    She’s pretty but they should’ve kept it how they’ve done the other 3 commercials. For one like this they need a stronger actress

      I agree completely…that was kind of painful

        Ditto. The clip is way cringe-inducing. I get what they’re trying to do here, but with the wrong (i.e. terribly overrated) actress, it just doesn’t work.

      I mostly thought it was too long — betcha there is a shorter version, and I would like it better.

    She’s pretty as can be but, um, I have heard her sing. Oy.

    Eek! I just assumed that it’s a snarky sort of parody of all the dramatic – or should I say melodramatic? – frag ads featuring airhead celebrities engaged in inane commentary and that it’s supposed to be funny!

      ^I doubt that VERY seriously. This was her real deal acting. She’s always been overrated in the acting department, IMHO

    This is obviously a playful parody of Marilyn Monroe, or other glamourous silver screen starlets – it’s meant to be funny. I thought this was a great commercial, and that Scarlet is indeed a talented actress.
