Taming the PG-13

I am a huge fan of SKINS (a risque British teen drama). When I saw this ad for EckoRed shoes with Vanessa Hudgens, it was verrrry very familiar to a SKINS ad for the first season.


Although, EckoRed is advertising to tweens in the Disney-watching market. And Skins is for high schoolers who watch "real teen shows" with druggies, uncensored swearing, sex, and otherwise scandalous material.

So clearly, if they got their inspiration from SKINS, then they toned down this commercial a bit.

What do you think?



and the SKINS promo I am talking about...





But see what I mean? photos, fun times, DJs, people dressed in animal costumes, dancing, writing on mirrors with lipstick, and outright craziness! So similar!!!
