News, but not the serious kind

When life is just a beer commercial…

Advertising staff, today we’re here to honor Lamar, whose work on the Guinness Stout account has been pure genius!

Gosh, thanks, Boss. You’re much too kind…

Not at all, Lamar. Who would have thought you could get photos of Barack and Michelle Obama, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip boldly showing Guinness Stout, all in less than a week?

That must be some kind of a world record, Lamar! Where could we check on that?

I think there’s a book, Boss, but I can’t remember the name.

I just have one question, Lamar. I know we spent $8 million on the celebrity ad campaign, but Obama and Elizabeth are the only ones we’ve seen so far.

Who else will you be rolling out? More really big names, I hope…

Oh, let’s not go into that now, Boss.

I insist, Lamar. Let’s see the rest of the commercials with celebs enjoying our product!
