The three-minute commercial affectionately called ‘She’ was released by J&B Whiskey. It opens with an elderly man secretly borrowing his wife’s lipstick and trying to apply it to himself in the mirror. As the ad progresses, he reads beauty magazines and continues to carefully practice applying lipstick and eye shadow, gradually perfecting his skills.
No spoilers here ….. just watch until the very end making sure you have a box of kleenex close by.
The Spanish whiskey parent company, Diageo, said the advertisement was to give “visibility to a reality that thousands of people face, including the LGBTQ+ collective, who seek a safe space to be and show themselves openly”.
