Thirty-second spot features an oddly muscular kangaroo, a ‘fun’ guy in a yellow suit and Ellie Gonsalves in a white bikini
The wine brand Yellow Tail has been accused of embarrassing Australia on the international stage with its Super Bowl advertisement featuring a woman in a bikini and a kangaroo in an apron.
The Australian company’s 30-second spot in the first half of the Super Bowl introduced an estimated audience of 120 million viewers to a muscular, wine-slugging kangaroo: “If you see a roo at a party, it’s a good party.”
The Yellowtail Super Bowl ad humiliated my country more than Trump ever could.
How much yellow tail would I need to consume before this becomes a good ad? #SuperBowl http://pic.twitter.com/XAYbcwB4pM
Just watched yellowtail Super Bowl ad. Cringe. Hope they sell lots in US coz I'll never buy it.
It's been a rough week for Australia but surely that Yellow Tail #SuperBowl Ad with the DJing kangaroo was the low point.
Ew yellow tail don't drink that shit it's cat piss
Tonight we've already introduced the Busch Guy and the Yellow Tail Guy. Great. Because we needed more bland brand spokesman. #SuperBowl
