Maybe you remember this video? Maybe you remember this spoof of that video? Well, let's go for the trifecta. Maybe you've already seen this spoof of the royal wedding? It's an ad for a cell phone company. I've only watched it once and can't remember which company(does that say something about the ad?) Either way I thought you'd like to check it out.
I'm going to have a little personal rant time after the video. Enjoy!
(Oops! As soon as I posted this I saw the name of the video. It's T-Mobile....)
So, the idea of this being a fairytale wedding is really bugging me. It always comes back to him being royalty and her having no royal blood at all. But, this fairytale pretty much starts and ends there. It rifles pretty quickly into banality once you start actually looking at it. How did they start dating, she seduced him with a see-through dress. Congratulations, you discovered he had a weakness for pretty girls in their underwear. Then they date for a bit and move in with each other.
That's not a fairytale! That's a "reality"tale, and little girls all over England and the world are going to follow this and dream of finding their Prince Charming, but I feel like this one's shining armor has lost a bit of sparkle. Isn't there something to be said of the chaste pure gentleman who falls in love with the woman because of some intrinsic qualities, and not just that her boobies looked nice in a see-through dress? Mind you, I'm not saying that he shouldn't have thought she was beautiful, just that beauty is fleeting and there should be a deeper spark for a relationship.
Little girls! Aim higher! Noble blood doesn't make him a gentleman! Being born with wealth and purpose doesn't mean he has noble intentions, even if the end result is positive. Save yourselves for a man who points your heart toward the King of Kings and not just another prince of this world.
