Old Navy Ad Description
Spring 2012 commercial for Old Navy featuring their new line of shoes called Pop-Kicks. If you notice, it’s set in a lab at “Old Navy Funnovations” where different kinds of parties are sectioned off. The pary they’re focusing on in this commercial is the summer picnic party. The “hostest with the mostest”, in the adorable blue dress, do you recognize her? Have you ever watched the tv show Reno 911? That’s Sgt. Johnson, aka actress Wendi McLendon. After our hostess talks about Old Navy shoes, everybody starts having fun and dancing to the song Footloose.
Update:
I thought this was interesting. Old Navy also released the same commercial in Spanish called “Old Navy Presenta: Día de Zapatillas Pop Kicks en el Parque” Everything is exactly the same, but all of the speaking is in Spanish, and instead of Wendi McLendon, it’s a different Latina actress in the exact same blue dress.
