  ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Save me from the annoying Slim Fast woman! The lyrics sound like they’ve been written by a twelve year old. And if you’re gonna eat 24/7 of COURSE you’re gonna be fat!

  That’s all I got to, I couldn’t stand to listen anymore.

  From the looks of her she’s advertising a product called “Stay-Fat”.

  It’s so depressing that there are armies of stupid women out there who are actually taken in by adverts for this kind of shit, so desperate for something to foist their insecurities upon and momentarily relive their utter despondency, in the belief that the simple act of a transactional purchase of Product X is actively “doing something” about their weight. The worst thing about them is that they perpetuate this lunatic idea that things like chocolate bars, crisps etc should be coveted at all – nevermind the fallacy that they’re “low fat”. You stay slim and healthy by eating fruit and vegetables, excercising portion control, and above all EXERCISING, you stupid bovine fucking cunts, not eating low-fat, low-calorie rubbish devoid of any nutritional value. For shite like Slim-Fast to be effective on its own, without you moving your lardarse from the sofa from time to time, you’d have to stay on the plan forever and you’d die in your 50s due to the lack of nutrients. Stupid sheep-like CUNTS.

  To be fair, Sue, I think it’s fat people in general Michael has a problem with. It’s just that Slim-Fast target women fair specifically. Am I wrong? Am I wrong?

  Said on the 1 February 2008

  Sue and Silky, I really don’t have a problem with “fat” people. What I do have a problem with is the glut of “overweight” people I work with who simply refuse to accept that they are that way because a) they eat too much shit, and b) they don’t do any exercise.

  The kind of stupid CUNTS who think that STUPID SHITTY EXPENSIVE diet programmes with colour-coordinated “days” are going to make them lose and keep lost weight. Stupid thick CUNT CUNT FUCKERCUNT FUCKCUNT BITCHARSEHOLE FUCKCOWCUNTFUCKERMONGS.

  The advert itself doesn’t really annoy me, It’s the faux Kate Nash / Lily Allen talking to music, but not actually singing that’s wank. They’re shit and so it this ad

  Didn’t think SLIMFAST could come up with a more annoying ad than the last one, but they managed it with ease, I’m with Michael, this sort of shortcut rubbish does not work in the long term only a complete ovehaul of your eating habits and exercise regime will do you any good.

  Said on the 6 February 2008

  The ad sends the message that there is an easy way to lose weight. It makes me cringe. The advert annoyed me with the slightly overweight woman dancing around and singing about eating 24/7 and chunky chocolate bars giving the impression that you don’t have to change your ways. The truth is you have to save unhealthy food for the odd treat and get out and do a bit of exercise.I do have a bit more sympathy with overweight people than Michael. It can be hard to lose weight if you get into bad habits but I think these ads are dispicable as they take advantage of the vunerable! The product is shite so I suppose the adverts are bound to be.

  This ad actually makes me want to put ON weight instead of losing it, and I have the build of a sumo wrestler.

  I think the woman that’s on this advert is the same one that was advertising this crap about 6 months ago on another Slim Fast advert. She was fat then and she’s still fat now.
  I can only think that if she walked to the shops to buy her Slob Fast, instead of getting her fat ‘booty’ into her (probably) specially designed car, she might lose a pound (in weight, as opposed to £££s).

  As a stay at home mum I find anything remotely aimed at my demographic entirely offensive. As if I’d got to Iceland because Katona does? Why would I want to watch Loose Women or GMTV. I certainly don’t wish to read Take a Break/ Having children does not rob you of every brain cell. I wish the media would realise this. I’m sure there must be other housewives frustrated at the lack of any kind of mental stimulation out there!

  tootie fruity stick a stiff cock up her booty and then she might be satisfied….. instead of a low cal fruit bar how about a nice juicy lump of coal in between meals…..isnt it about time these adverts were taken off our screens so that the fat people of this world can no longer have an exscuse to sit on their back sides and nibble these shite bars all bloody day long….what the fat people need is six months intensive training with the parachute regiment…….or possibly a couple of years in prison hey thats not a bad idea if your fat they put you down for a couple of years that way the weighjt lose wopuld be very fast especially if they are given bread and water only….so bugger off slimfast my idea’s a whole lot better and its cheaper too……

  I know it’s only a 30 second ad but it seems to last for fucking ever. If they’d stopped after “Walking tall” then I might not hate it so bloody much. That seemed like the logical stopping point.

  I think the song is good. I actually searched the internet to look for it. I like the way the cymbal is struck on “funky”. I think it’s sexy and the song doesn’t offend me.

