@intereactive haha bit behind the times buddy, American racial rights groups were commenting that this ad protrays the typical African American stereotype, even though they are from the west indies.
It just sealed the racist thing when he said 'Too easy' and believe it or not u idiiots - its racist to categorize Black ppl as the chicken lovers thats grouping ppl by race which may i remind u is actually illegal. He also sed 'akward situation' and im sure he wasnt talking about the fact that he was wearing yellow smh
@tempPEBO yes he was you see he's an Australia at the cricket sitting in an allocated seat unfortunately that seat is also where the fans of the opposing team (The West Indies) are sitting there as well. "too easy" is a common slang term in Australia so stop judging a book by its cover and actually look at the context of the ad.
@tempPEBO Ur ignorant if u think tht the problem was that he was wearing yellow. Im not starting a fight or anything but maybe the casting director or sumtn is just stupid to c that the ad could be misinterpreted. But hey - thats just me
@tempPEBO the whole point of the ad is that he's an Australian fan surrounded by fans of the West Indies (hence the different shirt colours he's wearing a 1970's cricket shirt)
im from australia, and im white. anyone who doesnt get how this is racist, seek therapy. i watched this ad when it came on tv live, and they got so many complaints it only came on tv 3 times.
@todosbien the assumption that a white man is in an uncomfortable situation around several black people, and that they can won over with a bucket of chicken.
@maxbarnett000@tempPEBO the whole point of the ad is that he's an Australian fan surrounded by fans of the West Indies (hence the different shirt colours he's wearing a 1970's cricket shirt) skin colour has nothing to do with it
@maxbarnett000 uncomfortable because hes team is losing and his oposition is cheering so he shared hes lunch with them, FUCK SAKE U WHINY BITCH THE ONLY REASON U SEE THIS AS RACIST IS BECAUSE UR FUCKING RACIST. Is this how u cunts act if someone gives out free food???? Harden the fuck up u woosy cunts who think this is racist.
This is NOT racist. I mean, first off, this aired in Australia, where they don't even HAVE that stereotype, and it's racist in itself to say it's racist to have a black man anywhere NEAR Fried Chicken.
This was about a guy who stumbled into the wrong supporter group and decided to make friends with some delicious chicken.
The sterotype of black ppl and fried chicken is an american one......I mean, who the fuck doesnt like fried chicken....or watermelon for that matter (ripping off chris rock :-P)
Omg, we have a cricket match against the West Indies that is sponsered by KFC which has chicken and..uhm...wow, I can not for the life of me figure out how to NOT include chicken in the advert.
Interesting to note that I couldn't see a single African American in that ad either...where the the insult?
What if an African American was batting for Australia and the crowd was chickens and they were eating crumbed Australians? See, it can be done tastefully and not offend anyone. I just don't think that the ad company was trying hard enough.
... how is that racist? if i was surrounded by people i didnt know and wanted to mingle id totally be all. dude have some kfc and theyd be like FUCK YEA! then id be like yay i have friends and my mom would be like no you dont go get a job and then id cry
Brilliant!! I would do this too except when I finished with the bucket I would cut two holes in it and wear it like a helmet and then I would go into bat for Australia and everybody would be my friend and my mum would say 'why don't you go and work for the public service, I would feel a lot better if you had a stable job' and I would say 'don't worry mum, cause I'm opening for Australia'. And then we would all laugh.
That would be racist in America but not in Australian because Aussies say so. They also murder wogs in the park and claim they would have been just as happy to murder anybody else, too. What do you expect from a country founded by criminals?
@AnarchoCannibal haha yeah America is sooo much better because they were founded by "Christians" and probably have the highest murder rate of all first world countries, and have more guns than people oh and we cant forget that the amazing Americans have the most homeless and don't forget the "best" health care system in the world! (not) A country that was founded by criminals turned out a hell of a lot better than the country that was founded by Christians...
@AnarchoCannibal oh and u seem to have the story about the wog murdered in the park wrong too. it was and Indian murdered by a wog. and u know what Australia does have some racism just like all countries but nothing like America the founder of the KKK not to mention the rape and pillage of American Indians, i know Australia did that to the aboriginals but we were just following your lead!
@AnarchoCannibal And our government apologized to the aboriginals on our national Sorry day! Has Obama (even though he is a good president so far) apologized to the American Indians. Not that i have heard of!
@AnarchoCannibal Yeah fuck america. Fucked up healthcare. Fucked up welfare system. Fucked up economy. Gas guzzlin cars. Trillions of dollars in debt.
