Wii Fit Girlfriend
I don’t believe Giovanny Gutierrez’s claim that this clip of his “girlfriend” playing with a Wii Fit is a “personal video”. He’s Director of Interactive Media at Tinsley Advertising, and he posted the video on a YouTube account named tinsleyadvertising. That “girlfriend” is Tinsley Advertising employee Lauren Bernat.
I don’t know if Lauren is actually Giovanny’s girlfriend, and I don’t care. This is either a paid ad, or a thinly veiled pitch.
Nevertheless, I don’t mind watching Lauren shake her ass. Mr. Gutierrez may not understand the long-term value of authenticity in online video, but he sure knows what gets our attention in the short term.

Mike,
I have to agree — it doesn’t matter if it was meant to be an advertising pitch or not, it’s what sells.
