Blogbuzzter #2: MSN, Greenpeace and Kobe Bryant
2008-05-05 by CordulaAnother buzz-filled month has passed and it’s time for our second blogbuzzter:
- MSN loves China: Chinese patriots found an unusual way of responding to the anti-China hype in Western media about the Olympic torch relay and the Tibet conflict by demonstrating their love of their country on MSN.
- Greenpeace Onslaughter: The conservation organisation beat Dove at their own game by alluding to the brand’s video and putting a sensitive subject on the agenda: the use of palm oil in cosmetics.
- Kobe Bryant: The basketball star’s unrealistic jump over an Aston Martin left many people baffled. Guys, of course it’s a fake - Kobe would never risk his health and career for an ad!
- April fool’s jokes: There were plenty of them, and many excellent ones. We especially loved Google’s fake project “Virgle” and the punch-in-the-face service…
- The exotic buzz of the month: You know American Idol? In France this programme is called La nouvelle star and it is just as hilarious sometimes. Cindy Sander for example did not give up when she had to leave the show and released a song called Papillon de Lumière (Butterfly of light, ehemm…) – and France has been laughing ever since.
