Blogosphere opinions are split on Padma Lakshmi’s new commercial for Hardee’s/Carl’s Jr., in which she lustily chows down on a bacon-laced barbecue burger. Shall we pause to consider the evidence?
I say: hot! Hitch up that skirt and go, girl! Gawker disagrees: “We have to say that even by Slutburger commercial standards, this one has really crossed into the realm of comedy. Particularly impressive is how they appear to have edited into the middle of the ad a shot of uncontrollable sex fiend Author/Culinary Expert Padma hiking up her dress, with no apparent connection whatsoever to the burger-eating process.”
I really think a commenter at A Hamburger Today said it best though: “Boobies and Burgers —GOD BLESS AMERICA!”
g-a-a-aaacccckkk, in the words of Bill the Cat.
Well, not to overanalyze, but I got the impression she hiked up her dress so she wouldn't drip sauce on it (the drop that lands on her ankle would otherwise have landed on her dress).