A country started by Christian Pilgrims... but was built on the backs of African Slaves. For without the slaves to build up the early American economy... america wouldnt be where it is today. Itl be a 3rd world country. Fuck america. This ad aint racist. Im a Polynesian. Brown & PROUD.
Founded by criminals? Where the hell did YOU go to school. Oh right, that's coz it has not occured to anyone else that apparently the Spanish founded America, the Dutch founded Aust, but England sent folks to both and sent criminals FIRST to America till they needed a more secure location and figured Aust as an island would do fine. And just fyi, they're called Aboriginals, not wogs, and plenty of people are murdered round here. I think a lot are murdered there too. ffs, it's global humanity
hahahaha, why would you be pissed about that? your the real racists. You assume all white people think that way ever thought that mabey we don't? and they just tryin to sell some friggin chicken?
He's sharing his chicken with some fans from the other team to shut them up. What's the big deal and who in this day and age is concerning themselves with skin colour? We are all people in this world together and some healthy competition on the sportsfield should be where are differences are left.
This is no big deal AT ALL here in the US, whatever the media says. I only heard it was an issue by checking out Yahoo Australia. You won't find Americans watching much Aussie TV- good as it can be- or getting worked up about Australian commercials. If you hear otherwise, you can pretty much figure someone is going for a story. It would be interesting to know why this fellow chose this particular seat, and why he doesn't just move, but if he likes to work out things with KFC, who cares?
People can find racism in anything. Why not find something constructive to do instead of whining? And whatever happened to "sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me"? Take off your sensitivity hat and get over it!
This spot has got NOTHING to do with skin colour. It's a lighthearted poke at being surrounded by passionate supporters of an opposing team, going to air while the West Indies team were competing against Australia. Leeds could run a similar ad being surrounded by Manchester United fans. Sorry, that is a different race.
This is both American culture and stupidity being transplanted into an ad in a place where it doesn't make sense. Somehow, an Australian ad with an Aussie in a West Indies crowd has been interpreted as the racist American stereotype where all African-Americans eat fried chicken. Except there's no African-Americans. That's as racist calling a Japanese guy a Chinaman
This ad shouldn't be offensive to the politically correct americans because I think the people of the West Indies are negro not AFRICAN AMERICAN and obviously are of a higher intelegence.
Not only mad but irrational. Racist in this context is an undistributed statement. America has a blackish president therefore not all Americans are racist. A bit more logic and a bit less bad language would be helpful. I speak merely as a chicken of course.
Haha yea us chickens gotta stick together! lol and a HUGE yes to the language thing! its sad how any language is acceptable now. also just speaking as a chicken!!! hahaha luv it
As an Australian chicken I find this ad highly offensive and believe it should be removed. How would you like to see your relations fried in bits and displayed in a bucket?
Nice. I was in fact drinking a beer at the time of posting my insightful comments. Drunk + bored = profound insight. Also Fuckwit is an Australian term recently added to the American vernacular. Not quite sure how the use of it could be regarded as racist but give me a couple of beers and I'll tell ya.
what the heck? look personally i'm neither a cricket fan nor that darkly skin coloured. so i spose it makes sense for me not to be bothered by this ad. i can understand maybe some people feel sensitive in various ways. i though it was funny cause like he has no idea what is going on and so hes speaks one of the few universal languages to not feel awkward..... food!. i think it's just an ad and there has been a bit too much overreacting about it.
Totally ridiculous! assuming this is a racist ad is racist! Viewed in conjunction with KFC's other ad's, it is obvious that it is not stereo typing black people as fried-chicken eaters. Even if it was... give a damn! I had an American friend that believed we all rode kangaroos to school. Offensive? No. Amusing? Yes.
You're an idiot Hotdogguy. I rode a kangaroo to school for three years while my emu was sick with gout. My grandfather rode a kangaroo at Gallipoli and I find it offensive that you find that amusing. Also margarine is black until they bleach it yellow. What is wrong with black margarine?
Your a racist hotdogguy! Pure and simple. Why don't you go back to your volvo driving, honky, quiche eating Toorak mansion where you play bowls and drink chardonnay. I am so sick of stereotypes.
wheres the other ad?? the one with the security guard??? me being a security guard find it highly offensive and not all of us in the security industry are idiots that would do any thing for chicken! kfc should be ashamed and should pull the other ad immediately!
@billyfitton I want to appologise on behalf of all white Australians for the offense the security guard ad may have caused you. I understand your position as I am a white Australian and also featured as a stereotype in the other ads. When will all this bigotry end?
Only black people can like fried chicken? That's racist.
