Hey, it's that herpes girl!

There was a commercial for a herpes medicine on teevee yesterday, where a rather attractive woman talks about ‘her’ herpes. (I assume that she is not actually infected, but is just playing a role.) I wonder how that commercial may affect her acting career? Would casting agents look at her résumé and say, ‘Well… She’s good for the role; but people may recognise her from her commercial. I don’t think we want to risk any negative publicity.’

I wondered the same thing about the Pepto Bismol adverts. ‘Hey! She’s the one with diarrhea!’

Hey there, Herpes girl
Swingin’ down the street so lesion-free
Nobody you meet could ever see
The virus there inside you
Hey there, Herpes girl
Why do all the boys just pass you by?
Could it be you just don’t ask
All the guys condoms to wear?

Wasn’t this an episode of Friends? Joey got featured on a public service poster for STD’s and found it was affected his social and professional life?

I’ve never seen Friends.

Is that one of your Earth jokes? :dubious:

FTR, I’ve never seen it either.

Margret Cho has a routine about seeing a woman in a variety of femine hygene product commercials and makes the comment that she knows too much about that woman’s vagina.

I doubt it would make a difference unless it was the most famous herpes commercial in the universe, featuring a character beloved by millions who had been spun off into T-shirts, cosmetics, breakfast cereal and comic books. In that case, typecasting might set in.

My favorite is the birth control commercial where the girl goes out with all these different guys until she finds the one who is “perfect” for her. I always like to think she slept with all of those losers first, especially since she looks like little miss priss. haha.

I dunno, but if Johnny is talking about the same Herpes Girl I’m thinking of, the one with the amazingly beautiful eyes, then I’d say it could be the most famous herpes commercial in the universe.

11

The diarrhea girl is smokin’ hot! And she’s got the moves, too.

I’m in love with the dirrahea girl!

12

Is she that kayaking herpes girl? Because that commercial has put me off girls who kayak. They’re really hot, but have herpes, you know.

13

You want to know what is scary?
That actress looks ALOT like my girlfriend. Especially the hair/face/eyes.
It kind of freaks me out.

14

I am talking about the Valtrex ad.
I am not sure if there are more than one.

15

Yes, the one with the beautiful wooden canoe. She does have a pretty face.

Yeah, she’s pretty too. But since I like performing cunnilingus (not that I ever get the chance :frowning: ), the diarrhea aspect is worrisome.

16

Diahrrea puts you off going down but herpes doesn’t?

17

Yeah, that would be a deal-breaker too.

This is kind of a reverse, but there used to be a PSA featuring a teen who had listened to music too loud and now he was losing his hearing.

The kid was played by the same kid who was on the short lived sitcom “Hi Honey, I’m Home” so it kind of lost it’s impact for me.

Wouldn’t that be awesome?

Start your day with Herpes-O’s, part of this nutritious breakfast.

Ok. Maybe not.

Holy crap that’s complicated. I’m glad that I don’t have to type that every time that I sign in!

I was in an ethics class, and we were talking about porn (for some reason or other) and the sorts of things sold in them when my prof says something like “What? I was just getting groceries!” So we started talking about groceries that you would buy at some place like Condoms To Go.

My favorite was “Porn-O’s” mmmm, mmmm!