  Having said that, I found the above comments v. amusing and guess it’s true that it doesn’t portray a very sophisticated approach to excessive consumption. I hadn’t really noticed that she wants chocolate bars and the like. In its defence she’s not waif-like. But on balance it’s ludicrous (I still really like the song though).

  Hang on, you actually took time out of your life to LOOK for this ad?!

• JV

  

  Said on the 20 May 2008

  Mmm, ‘fraid so. Major C chord going to A minor flat 5 which is a blues chord, basically it goes from a major chord to a barely-related blues chord, again and again and again. Repetition in the music accords with the lyrics on screen, like a sing-a-long for kids but hipper and swinging.

  It’s also got a latin american type beat, the musical beat is one step behind the lyrics, tick (beat), tock (beat) etc. The cymbal’s always on beat (coinciding with her voice). Nice drum intro too (with her dancing in background).

  There’s a call and response element to it (as used in catholic church, gospel music). The call is on the major C chord “fruity tooty?”. The response: “now my jeans fit my bootie”. Each call isn’t advertising. Each response is. Each call is questioning, since the melody goes up like a question. Each response answers, the melody going down, the implication being that the answer is slim fast.

  There’s a sixties feel to it (compare lava lamps, bright red plastic chairs) which may accord with their demographics.

  I think it’s got great production values. Talent used for the purveyance of tosh. I think it’s fantastic.

  An interesting, erudite and generally correct analysis of the ‘Booty’ song from JV.

  Still, I’d rather be a crewmate on the starship ‘Event Horizon’ than ever listen to this song again.

  Said on the 22 May 2008

  My sentiments exactly. I was a music student. but nothing on earth could make me listen to that song enough to analyse it like that.

  I’m sorry my ad offended you so much. I suppose you’re the kind of people who hated my son in his advert, for Frosties, “They’re gonna taste great”. After a rash of rather nasty YouTube incidents, my little pumpkin’s advert was pulled, never to be shown again and now he’s in therapy thanks to you.

  And I’m not fat I’m just big boned.

  While the ‘fruity, tooty’ line is bad, the ‘oi, boy’ line is just so mind-numbingly vapid that I perpetually feel an overwhelming need to readjust the shape of my head with a twelve-pound sledgehammer whenever it plays. Any song which includes the words ‘oi, boy’ together should be banned under the geneva convention.

  Wow… I’d call this a successful advert given the response its got.

  So it is annoyingly catchy. Everyone dislikes it (or at least tries too)
  It’s outrageous that Slim Fast imply that you can eat it anytime you like.
  Michael has a good point about getting off the sofa doing light exercise and eating sensibly.
  Though I think you ought to consider that some of the vulnerable women (myself included in this)
  have various conditions (menopause etc) and no matter how much exercise or how little / sensibly we eat.. some of us just are what we are. Just because you see a few unmotivated women in your office doesn’t mean you’ve got the right to be so abusive.
  Re: the woman on the advert and you calling her fat.. GET A REALITY CHECK!!!
  She looks like an average woman to me.
  Take a look in the mirror.. bet you don’t look like Brad Pitt do you?

  Well Micheal, you may be beautiful and young (man I wish I could be a fly on the wall the day you wake up and realise its all caught up with you) but your boasting about it just further shows that you have absolutely no comprehension of anything other than yourself.
  It must be wonderful to live life where the world rotates around you.
  Considering that 40-50 year olds are the majority in this country you must have a glorious time throwing verbal abuse around.
  I have to admit that I am further surprised by your saying that you’ve 34 (Brad Pitt is 44 – 10 = 34)
  As your use the English language, further emphasised by the adolescent use of caps locks led me to believe that you were around 12 years of age.

  Clearly my mistake.

  @ Kirsty I’m thrilled that at someone enjoys the advert

  This advert is just another way for morons to bury their heads in the sand.

  YOU ARE FAT, DON’T TRY TO SUGAR COAT IT ‘COS YOU’LL EAT THAT TOO.

  “Meh, I’m big boned” Really, Big boned. So why are you eating diet shit? Trying to shrink your bones?

  “Wah, It’s glandular” Ok, can anyone point to the Pie eating gland? Anyone at all?

  I’m 34 year old 6′ tall and 15 stone, yep I have a belly, but I say fuck it. I go to the gym and walk dogs at an animal shelter, so I’m healthy. If you want to change your shape, go to your doctor and get them to refer you to a dietican, oh and learn to cook real food instead of sitting infront of the TV/Computer eating quick meals.
