Media Don’t Ask Me to Clean That Car

Posted by Wm. Steven Humphrey on Fri, Jul 21 at 1:49 PM

After receiving numerous complaints, New Zealand has pulled a dirty, dirty, dirty Nissan commercial starring Kim Cattrall (as her Sex in the City alter-ego Samantha Jones). Though laced with overreaching innuendo, I find this commercial distubing for many reasons OTHER THAN OVERT SEXUALITY. Here’s one of the commericials in the series. Thoughts?

SHE'S DRIVING ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE CAR! That's disturbing.

Oh, and nice cameo, Humpy!

SHE IS NOT SEXY!!!!

people just say she is because she's old and they've been told by people like Oprah and Barbara Walters that the whole cast is BUT THEY'RE NOT!

I think she's sexy, but her character most definitely is not!

i don't think the basis of casting her in this commercial is that she's sexy.. it's that she's a slut.
