What is it with this Old Spice?

I was first introduced to this man with the awesome body (*tingle all over*) a few days ago by my friend, Zety through Twitter. I thought he was hilarious. Not that he said anything funny, it's just that with his voice, his physique and the Old Spice hovering around, it felt like a somewhat weird combination. Have you guys ever watched the Old Spice advert? Let me share it here with you.

I know we don't have Old Spice here in Malaysia but this Old Spice has turned into some kind of a viral overnight fame from what I read. It all started from the one who portrays the man every woman dreams of, Isaiah Mustafa. I have no problem with him, of course. But I don't think I would buy Old Spice for my man any time soon. Why? The name itself is already a turn off. Do I want my man to smell like an old man who had too much spicy food for dinner? LOL! Can he be spicy even when he's old? 

I think I've had enough Spice in my lifetime. There were five - Posh Spice, Baby Spice, Sporty Spice, Ginger Spice and not to forget, Crazy Spice. LOL!!

Then, I read today on Yahoo! TV that despite the example of a perfect male body portrayed by Isaiah, the Old Spice sales are not making so well. Like I said, maybe the women are wondering should they get it for their men and risk having them turn into a spicy yet old man - thus an older sex life? LOL! Hey, we women think a lot OK? And the men, do you think men would like to buy anything that suggests they're OLD? If they name the product Hot & Spicy, maybe it'll be a better hit with the guys. Hey, names plays a big part in an everyday life, you know. 

What? Do you think Tom Cruise would get laid as much as he did now if he uses his real name - Thomas Cruise Mapother IV?

Still, I enjoyed the video clips. Hope you guys will too.
