WATCH the PULLED Mary J Blige Burger King ad

This commercial has caused some serious drama. Many claim the ad is stereotypical and close to "cooning". Burger King pulled the ad, but I have it for you to see

Mess

I don't get it. Because she's black and it fried chicken strips?

Are they also thinking that MJB was used and had no idea what she was doing or portraying?

Upon seeing it for the first time, I wasn't offended by it. I do think she's better than a BK fast food chain though. It was obviously for the money. How can one sell products that they don't even use?

Mick D is pushing more of its fast food to the black community using a black celeb.Same shit, different flava, literally.

I agree with Sean.

That's the problem with this country, everybody gets offended so easily. I saw it as a commercial. Which is what it should have been about.
