I was going to say “meh” until I saw this.
I’ve got one thing…wait, two…no, three things against those commercials:
- Shameless, blatant ripoff of the Mac/PC adverts
- Count me as another one who thinks the poofy dresses make her look odd
- Not only unoriginal, it’s the oldest advertising dodge in the book: “Come to T-Mobile, because I’m really really pretty”.
Other than that, I’m fine, because, she’s, well, really really pretty.
She’s awesome. Not even my type really, but when a girl looks like that, ‘type’ goes out the window.
I agree that there seems to be something ‘off’ about her. She seems stiff and awkward to me, and although I can see that, individually, her features are attractive, the result is less than the sum of the parts. From the first commercial I saw with her in it, I thought that there was a medical issue with her legs - like they lack a certain angulation at the knee, or are hyperrotated at the hip, or something.
Anyway, for a spokesmodel that’s supposed to appeal to you viscerally, she’s pretty offputting.
I think she looks good, but they always put her in artificial green-screen settings, which feels a bit unnerving.
She needs to go shopping for Progressive insurance.
I’ll go get the DVR ready…
She’s scary skinny. She’d be gorgeous if she gained 15-20 pounds.
I think her teeth and lips are a bit oversized looking. Dare I go so far as to say her mouth is a bit mis-proportioned?
Thats funny, 'cause she’d end mine!
She’s troublingly thin, and she’s pigeon toed. Posing pigeon toed in still pictures is the in thing for young hipster girls showing off their hipster ensembles on Tumblr and Posterous, but in someone who’s in motion, it’s a worrisome orthopedic issue, not an affected freeze frame.
She also doesn’t come across as actually groking the topic she’s speaking of, and considering that the majority of people have mobile phones and understand at least enough about data plans and mobile web to speak with reasonable fluency for 20 seconds, that’s pretty sad. It’s like she’s never used a smartphone, even while she sells them.
See, I’d go the other way. Seeing the screenshot makes me think that the good pictures have been shot at angles or otherwise manipulated to make her look better than she does.
It’s only when I’ve seen actual videos that I get that the screenshot was the problem.
Speaking of that (not the T-Mobile girl, who is OK by me), this Metamucil commercial is incredibly offputting to me. Who is she talking to? A teleprompter?
Metamucil! The! Only! Fiber! Supplement! With Crack Cocaine! And Redbull!
-Head Explodes-
(Metamucil will not grow you a third arm. Illegal in some states. Erections lasting more than 4 hours require medical intervention.)
That would be a scripting issue. I doubt T-Mobile tells her to just ad-lib about phones for 20 seconds.
I didn’t call her pretty, or ugly…I called her * indefinably odd*…/pedant and it’s her hips that are pointy, not her knees! 
Is it a worrisome orthopedic issue? I only ask because I myself am pigeon-toed. My parents decided against getting me leg braces as a child and it has gradually corrected itself to the point where most people don’t realize that I’m pigeon-toed. Unless I’m on stairs, then it’s completely obvious.
She’s pretty but uninteresting.
T-Mobile has a latino version of her. The dress is cut higher on her chest for less cleavage and goes down to the knees. She’s also a little more normal weight. That girl is cuter.
Why is it that whenever somebody isn’t as fat as the average person on the street, then they must be dangerously underweight? :rolleyes:
She will not be your girlfriend. Because you have the wrong phone.
