Burger Flippers Flipping Over Federline Ad


The National Restaurant Association has chastised Nationwide Mutual Insurance over an upcoming Super Bowl ad.

The ad reportedly features Kevin Federline, AKA The Artist Formerly Known As Mr. Britney Spears, living the life of a rap star, only to wake up at the end of the commercial to discover he's a lowly employee at a "down and out fast food restaurant."

You know what, NRA? We're with you on this one. Not only is this ad demeaning, but it ignores the long and glorious tradition of dignified depictions of fast-food workers in the media.

Not to mention that your average fast-food worker makes way more an hour than TAFKAMBS's last album made.
