Gotta love the Tweedy

Look! Cheryl Tweedy is the new face of Coca Cola Zero!





I think she looks very nice in her suit. There is actually a commercial reason for this outburst of cross-dressing: I read in the Metro today (which has a bigger picture and an article about the campaign) that Coke Zero is being marketed as 'bloke coke', a sugar-free alternative to Diet Coke without its feminine connotations.

Also, the common discomfort (I think) an insecure non-liberated man feels to women in drag is something along the lines of,

"Wow she's hot. Wait.. she kind of looks like a guy. And is dressed like a guy. Does this mean I'm queer? Better bench some press, just to be safe."

haha.. bench some press..

That's interesting. It will be intriguing to see how the male target audience does actually respond to this campaign. I don't think they will feel threatened because it's Cheryl Tweedy and she normally has quite a feminine image. I think they will mainly be amused by the way the campaign plays on gender. I don't think gender is something that should be taken too seriously.
