Bugle
Boy Jeans Commercial (AndGenisis' I can't dance connection)
After
watching a Genisis music video “I can't dance” and the opening
skit reminded me of a certain commercial. Which set of commercials
was this skit taken from? Then, it dawned on me. It was the Bugle Boy
Jeans. It was a set of commercials from the 90s when an extremely
attractive woman stalks a dude over his jeans. Hey, maybe she is just
into men's jeans and that's it. The ads were very funny. I
don't believe that is the same woman in both the video and the ad.
However, there is little information on the woman in the Genisis
version.
The sad news is that Bugle Boy is no longer a brand. It
completely went out of business in 2018. I am sure hipsters
would have embraced it.
Hey,
let's ignore the fact she is watching him in his own apartment. She
has his joint wired. Creepy. Please also note the song the jean dude
is playing is a very close sound-a-like version of Phil Collins' “In
the Air Tonight”. Hmm.
Check
out this blog for a bit more information about the ad. The kicker
is that everyone made a parody about this already amusing set of
commercials. Even Tiny Toons threw in a joke about it.
I
really do want to drive up to a random chick ask her if those are
Bugle Boy Jeans or Guess. I am sure I'd get the cops called on
me.
