The most messed up TV ad for orange juice EVER.

We never expected to see the words “soft drink” and “porn” in the same sentence – but hey, there’s a first for everything. This new ad for Irish soft drink company Club Orange has come under fire. Take a look and see what you think…

We asked media commentator  Jane Caro for her opinion on the matter and she said…..

Sex only sells when it is relevant and it isn’t relevant for orange juice (far too sticky). Sex gets attention, but if it is for something irrelevant, then everyone remembers the sex but not the product.

And presumably only men drink orange juice in Ireland.

Pathetic ad, really, sleazy, not funny, irrelevant and relying on borrowed interest. The orange juice equivalent of the bikini model on the bonnet of the car – last seen in 1962.

What do you think? Offensive, or not so much? Vote in the poll, or leave a comment below.

Thanks Shona for sending this.

*We’ve made some changes to this post to reflect that it is, in fact, an Irish ad. Sorry for the confusion!
