Nothing Catches the Eye of Michael Jordan More Than Sexy, Well-Shampooed Hair
November 15, 2008
Though Michael Jordan has since surrendered his throne to Peyton Manning, there was once a time when MJ ruled the advertising world as the athlete most likely to appear in a product endorsement. Oh, we still see him from time to time in Hanes commercials and such, but nothing even close to the saturation level it reached during the height of his playing days. By my count he still stands as the most marketable (and marketed) athlete in sports history, and I suspect it’s only a matter of time before he starts popping up in LifeAlert and other age-appropriate product ads, too.
Jordan’s unrepentant mission to sell his soul in exchange for a few more dollars to deposit in his multi-billion dollar banking account aside, this Gentle-Treatment shampoo ad from 1986 is, quite simply, amazing.
(A hearty ETB hat tip to I Love This Game 2.0 for the find.)
