[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The real question is:

What the hell is that word salad she is spewing on the Botox commercials she’s in?

I have been a native English speaker for well over 40 years. If anyone can decipher what this woman is saying, please share.

Thank you! I actually assumed this thread would be about that ad because I watched a lot of Olympics on Peacock and this is one of like 5 ads they run on repeat on there (the others include Lipinski's TJ Maxx ad, the copy for which actually makes sense).

I would LOVE to get a behind the scenes on how they wrote this ad because it reflects a deep discomfort either by Botox or by Lipinski with the whole concept of using Botox. Like every time I saw this ad, my first thought was "why doesn't she just say  that she uses Botox?" If a friend and I were discussing Botox and she went on a spiel like Lipinski's in this ad, I'd say "Honey, it's okay, we all want to look our best."

There is also an ad for the new Wegovy pill that debuted during the Super Bowl featuring Keenan Thompson and DJ Khaled that goes out of its way to say that they are paid actors and not necessarily using Wegovy or advocating based on their experience using it. I don't care if they use it or not! I think drawing attention to it makes you think "oh they are on Wegovy but don't want to admit it." It would be better to just say "I use this drug and here's my positive experience." Like in Serena's ad. It's much more effective because she's owning it and being straightforward.[/quote]
