WHERE SUCCESSFUL ADVERTISING MEETS LGBT EQUALITY

PepsiCo, Go Bold!

Members:

The diminutive and gay comedian Leslie Jordan ("Will & Grace") walks in for a commercial try-out but feels out of place among tall male models. Speaking on the phone, he looks at the competition and announces, “Oh, twins! Well, maybe I will stay.”

Selected for the commercial, Jordan is now surrounded by two beautiful women feeding him Doritos and two hunky models behind him, everyone in swimsuits. The flamboyant director repeatedly tells Jordan to “Go bold!” Out of other moves, Jordan decides to drop his swim shorts, to everyone’s dismay. In the closing, the director concludes darkly, “Too bold.” In the extended ending, the male models are now feeding Jordan.
