Snickers apologies for wildly homophobic commercial | Queer News Tonight

Candy brand Snickers has issued an apology following a new ad in Spain understandably perceived as homophobic. @yahoonews  reports that while Snickers has pulled the ad from broadcast, it continues to circulate on social media. The commercial in question shows an effeminate man (played by Spanish blogger @alessgibajayoutubeoficial  ) at the beach with a friend and ordering “sexy orange juice with vitamins A, B, and C.” The waiter and the friend exchange disgusted, confused looks, before the waiter presents the femme man with a Snickers ice cream bar. The femme man takes one bite and magically transforms into a more masculine, bearded, handsome man.
