It’s a weird ad campaign even with the genes comment taken out. This is their back to school season campaign with an ASMR clip of this girl unzipping her pants and zoom ins on her chest and lips. In one pic she is wearing two very baggy jeans on top of each other. At best it’s an odd advertisement.


"Weird" is pretty on point for a brand targeted at Gen Z in the Tik Tok era. Kids like weird, plus it garners attention in a crowded landscape. I bet a lot of ad agencies sit around trying to figure out how to make ads more weird on purpose.

The baggy jeans and layered jeans are an actual style. Baggy jeans are very in and especially popular with teens and 20 somethings. The "double jean" look started as a weird high fashion impersonation of street style. I don't think any normal people actually wear it, but I've seen it in many ad campaigns and fashion editorials in the last couple years. It's all part of this exaggerated denim silhouette with dad jeans, barrel jeans, etc.


And yet Gen-Zers on TikTok are mocking the shit out of it. Just admit you're an out-of-touch dinosaur who's pretending to be knowledgeable about marketing.


You are so wildly out of touch. It’s funny.



It might make Gen Z's heads explode to realize that some people don't use Tik Tok. Who gives a damn what a bunch of flat affect Gen Z who live with mommy have to say about a successful actress.


It would seem like AE would. Unless they really are just trying to sell jeans to MAGA moms.

That's how all female zoomers talk -- see also Billie Eilish. It's how you talk when you're numbed out on SSRIs. Even the teens not addicted to SSRIs copy that affect because it's all over tiktok, instagram, and young celeb and influencer content.

I don't know if Tik Tok boycott campaigns work. I think boycotts in general are rarely effective, and I don't see it having an effect where all of Sweeney's movies earn big $$ at the box office. She is still aspirational for the crowd that go to her movies and watch the druggie teenage drama she was in.

Why is Elon Musk now making fun of this ad? It doesn’t make any sense.

I overheard my son talking about this ad with his pals and believe they said she (or someone) sells SS bath water. Is that true? Because if people are paying for her bath water, then she has reached a high level of fame and sex appeal…which makes sense why AE would use her in an ad campaign seeking to reinvent the Brooke Shields CK jeans ads.

Anyway, this a marketing success for the brand and the ad company…even if some internet trolls insist upon floating ridiculous ideas about racist intent.

All genes matter.

Sorry. I meant to type all jeans matter…even my mom jeans.

At first glance it's kind of like WTF is this such a big controversy, it's an ad for jeans.

But in the current climate it's understandable how someone would have an immediate reaction to "good genes" being attributed to an attractive white person.

You can tell how smart someone is by the things that get them angry. Democrats flip out over everything. Stormy Daniels. Melania’s outfits. Pronouns. Musk’s “Nazi salute.” Now it’s an actress in denim. “Dust off your bullhorns, comrades. We’ve got some boycottin’ to do!”

They’re boycotting Dunkin’ and Arby’s now too 🤣

I don’t find Rachel Zigler incredibly attractive but neither is Sydney Sweeney. She’s incredibly sexy and hot. Her face is not blue for eyed. If she weren’t blonde and didn’t have those two other assets (which are impressive) she wouldn’t be nearly as popular as she is.

Stage actors don’t have to be as “hot” as television and movie actors. Also Rachel has never been sold as supposedly hot, I don’t know why people are comparing the two out of nowhere. Her talent is being good at musical theater, nobody pays her to do anything else. They really aren’t comparable people.
