We Heart Calvin Klein’s Threesome Billboard
Those of you who don’t live in downtown New York may not be familiar with the new Calvin Klein Jeans billboard gracing a corner in Soho. Let me explain: the thing is enormous, taking up the entire side of a building, and its four scantily-clad participants look just about ready to have a tired, drunken threesome. (Well, three of them might, anyway. The fourth dude is just so over it and needs a nap on the ground.) In short, it is incredibly hot in a sweaty, semi-trashy way. And sometimes, that’s all you need.
But certain local prudes and mommies are pissed about the billboard and its potentially corrupting content, no doubt concerned that their stroller-bound infants will drop trou upon seeing it and run off in search of an orgy. We understand that the ad isn’t exactly the most PC one around, but the request to take it down seems a bit over the top, doesn’t it? And why is anyone at all shocked that Calvin Klein—long time purveyor of risque ads—has got a little threesome action going on? This is, after all, the guy who brought us topless Kate Moss in her skivvies way back when she was, like, five. Get over it.

Actually, the ad is pretty progressive. It is a woman having her way with several men. Female pleasure taking center stage. Usually you’d see orgies depicting a guy with more than one woman and girl on girl action for male pleasure. This ad doesn’t do that. Props to CK.

CK ran a similar ad (though with only two guys) back in the 80s and received similar flak. Cool ad altogether, though the guys could be a little less effeminate.

I’ve got a CK shirt on my back today. Just no 4-somes for me though.

Hipbones hipbones everywhere, and not a hamburger to eat! This does not make me want to buy jeans. Will they fit if my hipbones don’t jut out past my concave stomach?

The only thing that bothers me are the girl’s thighs - is she a third grader? Ick.

I couldn’t get past her skeletal arm. I mean, I’m thin but I’ve always prided myself on having flesh on my bones.

I think its vulgar and disgusting. I would like it if it were in a magazine, but on a giant blown up billboard where teenage kids get ideas. Do you want your pre-teen gawking at this? Its saying, buy these shorts, you’ll look like a whore. This whole ad is just disturbing to me, what happened to pure love ads, where it was just the guy and the girl sweetly starring into eachothers eyes. Maybe i’m lame like that, but that makes me feel like I want to be in love & I should buy those jeans. Not, I want to get f*ked by 3 guys, let me buys those daisy dukes.

I’m gonna have to disagree since the three on the couch look like they’re THIRTEEN YEARS OLD….just wrong, dude. Oh and to sadie, the girl looks reallly uncomfortable while the guys are mostly chillin. Much like an everyday porno, the guys seem to be having their way with her.

I agree with most of the comments above. This chick needs a hamburger stat! If she wasn’t stick sized this would be a totally hot ad.

I loved it until I realized the girl looks 8. With implants. At least Kate Moss looks human. Ignoring that, it’s totally hot.
