Ewwww! – Iggy Pop’s Insurance Peddling Antics

My only reaction every single time this idiotic ad for swiftcover, the UK Insurance company came on was “What the F@&*?!?!?”  This has got to be the worst ad I’ve ever seen, very worthy of the switch-the-channel-everytime-it-comes-on habit.  Yech.  And Iggy Pop… what the hell were you thinking?

The first comment on the Youtube Video site sums it up pretty well.

Oh Iggy what have you done?
You were THAT desperate for cash?
‘Get a life’?
This sort of life? Not exactly the same as Lust for Life is it Iggy?
Any other lifestyle recommedations Iggy, like McDonalds or Starbuck?

Indeed.

    What was funny is that a the insurance company doesn’t cover musicians.

      I didn’t know that. That’s hilarious! Another example of hypocritical marketing tactics to sell products. I hate when people destroy the values of the industry by pulling shit like this. Marketing gets a bad rap because of these people.
