Disturbingly Obvious Cross-Marketing

Big_vibrator Well, given the frenzy of marketing that is happening around the "Sex And The City" movie, and the presence of a character named Mr. Big, I guess you could just call this the next logical step. Yes, that is a picture of the Mr. Big vibrator, and yes, it's aptly named. Surely this can't be the first sex toy with this particular moniker, right? I would never recommend that you type "Mr. Big Vibrator" into Google, but if you did, I'm guessing you'd get a pretty wide range of options. The only thing that surprises me is that it isn't pink, and possibly glittery.

Kudos to the sex toy company for recognizing an opportunity when they saw one. I wonder what Chris Noth thinks of this. I mean, it's no Victoria's Secret Lingerie, but it is a little... obvious.

Sorry Victoria; Chris Noth Is Just Not That Into You

Chrisnoth Fans of "Sex And The City" and Victoria's Secret may be forced to make a horrible choice. Their frilly ass, or their dreams of bagging the elusive Mr. Big? It turns out that Chris just isn't a big fan of Vicky's, and he's not afraid to say so.

"I'm not into Victoria's Secret so much. I find it over the top. I like subtlety and I like elegance.
"I think their things are gaudy and they are really trying too hard. If I could make a fashion statement, I think that Victoria's Secret looks to me like somebody who is putting on too much make-up. It's too gaudy, man.
"I mean, come on take it easy, you don't have to have a f**kin' bouquet of flowers on your underwear. Sorry Victoria's Secret; I hope they're not one of our sponsors!"

I'll be honest with you kids, I can't disagree with his Bigness. When it comes to lingerie less is more and Victoria's Secret has never shown any indication that restraint is one of their watchwords. Still, is this really the right move to make while on the PR Bataan Death March for what they keep telling us is The! Movie! Event! Of! The! Century!? First SJP comes down against rich people and now this? What's next, is the neurotic redheaded one going to go on Leno and tell us all that Cosmopolitans are a crappy drink and Ferragamos pinch her toes? Is nothing sacred?
