If this TV commercial appears during the Super Bowl, take it with a pinch of aspartame. But the ad says you should drink it anyway. The campaign, by Anomaly Los Angeles, features a variety of lesser known young actors, rather than major celebrities like Taylor Swift. Jacobs buys a Diet Coke and speaks directly to the camera. It makes me feel good. Life is short. If you want to live in a yurt, yurt it up.
Time for a Diet Coke break as we look back at 35 years of the brand’s adverts and gratuitous male toplessness. Diet Coke, which turns 35 this week, has had many commercial identities. From shirtless hunks through to puppets and, well, right back to shirtless hunks again, the brand has often been a one-brand reaction against the male gaze. Here are 10 of its finest spots, which are actually way more varied than you may have realised Diet Coke’s first series of ads, however, were a very different affair. In one of the first, the drink is unveiled at a very of-its-era Hollywood gala full of very of-its-era celebrities like Telly Savalas and Carol Channing, with nary a male nipple in sight. For the ’80s and early ’90s, Diet Coke merely aped the Pepsi model, getting celebrities like Whitney Houston, Jerry Hall and, in the above, a Michael Keaton-era Batman to appear in their ads. Finally, 13 years into the brand’s life, we get some male bimbo brawn as an office call a ‘Diet Coke break’ at , the exact time a local construction worker takes his shirt off and takes a sip of everyone’s favourite aspartame-filled beverage.
The commercial, advertising Diet Coke. It makes me feel good. Slate delivers an incredible experience for all, from back-end users to front-end clients.
Diet Coke with a combination of vitamins and minerals. If you want to run in a marathon, I mean, that sounds super hard, but OK. Archived from the original on January 2, Super Bowl.
