Mom’s brought you out for an afternoon with your favorite animated sponge. She sprung for candy, popcorn, Coke. So why don’t you save up your pennies and get her a nice bottle of Chanel No. 5 for Christmas.
But seriously, I had been looking forward to seeing the new Chanel ad that would be in limited theatrical release. I always get a kick out of the Chanel ads that hit the TV during the pre-Christmas shopping time. They have a certain sophistacted je ne sais quoi that has no resemblance to my reality. (Except for bringing back memories of my mother, who actually wore Chanel No. 5. In fact, I may have given her a bottle or two. The price was within the reach of a child of limited means. No more. Thinking I was no mature enough for Chanel, I once wandered into Ulta - looking extremely out of place - to price this fine fragrance. $90 a bottle for eau de toilette!?! So I continued on to PetsMart to buy crickets for the frog. ) But do the children waiting for SpongeBob Squarepants really want to see a Nicole Kidman mini-movie? I think not. The audience was polite nonetheless.
