Super Bowl Ads that Didn’t Make the Cut

Every year, there are arguably just as many people who watch the Super Bowl for the creative and expensive commercials as for the game. However, over the years, there have been many ads created for the Super Bowl that were never shown due to being deemed too controversial for network television.

Many of the ads are deemed too controversial due to their sexual content, such as the ever-controversial Go Daddy’s 2006 Supper Bowl add that featured a woman exiting a limo with several beavers. Supposedly, the ad was a tongue-in-cheek reference to a previous celebrity incident where a well-known female celebrity exited a limo not wearing underwear. Networks deemed the beaver reference offensive and did not air the ad. Another ad that was not aired due to sexual references was an ad submitted by the pro-affair website Ashley Madison that featured a porn star.

Not all banned ads are banned due to their titillating nature, but due to controversial political or social reasons. These banned ads include an ad from the conservative website JesusHatesObama.com that featured a dueling bobble-head Obama and Jesus and an ad by the United Church of Christ affirming their history of welcoming gay and lesbian parishioners into their congregation.

Temptation Better Than Passion On Super Sunday

On a Sunday that was super for more reasons than one, the Los Angeles Temptation defeated the Philadelphia Passion in convincing fashion, 28-6. The victory marked the third consecutive title for the Temptation, once again giving the city of Los Angeles a reason to be proud.

Lingerie Bowl IX was full of big hits and defense as the Temptation flexed their slender yet powerful muscles on defense en route to a performance that any team on any level would be very proud of. Tessa Barrera anchored another strong defensive effort as the Temptation stymied the Passion’s offensive attack by putting pressure on Christy Bell all evening long, forcing the incredibly athletic and attractive quarterback to scramble often and make many of her throws on the run.

The game capped another successful season for the league, which airs on MTV2 and has shown a steady increase in popularity in recent years.

Thanks to a new Versace ad campaign, the whole world will get to see what has previously been reserved for New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady – supermodel Gisele Bundchen topless.

The Brazilian bombshell, mom to 2-year-old Benjamin and wife of Brady is appearing nearly uncovered in the steamy new ad for the Versace jeans 2012 summer/spring collection.

The black and white photo was taken in California, and shows Bunchen wearing a tight pair of jeans and no shoes while on the beach. On top she is wearing nothing but a denim jacket that reveals quite a big of cleavage, and is leaning provocatively against a palm tree.

The ad campaign was launched on the heels of the information that Bundchen is soon to become the world’s first supermodel billionaire, and just days before Brady’s turn at the helm of the Patriots during Super Bowl XLVI. The photo was taken by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

Star Outfielder, Addict Admits To Relapse

Josh Hamilton, All-Star outfielder and home run hitter for the Texas Rangers baseball team, has a long history of alcohol and drug abuse, and has admitted to drinking alcohol this past Monday night.

Reports now confirmed by the Texas Rangers organization say that Hamilton walked to a Dallas area bar on Monday night and began drinking. Teammate Ian Kinzler was with him, but was reportedly trying to take him out of the bar. This is the second well documented time since 2009 that Hamilton has fallen off the wagon. In the other incident in 2009, Hamilton was photographed both consuming alcohol and in compromising positions with women in the bar.

This incident comes as Hamilton was pushing for a multi-million dollar, long term contract with the Rangers, and industry speculators now say his chances of getting that type of deal are long gone due to this incident.

The Rangers, and other baseball clubs interested in Hamilton should he become a free agent, are now too worried about his addiction to take a big chance on the player.

Banned Super Bowl Commercials Include Plus Size

Banned Super Bowl commercials include one for TheBigAndTheBeautiful.com, which is a dating website used by men and women who are plus size.

Whitney Thompson, who created the site and has been busy promoting it, boasts not only of being a model for the fuller-size figure but also of being a winner of “America’s Next Top Model” Cycle 10.

She believes that the commercial was rejected because of starring bigger women rather than the typical skinny model despite NBC Universal’s e-mail which said that Standards and Practices (S&P) would not have approved the ad.

Was being plus size really the reason for the commercial banning? Or was it the entry price of over $3 million dollars? The most recent update from NBC Sports says that, although an initial inquiry was submitted, the commercial could not be considered because The Big and the Beautiful did not file a formal “order to buy”.
