Creepiest Ads on the Web
Godaddy.com Danica Patrick "Shower": Godaddy.com subscribes to the theory that "sex sells." We can't really argue with that logic, but the company may have crossed the line with its Danica Patrick "Shower" ad. First shown during the 2009 Super Bowl, and online with an extended and unrated ending, the ad depicts a group of dorky guys huddled around a computer watching Danica shower. What's worse, the ad reveals that the boys can control her and they are making her shower for the fifth time, claiming, "now that I'm online, it's like I can make anything happen." GoDaddy.com ads always generate plenty of buzz due to their scandalous and often busty commercials, but many viewers have felt that this spot adds a voyeuristic creepiness to the titillation, particularly if you're not into the whole being spied-on thing. If you dismiss the commercial as silly hyperbole, then check out this story about the hacker arrested for spying on a girl with her own webcam and think twice.

Sex does sell but it also kills. Having these type ads available feeds the disturbed minds who commit sexual crimes. I'm not saying all viewers would be effected by this but some could be. It disgracefull how the human body has become merchandised to make money for advertisers.

ROFL - what a bunch of PURITANS you Americans are! OMG!!! You think THAT was sexual?! HAHAHAHAHA! Sheesh! Unbelievable. I can just imagine what your reaction would be to some of the commercials I've seen in other countries. There's a great one running right now in Romania with a girl who's about 8 years old doing a striptease and a pole dance as a public service announcement to parents to educate their children about sex at an early age. There's an ad that was running in Sweden for a long time with a girl who looks like she's masturbating while she's on the phone. No one was going out and raping people because of the ad. GROW UP!
