It came out when the folks at Good Morning America<\/em> interviewed him\u00a0 “in character” (with his shirt off) but his accent lingered on one word and registered a laugh among all there on the set because they thought this was affected and part of his character. However, he didn’t seem to be in character when he spoke this and because he was on Skype, he didn’t “hear” the response as it was, saying, “Excuse me, I didn’t hear you.” A bit awkward but funny at the same time. When asked what advice would he give Obama for increasing his poll numbers with the ladies? He said, basically lose the shirt! Naw, that won’t do it.<\/p>\n

I agree with this interview that the style of these Old Spice ads are changing the way commercials get clever and cross-connect with social media sources to help companies gain exposure and increase their business<\/a>.
