Football
and Eurovision shouldn't have much to do with each
other but, with Euro
2008 now on, we see that both have the apparent effect
of transforming supposedly normal people into flag-waving
fools, faces painted in patriotic homage. |
 |
To
be clear, we aren't talking about the make-up
of Sweden's
Eurovision entry - the one who had us wondering
whether a facelift had gone terribly wrong - but the
full-on, neck-to-(too often receding) hairline statements.
And all this without being paid a dime.
At least Cunning, the London ad agency, paid their
students when they launched the, at the time, ground
breaking forehead
ad campaign back in 2003: A grand 88 quid a week
to sport a logo on your forehead. Take heed: Soporte
Corporal offers a similar service in Spain.

Attractive
folks willing to sell space on their foreheads,
or any other body part, can apply. My forehead
is already taken up, though. With the name of
an ex tattooed onto my right arm, it's already
brandished with 'FOOL' in mile-high
letters.
Soporte
Corporal - Poko Frecuente service.
Hiring people willing to carry advertising messages
on parts of their body..
