Axl is on Budweiser advertising


Recommended Posts

And the ultimate winner on the forum today is Budweiser!

I'm not going to drink that shit beer just because Axl sold his soul to them.

But your talking about it along with every other gnr fan who follows twitter or forums and such :)

Maybe you don't know how marketing works. We're discussing Axl ridiculing himself in the ad, not how good or bad Budweiser is. I thought it was a shit beer before the ad and I still think it's a shit beer after.

Budweiser's alright, becks is the worst beer out there apart from tesco value. How many non post-96 or even lingering casual gnr fans will recognize that as Axl Rose let alone non fans, they'll think it's just a generic actor pretending to be a rockstar, suppose paradise city gives it away, might've used the original but that would've opened a can of worms.

I never said anything about how good or bad Budweiser is? Just said they are winning with the commercial because it's getting gnr fans talking and watching there commercial.. How else is marketing suppose to work? One individual (you) not buying there product means jack, if so they wouldn't make commercials lol.

you know what, this is cringe stuff but it's no worse than Brad pitt advertising aftershave or any other pop star advertising viagra or whatever. This is probably going to be mocked but at least Bud think that Axl is still a big enough star to sell their product... maybe it's a good thing.

If Axl has no integrity for this commercial then I would hate to see Slash's level of integrity at this point :lol:

Seriously? It's really not that bad. Axl isn't performing the awful "rendition" of the song, so I don't see the big deal. Celebrities make appearances in commercials all the time, and it is a commercial in Brazil where a lot more people praise and recognize him.

Just another mole-hill made into a mountain, it seems.

Agreed. Well said.

Axl does actually sing one line in the song as a background vocal.
