
I dunno, that’ was my first impression and i can bet my bottom dollar that the when targetted audience sees that, they are thinking “those crazy tattooed people… tsktstsk she was probably doing drugs” or “Oh those crazy young people, they just can’t respect others”. I’m SURE of it.

I just spend half an hour searching the internet for this commercial, with no luck. Going a bit crazy, so will someone please post a link as soon as they find it? Thank you!

i got annoyed with the commercial because to me it’s like ‘oh that modded girl is CRAZY so she’ll give you CRAZY HAIR! watch out!!!’
but i was excited to see her [someone modded like that] in a mainstream commercial.

I agree with Lexci. And I think people are reading too much into it. It’s just a dumb commercial geared toward calorie-counting weight-conscious women. It’s not an insult to suggest that different people have different taste, styles, opinions and such. It just means that some things aren’t for everyone.
As for the second commercial, I bet a lot of young single women wouldn’t want to go on a cruise with just old people. It doesn’t mean you hate old people, it’s just means it’s not what you are into. I see the first commercial as the same kind of thing.
